How to configure a new status report in cProjects?

Question

First of all, the standard status report PDF is not rendering at all when we generate the status report - we CAN send it with the appropriate data, though, so we know that the program is gathering the data. All of our other custom interactive PDFs are working fine.
Our issue is that we'd like to create a new custom status report but can't figure out how to do it.
We've done the following:
1) create a read only form (zstat_rpt)
2) in SPRO, for our capital and expense project types, we've entered
ZSTAT_RPT in the PDF Print Form sub-folder. Marked it as ACTIVE and
checked the Status Rpt checkbox.
3) Unchecked the DPR_STATUS_REPORT_AIF Status Rpt and Active checkboxes
4) Under Badi: PDF-Based Forms in SPRO, we created a new Enhancement
Implementation (zrp_eimp_stat). It uses BAdi Implementation DPR_STATUSREPORT_AIF
and the description shows as Izrp_eimp_statmplementation: BAdI: PDF-Based Forms
5) In SE19, I go to the badi implementation, into method GET_FORM_NAME and changed
the Returning parameter RV_FORM_NAME to ZSTAT_RPT (my pdf form).
Now, when i go to generate the status report, I get a message "No templates for status reports have been entered for the project type" - I know my project type is capital.
any help on this? any steps I'm missing?

Hi,
   I dont think that we can insert new records in WE47, but we can develop the logic in the idoc population program to add status to the idoc.
   Please let me know if you need the program code.
