How can I exclude a "report.specification" from a Report in Enterprise Architect?


I am attempting to generate a data dictionary for a package, but I cannot figure out how to exclude the report that is my data dictionary.

I get this item:

in my generated PDF on the last page:

I have tried Generate Documentation ➜ Exclude Filters ➜ Exclude diagram type and selecting Extended Documentation, Maintenance, and ModelDocument

enter image description here

And I have also tried Generate Documentation ➜ Exclude Filters ➜ Element Filters and adding a filter where the Name Not Equals Data Dictionary

enter image description here

But I still get the "Data Dictionary" page as the last page in my data dictionary.


Solution

  • I do not have enough reputation yet to comment for clarification so I went ahead and tested it on my own

    It works for me (On EA Version 13.1308):

    Package setup with the report specification

    Element Filters set

    (I cannot provide more images as I reached my links limit, just take my word for it, the report specification isn't in the final report)

    Provide each step you are doing to generate your report

    Also, make sure you are not closing the generate Documentation window after setting your filters, as it will remove them
