I'm using MVC 3, and I use Telerik Report to call a method witch the parameter is the user id, and it should not be changed, so the user wouldn't see other user data.

public List<ViewBoleto> ListBoleto(long userid)

what I did was, in the report.cs, I let the parameter as:
 new Telerik.Reporting.ObjectDataSourceParameter("userid", typeof(long), "=Parameters.userid.Value")});

so I set the value in ViewReport.aspx, and I set as Visible = false, so nobody could edit it.

rpt.ReportParameters["userid"].Value = ViewData["UserId"];
rpt.ReportParameters["userid"].Visible = false;

It works wonders, but there is a bug, when I click in Refresh, the "Navigate Back" button turns green, and if I click on it, the Parameters will turn to Visible = true, and the user can change the values!!!

Is there a better way to I call the method ListBoleto, and pass the parameter, and block the user from changing it?

Hi Telerik team,

* RESOLVED - Looks like this was a PEBKAC error.  I recreated the report this morning and it works great.  Thanks!

It doesn't look like my report parameters are being passed through to the stored procedure in the data source.  I'm on the trial version of Q1 2012.

Using the wizard, I created a simple report in an ASP.NET Web application that pulls data from a stored procedure with a single parameter.  In the properties of the SQLDataSource I selected, "<New Report Parameter>" and created a report parameter assigned to the stored procedure parameter.  At run time I display the report using the following code,



Seems pretty straight forward, but at run time the value "42" is not passed to my stored procedure.  What am I missing?

Hello.  I set up a few Telerik reports a couple of years ago, and now I'm trying to remind myself how they work.  :-)

I am creating a new report that has a dynamic datasource here:


The report works fine when I build the project and view it through the report viewer, however, I cannot get the data to run in the Preview version of the report, and the designer does not recognize that any fields are available for the report.

I tried using a SqlDataSource stored procedure, but I have been unable to successfully pass in the date parameters when trying to run the stored procedure. 

So, my question is:  how to I get the report to recognize that data fields are available for creating the report when I have a dynamic data source?  Thanks!!

just out of curiosity do you gusy have any plans to implement a runtime designer so my users can create ad hoc reports or is that out side the scope of what Telerik Reporting is supposed to do?

We are currently trying to decide between this and Crystal as our report engine, but the main advantage Crystal has currently is they do have a report designer I can give my end users so I don't end up having to write all the reports.

Thanks!

Hi,
We wanted to find out if it is possible to allow users to dynamically group data in a Telerik Reporting Report (the users are used to the group by features from the Telerik RadGrid/RadGridView).  The users want to be able to select 1 or more columns in the report to group the data by, is this possible?  Some times they will just let the report generate without adding grouping.

I have a chart that works fine. The problem is the chart may have 7 items on the X axis or 700. If there are 7 it looks great, if there are 700 it is unreadable.

How can I print the 700 so it is readable.

The two solutions I have been looking into (I am open to other solutions) are:

1) Determine the number of elements in the result set and change the height of the report to be a multiple of the data set.
2) Duplicate the chart as many times as needed based on the results limiting each chart to 20 records.

Option 2 is probably the preferred option. I have not been able to work my way through how to do either of these.

Is there a way to do what I need to do? I don't want to filter the data, I need to show it all.

Hello,

I need to vary the color of the Bars in bar chart in silverlight telerik report.

I have attached the screen shot which provide more idea what i need.

Thanks,

Does Telerik reporting change the report size paperkind automatically based off of the users printer settings?  For example, if I design the report using letter paperkind, and a user in Europe goes to export the report to PDF, does the reporting engine know to convert it to A4 if that is what thier default printer uses?

Essentially, the problem I am facing is I designed the report based on one measurement (letter), but when Europeans export the document to PDF, its in the A4 measurement.  So the margins are wider in the A4 measurement.

Any best practices when designing reports for multiple users who use different paper sizes.  All reports are always viewed in PDF.

 

Hello,
 

We are using version Q2 2011 of telerik reporting.

I am using the Silverlight report viewer in my application and we are using our own controls outside of the viewer to feed in report parameters. This has worked well so far and the BeginRender event is working fine.

However we now have a requirement for a report that drills through to another report and I need to update our criteria selectors to reflect the new parameter values that are used. When the drill through report starts to load the BeginRender event fires on the client so I know that they have drilled through, but the args that are passed do not contain the parameters that were used.

If there any way to get the parameter values? Will this be addressed in a future release?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Travis
