printing strangely

[jackdawson]

Hi,

 

I have 2 subreports inside the group_req_resp in the master report. I need to add the values returned

from the subreports.

 

Iteration 1:

1st subreport returns 35 and 2nd returns 85 and the master report can sum them up and display as 120.

 

Iteration 2:

1st subreport returns 70 and 2nd subreport returns 286 and the master report displays the sum as 356.

 

Iteration 3:

1st subreport returns 0 and the 2nd subreport returns 4 but the master report cannot add them and shows as 0.

 

The variable that is used to display the sum value is <sum_tot>. This adds the two variables <sum_sub1> and <sum_sub2>.

<sum_sub1> holds the value returned by subreport1 and similarly the <sum_sub2> holds the value from subreport2.

I created an expression for <sum_tot> variable to check

what exactly is happening:

 

($V{sum_sub1}.intValue() == 0)

?

( ($V{sum_sub2}.intValue() == 0)

?

new BigDecimal(9)

:

new BigDecimal(99) )

:

new BigDecimal(999)

 

<sum_tot> prints 999 when both <sum_sub1> and <sum_sub2> are not zero. For the last iteration its printing 9 (i.e., when

<sum_sub1> = 0 and <sum_sub2> = 4.) For some reason, <sum_sub2> is getting equal to zero.

 

<sum_sub1>:

Calculation: System

Expression: $V{sum_sub1}

Reset Type: Group

Reset Group: GROUP_REQ_RESP

 

<sum_sub2>:

Calculation: System

Expression: $V{sum_sub2}

Reset Type: Group

Reset Group: GROUP_REQ_RESP

 

<sum_tot>:

Calculation: System

Expression: new BigDecimal($V{sum_sub1}).add(new BigDecimal($V{sum_sub2}))

Reset Type:None

 

Why is it strange?

 

Please help me.

 

Thanks.

I solved it.

 

I changed the "calculation" property of the <sum_tot> from "System" to "Nothing" and modified the "expression" property.

 

It worked.

 

Thanks JasperForge.
