TPL Output Format

The TPL output format writes output records formatted according to user-defined templates.

Templates are text files divided into three sections - a header, a body, and a footer - containing variables that refer to the values and names of the output record fields.
During the output generation stage, the TPL output format substitutes the variables with the values of the output record fields, generating text files formatted according to the user specifications.

The flexibility of the TPL output format allows users to generate HTML files, XML files, and generic text files in almost any format.
