displaying summary & detail reports headers

[csrnivas]

HI,

This is Srini. I have a scenario like this. I have two reports Detail & Summary Report. Depending upon the user seletion we need to diaplay the respective report. Suppose if the user select Summary we need to display Summart Report, if the used selection is Detail then diaplay Detail & if the user selection is both display both summaty & detail.

For handling this i designed tworeports called summary report & detail Report respectively. I included the detail report as a sub report in the main(Summary) report. i added condition such a way so that if will display the respective reports based on the user selection. Its working fine. But the Clients wants to display columnHeader on each page. I checked the option Print Header on Each Page.  Its working fine for the first two user selections i.e Summary & Detail.

But if the user selects Both, here comes the issue into picture. Its displaying the Summary report with Summary Header, But its diaplaying the Detail Report with both the Summary Header followed by Detail Header. Plz do suggest a solution for this. You can see the Issue given below.

 

 

Summary Report

                                                ACCOUNTS SUMMARY REPORT

ACCOUNT ID                      ACCOUNT NAME                             ACCOUNT BALANCE ($USD)

        101                                       Srini                                                  300

       102                                        Sree                                                 600

 

 

Detail Report

ACCOUNTS DETAIL REPORT

ACCOUNT ID                      ACCOUNT NAME             ACCOUNT BALANCE ($USD)                        BANK BRANCH

        101                                      Srini                                 300                                                                   HYD

       102                                        Sree                                 600                                                                  BAN             

 

When I selected both option the report is being displayed as follows

Both

ACCOUNTS SUMMARY REPORT

ACCOUNT ID                      ACCOUNT NAME                             ACCOUNT BALANCE ($USD)

        101                                      Srini                                                  300

       102                                        Sree                                                 600

ACCOUNTS DETAIL REPORT

ACCOUNT ID                      ACCOUNT NAME                             ACCOUNT BALANCE ($USD)

ACCOUNT ID                      ACCOUNT NAME             ACCOUNT BALANCE ($USD)                        BANK BRANCH

        101                                       Srini                                 300                                                                   HYD

       102                                        Sree                                 600                                                                  BAN             

 

Thanks in Advance.........

I have had this problem when the subreport is put into any header or footer band. I have not found a way around it. However if the subreport is put in the summary band then the "main" report is done and the subreport heading/columns are used.

You can now define multiple instances of the same band, and use a printWhenExpression to select what displays. In your cases, I would make the printWhenExpression select on whether the type of report was detail or summary.
