For very large TM1 models the technical documentation can run into 1000’s of pages, this can cause issues with the rendering the report.

One of the time consuming parts of rendering the reports is calculating the header and footer. If when running the report you receive a blank page you can adjust a couple of settings that will allow the report to run.

To turn off the header and footer check the boxes as shown in the screenshot below.

To turn off the header and footers for all reports you can change the setting in the Pulse.cfg file.

1. Go to the Pulse.cfg file that is located in the conf directory where Pulse is installed (default: C:Program FilesPulse for TM1conf).
2. Edit the file with Notepad.
3. Change 2 settings to true:

   [PDF]
   DisableFooter = true
   DisableHeader = true 

4. Save the file. You may need to save the file to your Desktop first and then copy the file to the conf directory due to Windows file restrictions.
5. Restart the Pulse for TM1 Application Server Windows service.
6. Run the report again.
