Hi, 

 

I have installed the last visual studio update (15.7.6), and after this, Telerik Reporting Controls dissappear from Toolbox. I have removed and reinstall reporting, but the problem continues.

 

I have this problem on my 2 computers, both, updated to vs 15.7.6 and both with missing reporting controls. All other telerik wpf controls is working fine, only reporting controls that is missing.

 

Help me please!

We are evaluating whether we can use Telerik reporting as our reporting platform going forward. In working with reports and the report designer, we've run across questions between the two report file types (.trdp and .cs files). The questions we have are:

  • If we are starting to create our reports today, which is the "preferred" type to use?
  • Can Telerik Reporting Server handle .cs files?
  • Is there a way to convert between the two types (either way)? If so, can you link documentation as we are unable to find it.
  • What are the differences between the file types? And what are the intended use cases?
  • Do they both support templates - both code and/or styling?

Thanks.

We are evaluating Telerik Reporting for various reporting scenarios.  In one of the meetings it was asked if there was a way to set a textbox of a specific size (cangrow = false, canshrink=false, and the area being used is set appropriately) and have the size of the text automatically determined so that all of the text can be displayed within the defined area at the greatest possible font size.

From what I can tell there is not an easy way to accomplish this but I might be able to define a number of conditional rules to the textbox that check the length of the text and apply an appropriate style.  While this would work I don't think that it is the easy solution they are looking for.  This would be more of a trial and error scenario that could be very time consuming and difficult to maintain.  Is there a better alternative that I am just not seeing.

I want to build a System.Data.DataTable in my report code to display some quick summary data. I would like to bind the System.Data.DataTable to a Telerik.Reporting.Table and have the columns and rows automatically generated, but I can not figure out how to get it to work.

I keep finding bits and pieces of code, but nothing that shows me what I need to do from end to end. For example, http://docs.telerik.com/reporting/object-data-source-how-to-bind-to-data-table shows a way of doing the binding, but does not indicate what needs to be done on the design side so it is not working for me.

Does anyone have a quick (and full) example that will point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am very new to Telerik.  I am trying to add a report that I created, into a reportviewer programatically and I was able to successfully do it with a static "Hello World" report.  Now my problem is I am trying the same but this time with a report requiring several parameters and the report is not displaying in the viewer.

Here is my code below.  I have also attached the output on my browser.  I would appreciate it if anyone can point out whatever I am missing, with some examples.  I am sure it something very silly that I completely missed out.  Thanks.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!IsPostBack)
    {
        Telerik.ReportViewer.Html5.WebForms.ReportSource rptSource = new Telerik.ReportViewer.Html5.WebForms.ReportSource();
        rptSource.IdentifierType = Telerik.ReportViewer.Html5.WebForms.IdentifierType.TypeReportSource;
        rptSource.Identifier = typeof(SellThroughSummary).AssemblyQualifiedName;
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("CoName","Beside LLC");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("BrandDes", "ALL");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("SeasonDes", "SS18");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("StoreDes", "TDM-D");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("GenDes", "ALL");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("CatDes", "ALL");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("Descr", "ALL");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("FromDt", "2018-01-01");
        rptSource.Parameters.Add("ToDt", "2018-01-31");
 
        this.ReportViewer1.ReportSource = rptSource;
 
        Telerik.Reporting.SqlDataSource sqlDataSource = new Telerik.Reporting.SqlDataSource();
        sqlDataSource.ProviderName = "System.Data.SqlClient";
        sqlDataSource.ConnectionString = "ReportLibrary.Properties.Settings.ReportServer";
        sqlDataSource.SelectCommand = "MIS_SellThru";
        sqlDataSource.SelectCommandType = Telerik.Reporting.SqlDataSourceCommandType.StoredProcedure;
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("CoName", System.Data.DbType.String, "Beside LLC");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("BrandDes", System.Data.DbType.String, "ALL");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("SeasonDes", System.Data.DbType.String, "SS18");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("StoreDes", System.Data.DbType.String, "TDM-D");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("GenDes", System.Data.DbType.String, "ALL");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("CatDes", System.Data.DbType.String, "ALL");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("Descr", System.Data.DbType.String, "ALL");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("FromDt", System.Data.DbType.String, "2018-01-01");
        sqlDataSource.Parameters.Add("ToDt", System.Data.DbType.String, "2018-01-31");
        sqlDataSource.CommandTimeout = 0;
    }       
}

I am currently evaluating your reporting tool.

I am building a report that has a webservice as the data source. The response object is json. For some reason the report designer does not parse an array within json. The element recentScans is not parsing properly. Attached is an image showing the data explorer. 

 

Here is data result for reference:

We are interested to develop a reporting solution with following details:

  • Database should be Cloud DB Service (Google Cloud MySQL Database)
  • Development Tool should be ASP.NET Core 2.1 Web API
  • Application will be deployed on Cloud App Service (Google Cloud App Engine - GCE )
  • We may need reports in PDF and Excel format.

 

Can we use Telerik Reporting? If not then kindly suggest solution (We can consider to develop reporting services in Full .NET Framework but it will be deployed on GCE).

 

Thanks and Regards,

I'm using a stored procedure with 3 parameters for my report. When I configured my SqlDataSource, the data returned by the 3 parameters was correct, however the report does not change when I preview with different values. What am I missing?

 We are using the reporting tool to create dynamic reports/bills.

 

We have an automated system that creates bills and emails them every night with no issues.

 

The issue is when a user needs to manually generate the bill or any other report in IE/chrome/FF.  Randomly all reports (We have about 20 different ones)  start having caching issues and when any report generates it will have missing letters, random boxes, etc....

 

We perform an IISreset and it resolves it temporarily. 

 

When they click generate we have the URL creating a unique URL and also have the report engine not caching.

 

Any ideas as to how to solve this caching issue?
