How to list multiple rows within Table component specific column? - jasper-reports

I have Table and I want to display multiple row in same band like the below image
I have tried with by Adding frame inside the table column and using list component to list multiple rows but it wont works.
like the following hierarchy
Table-->Detail band-->Column-->Frame-->list component-->TextField
Can any one help me How to Solve this ? thanks in advance

There are two ways of doing it.
Way 1:
Put a sub report into last column. Pass the data to it. This way there would be multiple fields in it.
Way 2:
Use groups and custom styles along with groups(styles and groups will have to manages logically).
I think you should go for way 1 if the data in your last column does not span more than one page. Otherwise way 2 is applicable.

ag-grid prevent expanding grouped data

I am using ag grid enterprise with grouping.
Is it possible to group data but based on first column but prevent expanding the row? I just want to display the sums.
I am using this data : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ag-grid/ag-grid/master/grid-packages/ag-grid-docs/src/sample-data/rowData.json
Please check the code here: https://codesandbox.io/s/nice-varahamihira-1r8bf?file=/src/App.js
As you can see in the image, I just want to display the total sum of prices of Toyota, Ford etc, but I do not want the users to expand them.
If you do not need the children, why you need a tree view for it?
You should do this logic in component and only pass the sums data to the grid.

How to Keep First Row and Second Row of Ms. Word Table in one page in BI Publisher Report?

My institution is using BI Publisher (Ms.Word add on) with Peoplesoft.
Now, I'm doing a report that will print a name and it's description in table format repeatedly. In some cases, the first and second row of the table will be separated in different page. I already tried to check the "Keep Lines Together" and deselect "allow row to break across pages" setting, but only worked with static table, not with table contains BI Publisher fields.
This is the screen shot (look at the red arrow).
First and second row of table are separated in different page
Anyone able to solve this issue? Thanks.
it was done..just create 1x1 table and set it to not allow break across pages. Then, put the the main table into that 1x1 table. Place the repeating tags outside the 1x1 table.
I solve this problem by this way.
Insert any filed into the bottom of the table,then change the filed property as
<?split-by-page-break:?>

Display Records Horizontally Instead of Vertical in Cells, SSRS

I'm trying to display multiple values for one drive by adding a column for each additional record assigned to a drive. For example, a drive ID is unique but can have multiple promotional incentives assigned to it.
For example, if we go to a university on 1/23/2015, that will a unique event or record in the DriveMaster table, but if we are giving away T-Shirts and Pizza, those two records will be assigned to the drive in the EquipmentDetail table.
In SSRS, I'm trying to create a sub-report that will display the promotional items on one line instead of adding additional lines for each promotional item. See screenshot below.
What I'd like to have happen is have the each drive only account for 1 row, and each promotional item listed in a new column to the right. See mockup in Excel.
Is there a way to handle this? I know there is in Crytal Reports, but I can't figure this out in SSRS. I've tried using a Matrix, but I can't see to get the columns to grow if there are multiple incentives.
I added a column group on the Description field, and it looks like that it is close, but that the grouping will create blank spaces (cells) in it.
Thanks,
You have to set a Column Group for your promotional item in your Matrix.
Hope that helps.
Edit:
It looks like there are some areas that contain no data (because of your groupings)
We can do something like the following:
In your query you can use the 'over'
Select DriveID, PromotionItem, ... ,
ROW_NUMBER() Over(Partition by Select DriveID, PromotionItem, ... Order by PromotionItem)
AS ColumnGroupNumber
Then in the Promotion Item group that you have change the field it groups on to the ColumnGroupNumber (or whatever you are going to call it). Just don't change the field in the detail row, or you will not see the details.
I have used this solution before. I found it here.

Jasper Report group subreports using columns

I have a master report (using iReport 5.0.4) with a subreport that uses grouping by a field called "Group Number" (sorry, but that is the actual column name).
My report works fine when there are more than one group, but it generates each group result scrolling down the page vertically.
I would like to be able to have each group go across vertically, but when I tried using columns, it simply forces each group's data into columns, and not the entire group 1, followed by group 2 in the next column, etc.
There can be up to 8 groups, so I was hoping not to have to create 8 individual sub-subreports with a "print when" expression to show/hide them.
Can anyone tell me if this should be possible?
Thanks,
Mitch
I think making subreports is the easiest and obvious way. But if you want to make it in other way, I can only suggest to use scriptlet, and form dataset manually (Transpose it).
Another suggestion is when you generating report directly from database (i.e. passing connection into jasper) you can modify query and transpose the data (PIVOT table).
Anyway provide more info about your case. I will try to help you.

Is it possible to create a row that spans all columns of a Matrix in SSRS 2008?

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.
[Original Response]
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.
