Hi Ajith,

Please check your Subreport expression, If you are using any parameter like 'ReportDir' from where you are calling your all reports then your subreport expression should be as follow:

Expression: $P{ReportsDir} + "subreport_name.jasper"

Connection Expression: $P{REPORT_CONNECTION}

 

Thanks!

Thanks Duggu

Subreport is also in the same folder .below are the expressions i use 

"repo:QASubReport.jrxml"

$P{REPORT_CONNECTION}

I missed to mention that the sub report is printing when i run the master , but only the text paragraphs ,, without the field that i passed to subreport.

>>without the field that i passed to subreport

You pass parameter of main report to subreport.
You don't pass field.

Question unclear

>>1. Create a parameter "HawbNumber" in master 
It is not need create useless parameter in main report

5. Added  parameter expression   $P{HawbNumber}

Why? You want pass field not parameter main report.
Change expression like $F{myField} -  field of main report
