I am building an Epicor Configurator and I need to retrieve the Display Value of a Combo Box to a set it a a Part Description. I am able to get the value fine but I want to be able to fetch the display value as well. Your help is needed.
P.S. my combo box fetches its data from a BAQ.
When I want the value in a text field, I've used
FieldName:SCREEN-VALUE
to get it's value.

I will start of by saying that I'm new to Grafana.
I have a database table that is being updated externally that has say 15 columns of information on a given set of servers. I'm just trying to display the server name and current status and change the color of the row based on that status (Norm, Alert, Down) ... ideally those would be links to a detail page.
I tried the included table display which looks like it should handle it but the coloring options don't seem to work based on plain dumb text in a column or it would be perfect because it says it will color by row and includes the ability to make each row a link essentially.

I have tried with and without quotes in the Threshold values. It says in the hover help you can use comma separated values but does not seem to work for me. (I am thinking it's my config or usage btw)
Every other plugin I can find that says it wants to do this errors out when I tell it I have a table of data and not some live feed.
I am trying to add to my current calculated field.
It is a fairly simple LEFT(UPPER([STR]),2) that I am currently using. This populates a filter list. However, I want to either modify the formula or the list itself to only include [STR] items where underlying data is and for any that do not have data, they are left off the list until they have data to be selecting.
think of the STR as if it were states abbreviations. IF COUNT([Things]) = 0 then I don't want the state on my filter list, but if there is or if there later gets some Things added in that state I want it to show up.
I tried using IF COUNT([Things]) > 0 THEN LEFT(UPPER([STR]),2) END but that doesn't seem to work. I am also open to just using a condition for showing the filter if that can work, but I am not sure how to set that up.
Strangely I had tried this solution before. I choose Show only relevant values on the filter in the filters box, that made it show nothing at all. However, if you click the drop down arrow on the Show filter card and choose show only relevant values that works.
In ireport when clicking on preview, and you have parameters, you'll get a parameter box where you put a certain value to get specific record(s).Now i am trying to put specific values in the parameter box, so that the user would choose between it.
The same goal as in this so question : Loading promt box with parameters in iReport
However i want to do it without using Jasper Server. Is it possible to achieve this only from within IReport Designer?
You can do this,right click on the input control and select to add the local input control and provide id and name for the input control
Under the input control details select single select list of values if you have the list of values with you or if you want to add the data of a column as drill down select single select select query and extract that field.
This will help you to drill down the data.
Thanks and Regards

I'm pretty sure you can not do this in iReport preview. Have no clue what #Megha is refereeing to....
You can provide default value for your parameter through the <defaultValueExpression> tag and decide if you wan't it to prompt or not to prompt with the isForPrompting attribute.
Why can't we have select list, well I guess iReport is a tool for developers, so the preview is only to test the report. For customers jasper soft have developed the jasper report server.
And remember you can always develop your own interface (in swing or on the web)
I am trying to display a list of open indents with check boxes before them each line. Based on the selection a report will be generated next with further details.
Table: xxind_mstr (xxind_nbr, xxind_shipto, xxind_askedby, xxind_date).
Is there any way that I can bring the records from xxind_mstr and place them in the FORM with check boxes ?
Note: This only works if dynamic. Never hardcode this approach.
Name each check box with the value of ROWID(xxind_mstr).
This way on the post you can read back through the each xxind_mstr getting the value of the the rowid.

I'd like some more info, just to know if I'm not talking rubbish here. You want to display the records in xxind_mstr as checkboxes, then upon selection of the report setup, fire the report respecting the checkboxes flagged? If so, then I'd use a browse pre-built with a temp-table containing the xxind_mstr records, and a "flagged" field, this being a logical view-as checkbox, and when they run the report, do a
FOR EACH ttxxind_mstr WHERE flagged = true, and you should have what you want.
I have a crystal report, which takes data from an XML template. For a particular field of report, say 'Cost' the database stored procedure send data to XSD file in decimal format , but when the crystal report displays data picking from XSD, it is rounded off.
When i right click on other data fields of report, I can see 'Field:table1.columnname',. But when i click on 'Cost' field, it shows 'Text:'.
To my understanding, this is a text field which is mapped to pick data from XSD and since the type is text, it gives result in text hence truncating the decimal.
Please suggest how can I get decimals here.
P.S: This code was created by someone else, so i have no idea on what they had set at that time. I have to fix it and i have no clue about it.
(This sounds like one of those problems which is probably fixable in 20 seconds if I stood over your shoulder. Or not. Since that's not possible, let's do some background first:)
When you right-click on a field and see Text:, that means it's just a Text Object which may or may not display data from the database (if you just roll your mouse over it, it should say Text Object). When you want a report to say something generic like "Hello, my name is", this is how you'd do it. But you can also drag & drop data fields into it as well.
The other data fields that say 'Field:table1.columnname' when you right-click are indeed pulled (almost) directly from the database
Try this:
Go into your Field Explorer (If it's not open already, from the menu bar, choose View->Field Explorer). Check the Field Type of your field of interest. If it's a number field, then that's how it's being pulled from the database, which is good.
Try deleting the original field in the report and drag&dropping your field directly from the field explorer. Preview the report. Right click to Format Field. There, you'll see display options to add/remove decimals, insert currency symbols, etc.
That's enough for now. Let us know how it goes.
