Summary Page Shown as first page in report

[jbro]

Good morning all.  I'm fairly new to jasper reports and am hoping for some guidance.  I'm using jasper as an integrated reporting module that came bundled with a java based insurance claims system called iVOS, so hopefully any suggestions received here will apply to my application. 

Does anyone know if there's a way to have the summary section print as the first page of a report rather then the last?  I've built a very extensive summary page, however my users are requesting that it be made available at the front of the report, rather then having to tell clients who receive an electronic version of the report to scroll to the last page to review summary results.

 

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

 

Pages can be reordered programatically in a generated document (JasperPrint object).

You could put some markers in the document to know what pages to move.

We do something like this in the /demo/samples/tableofcontents sample provided with the JR project, where we move the table of contents pages at the beginning of the document.

 

I hope this helps.
Teodor

Sorry, but I just don't understand HOW you move the page to the top. Could you please give a more detailed instruction than the one above?

I tried to find out more about the JasperPrint, but i just don't get the clue...

 

Thanks in Advance!

Have you checked the /demo/samples/tableofcontents sample, as Teodor suggested? The moveTableOfContents method in TableOfContentsApp.java exemplifies how to programatically rearrange the order of pages in a generated report.
