PROBLEM How to Create a Dynamic Table/Crosstab/List item. DESCRIPTION In different scenarios data may not have exact schema to be used for designing a report. In such cases you can use the fact that the Table/List/Crosstab item can visualize 3D data.
The idea is to create a data source describing the data in terms of columns, rows and content, which should result in a flatten tabular representation of data like:
columnName,rowIndex,cellContent
column1,1,11
column2,1,21
column3,1,31
column1,2,12
column2,2,22
column3,2,32
Then you can add a Table/List/Crosstab item with dynamic row and column groups based on the columnName and rowIndex fields. The attached demo report illustrates the settings. The report can be previewed in the Standalone Report Designer of Telerik Reporting R1 2017 and newer.
