Subreport binding to parent report objectdatasource. Seeing the sub report, but there's no data in it

[Ashith Rai]

Hi,

 

I have a main report and 3 sub reports. I referred to the telerik documentation and the forum. I have a objectdatasource in the main report and the sub report relies on the parent datasource --> =MainReport.objectDataSource1. I have also set field value to =MainReport.objectDataSource1.FieldName in the subreport.

The report loads successfully but there is no data. It's very frustrating and I have a spent of lot of time trying to resolve the issue.

I will appreciate it, if you can please assist me with this. 

 

Thanks,

Ashith.

Hi Ashith,

I suspect that the sub report cannot find the assigned data source, hence the report gets rendered empty.
The correct way to use data from the main report in the sub report is demonstrated in How to bind Sub Report to Main Report's Data KB article.
