We have a "quote" report written in SSRS.  The requirement is to include a "Terms and Totals" section docked to the bottom of the last page of the quote report.

We can't get SSRS to "dock" this "rectangle" based section to the bottom of the page no matter what we try.  Basically we need the "Terms and Totals" section to display on the last page just above the page footer.  If the "Terms and Totals" section will not fit in available space the report should page break with the "Terms and Totals" section docked to the bottom of the new last page.

Can Telerik Reporting help us with this requirement even though our report detail rows are NOT fixed height and need to wrap to multiple physical rows?

Is there a demo report we can look at to determine this?

Thank you in advance

I have a report which contains the following fields:
TotalAdmin (Invoice Total)
tmpInvoicePaymentAmount (Payment Total)

In textBox25 have the following Expression =Sum(Fields.TotalAdmin)
In textBox26 have the following Expression =Sum(Fields.tmpInvoicePaymentAmount)

I need to have textBox27 = textBox25 - textBox26

My data has a decimal 1-5 rating column...what's the best way to go about representing that as stars?  Like not just showing 3 stars, but 3 yellow and 2 grey (know what I mean, always 5)

I've been making pretty good use of Telerik reporting over the past couple of months.  The blend of report bands (ala Crystal Reports) and tablix controls (ala SSRS) is useful.

There's one feature that I'm really missing from SSRS though - placeholders.  See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd207048.aspx

It brings two key benefits
1. The ability to easily mix formatting of text within a single textbox.  Thus you could bold a bit of text, and in the same box, have normally formatted text.
2. Building on #1 - the ability to have multiple expressions within a single textbox.


It means that a list of names can be done as
Smith, John
Jones, Allison
Longnamen, Shorty

This natural look is quite appropriate in many listings.  It could be done with string concatenation and HTML formatting but this is much more difficult than just using placeholders like
[surname], [firstname]
as we'd don in SSRS.

The least-friction way to do this in Telerik report is 

Smith,           John
Jones,           Allison
Longnamen, Shorty

where we use two separate textboxes for surname and firstname - this leads to having to gauge how big surnames could be and then have the firstname always far enough over to avoid a collision.

Is this something you might consider for Q1 2015?  I haven't thought about it too heavily but I suspect you could implement it with some work in the designer to allow entry, storage and manipulation of placeholders.  In the rendering engine you could translate this to HTML formatted string concatenation.

Thoughts? :)

greetings, 
I have seen several videos of report design, but I could not find a document or a video that explains how to make a report with parameters, but the parameters sent from a textbox on a radForm. 

thank you very much for your help.

Hi,

I am creating a standalone report that gets data from my datasource. But when I generate my report it will display the data in one column that occupy a lot of space (see attached file)

Ex:

00001
00002
00003
00004
00005

Is there a way where the data can be displayed in  a row separated by a comma? Ex: 00001,00002,00003,00004....

Thanks

Hi,

I am using your HTML5 report viewer, along with WebAPI REST service (Q2 2014).

I am getting an issue where, when linking through to a second report, it is adding "C:\" as a prefix to the report name.

E.g.
A report "Header.trdx", which links through to "Lines.trdx".  The report viewer is asking for report "C:\Lines.trdx".
Having looked at the xml behind the report, the link/action is defined as "<UriReportSource Uri="Lines.trdx">"..

Do you know why this might be happening?
Might it be something to do with how I've setup my implementation?
Is anyone else having a similar issue?

Thanks

Hello,

I use the new Q3 2014 WPF ReportViewer to display my reports, I try to use the new Export method but this._reportViewer.Export("PDF", null) throw a NullReferenceException.
I try another format but it doesn't work either.

How can I fix that problem ?

Thanks in advance.
