General Reporting Questions

1. Shared Report Headers - Is it possible to design a report header that can be used by all reports within an application. At the moment i am having to copy and paste the report header onto each report i make.

2. Formatting Data - Is it possilbe, to format labels so that they always show data to the same number of decimal places. For ecample i have a dataset with a field Amount, how can i have a Summary of the Amount fields showing the result to 2 decimal places. I have seen the string Format in the expression assistant, but have not been able to combine it with a Sum function.

3.Printer Orientation - No matter which orientation you set when designing a report, when printing you always have to manually change the printer settings so that the paper orientation matches the report being viewed. Is this something that will be addressed in a future release, if so is there an eta on when it will be fixed. Are there any work arounds for this problem?

    Hi Edward,

    1. Currently we don’t provide a way for doing that.
    2. In the CTP the way you have to do what you want is through the Format, e.g. you could write an expression like the following =Format("{0:0.00}", Sum(Fields.Price)). For V1 you will be able to associate a format directly to the label.
    3. That is a known bug we have. It will be fixed for V1.

    Thanks,

    Leo
