I use ag-grid enterprise edition and I would to add total columns in pivot mode. It is very clear in document how to do so but not in server-side rendering. The idea is that the back-end calculate the total of values for each row and I want to show it in the grid.
I tried a workaround using custom row groups and adding new columns to columnDef to describe the total columns, but it's not showing in the grid, because the total is not a row group. I can't find in the API a method to add a column that is not a Value column or a Pivot column in the ag-grid in pivot mode.
I want to know is someone find a way to do it in this context.
Nevermind, I find how to do it. You just have to push the columns you want as total using gridColumnApi.setSecondaryColumns. It's important to be aware of the colId and field to match the key of your row data corresponding.
I just have a bunch of dimensions in rows, so its just a table of information and I need to hide a column of data because its confidential, but I need the data there because it affects the layout of the rest of the table.
Right click on the field that you want to hide on the rows or columns shelf, and turn off show header
I'm working on a table in iReport designer where I pull in info from a database. As of right now, I have it so that one row of the table corresponds to one row in the database.
How can I make it so that one entry in the database can take up two rows. The first row would have 4 columns corresponding to a field in the database. The second row would have 1 column the same length as the 4 above columns combined and also correspond to one field. When editing an iReport designer table, there doesn't seem to be an option to add more rows, only columns.
I found a much easier workaround. I created a one column table, then dragged and dropped static text and fields in certain spots to make the report look like it had multiple columns.
I'm writing a report with itextsharp with tables organized horizontally in groups of four, but all tables appears one beneath the other vertically. How can I write each table NEXT to the other?
There's two ways that you can accomplish this. The first is to create a 4 column outer table and add your tables to the cells within that table. The second way is to just fix the width of each table and use the PdfPTable instance method WriteSelectedRows() to write your tables at exact x,y coordinates. See my post here for how to do the latter.
Is it possible to have add a row to an SSRS 2008 Matrix that spans all of the matrix's columns?
This crude diagram shows roughly what I'm looking for:
The basic idea is that each line item is a person, and each column is a field in a form for that person. The fields themselves are dynamic (and implemented as column groups on the matrix). Additional column groups are included to append non-dynamic form fields, like the time the record was entered and who entered it. Under each person's record is a comments field, which should span all of the form fields above it.
At the moment I have the matrix embedded in another tablix, with the name and fields in the matrix and the comments in the parent tablix. This works for the data (each instance of the matrix ends up being one row), but the header repeats too often (once per person) because it's attached to the matrix. The only thought I have as to how to fix this is to create another matrix in the parent tablix with the same grouping and use it to display the headers... But this will require quite a lot of manual synchronization to keep the two matrices the same.
Edit: The key problem here is making the second row span multiple column groups.
Here's what you can do:
Select the column grouping you want to add above and right click and select
Add Group... Parent Group...
Group the column by something that will not aggregate the data. You'll have to select a field from your dataset to group by so that it creates an overlapping column grouping.
Check the Add group header box
You should now see something similar to this:
Now you just need to move the Value1 field and it's header over under the new column to the right beyond the matrix dividers. Once that's done, simply delete the ungrouped column where you just copied Value1 from and be sure to select Delete columns only checkbox.
Your finished product should look like this:
It is possible - And the above answers are partial answers leaving out one key step: Merging the cells of the child row.
First, right click on your grouped row, then select Insert Row -> Inside Group - Below and you will get two rows with the cells aligning on the columns
Second, ctrl click all the cells in your new row (ie row without the data) then right click on one of the highlighted cells, and then select Merge Cells.
Now you have the table you like. To add a value to the new row: first right click your new (multi column) cell,select Create Placeholder, and then add the dataset item you desire to the placeholder.
[Edit]
After several attempts, I'm going to say this isn't possible in SSRS. The best I could come up with is a group footer that spans columns 1,2, and 3, but not the User column.

I recently did something similar to this.
First, what tool are you using to create SSRS reports? (I used SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio)
You'll want to create a row group (grouped on Person)
Append a row to your table in "Design" view (Right click, "Insert Row --> Inside Group - Below").
Add an expression to the row that pulls the value for your "Comment" column (=Fields!Comment.Value).
Let me know if that helps...
Try adding in you column group "header" with a grouping expression of (1=1). Then a detail field will need to be defined. If you define the other group with correct data then the "header" will stretch across all details columns. You may need to merger depending on other options.
The easiest way to do this is to create a Tablix with only one column, and your row grouping.
Then, you create two rows inside this group.
In the first row inside the group, you insert a Matrix, wich you can then subgroup as you prefer.
I just had a similar problem, and this was my solution.
I banged my head against the wall for a lot of time, until i realized the solution to my problem wasn't "making a cell span multiple column groups", but "making a cell split into multiple column groups".
You can accomplish the goal by using a subreport for each person. The subreport will receive the employee id and create the hierarchy for you. Make sure your subreport column widths match the widths of the parent report.
