List of accepted field names for creating report templates in dedicated document editing software
Caution: When creating or modifying ODT templates, pay special attention to the language and locale settings in both document and OS. Due to a technical limitation, the thousands separators may be misinterpreted for floating-point values such as part volume, leading to incorrect values in the finished document.
Important: Field names (and values for the report type) are case-sensitive and must be written in all-capital letters.

The report-type field name
This field is always necessary; otherwise, Netfabb does not recognize the report as valid.
| Field name | Content |
|---|---|
| NETFABB_REPORTTYPE | Permitted values are PLATFORM and PART. A report template can only be of one type. |
Common text field names
These fields are available in both PLATFORM and PART report types.
| Field name | Content |
|---|---|
| NETFABB_ENGINE_BUILDTIME |

Per-part fields
These fields are meant to be used in PART-type reports. They can be used in PLATFORM-type reports or with multiple parts selected at a time, but they may produce unexpected or unusable outputs as a result.
