Selecting New Sample Text
When you initially create a template, you choose a sample of your data to help to define the trap and fields. This sample text is simply a copy of the data you selected. It is not a live view of your data.
If you decide to modify the template at a later date when the report is run again, you will see that the sample matches the data in the old report rather than the report that you are currently viewing. If you find this mismatch distracting, you can choose a new sample line without affecting the rest of your template definition. You can also select a new sample line to add or delete lines from the existing template definition.
NOTE: If you choose to make the sample smaller, Monarch Data Prep Studio will delete any fields that reside outside the new sample.
