15 NESMA 带有摘要信息的外部输出 案例分析

15 EXTERNAL OUTPUTS WITH SUMMARY INFORMATION（带有摘要信息的外部输出）

译文

本例涵盖了两种情况：一种是摘要信息不被视为单独的外部输出，另一种是它被视为独立的外部输出。

15.1 摘要信息不作为单独的外部输出

Problem description

可以生成以下报告：

这个报表包含未知的页数。欧洲、亚洲和其他汇总项在底部显示。
有多少外部输出？ 报告中的聚合信息应作为单独的功能计算，还是作为相同的外部输出计算？

讨论

这里只有一个外部输出。没错，它由两个部分组成，但这些部分具有相同的布局。此外，欧洲、亚洲和其他地区的汇总信息与报告的其余部分有着千丝万缕的联系，这意味着有一个产出产品的章节无法单独检索。为了打印所需的信息，不会访问其他逻辑文件。信息可以直接从相同的逻辑处理中导出。标准指出，在这种情况下，只应确定一项外部产出。

解决方案

计算一个外部输出

15.2 摘要信息作为单独的外部输出

问题描述

一个应用程序可以产生如下报表：

这里是显示一个外部输出，还是有更多？聚合信息是否应在报告中作为单独的功能计算，或者此处是否涉及相同的外部输出？

讨论

这个报表由一个包含两个部分的输出产品组成。第一部分列出了在某一天发生的所有交易。第二部分提供了每日总计，但也显示了前一年发生的某种交易数量，以及平均每天发生的交易数量。这两个部分的布局不同。根据指南，如果可以单独检索这些部分，或者通过不同的逻辑处理实现这些部分，则应计算两个外部输出。在这种情况下，无法单独检索节。但是，由于第二节中使用的数据不包含在第一节中，因此涉及不同的逻辑处理。准则指出，因此应在此确定两项外部输出。

解决方案

计算两个外部输出。

原文

Two situations are covered with in this example: one in which the summary information is not considered a separate external output and one in which it is.

15.1 Summary information not counted as a separate External Output（摘要信息不作为单独的外部输出）

Problem description

he following report can be produced:

The report consists of an unknown number of pages. The totals for Europe, Asia, and Other are printed at the bottom.
How many external outputs appear here? Should the aggregated information on the report be counted as a separate function or is it the same external output?

Discussion

There is only one external output here (the report). True enough, it consists of two sections, but the sections have the same layout. Additionally, the summarizing information for Europe, Asia, and Other are inextricably bound to the rest of the report, meaning that there is one output product whose sections are not individually retrievable. No additional logical files are accessed in order to print the information desired. The information can be derived directly from the same logical processing. The guidelines indicate that only one external output should be identified in this situation.

Solution

Count one external output.

15.2 Summary information counted as a separate External Output（摘要信息作为单独的外部输出）

Problem description

An application produces the following report:

Does one external output appear here, or are there more? Should the aggregated information be counted as a separate function on the report or is the same external output involved here?

Discussion

This report consists of one output product containing two sections. The first section is a list of all the transactions that have taken place on a given day. The second section provides daily totals, but also shows how many transactions of a certain kind have taken place in the previous year, in addition to how many per day on average. The two sections have a different layout. According to the guidelines, two external outputs should be counted if the sections can be retrieved individually or if they are realized via different logical processing. In this case, the sections cannot be retrieved individually. However, different logical processing is involved because data is used in the second section that is not contained in the first. The guidelines indicate that two external outputs should be
identified here as a result.

Solution

Count two external outputs.
