Generating report with both current and referenced projects

Agilian enables you to re-use model elements from dependent project in developing your current project. Nevertheless, when you want to generate a project which consists of a few model elements from dependent project in report, image it would be a toil to generate both projects separately since they are independent. With the enhanced feature in Agilian 3.0, you now can generate report for the current and dependent projects all at once. This tutorial will demonstrate you how to generate both dependent and current projects in PDF report once.
