Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

Hello,

I have a concern about how i can relate Hierarchical business objects in StiReport.SL.

Lets say i have Two business objects, Parent Class and Child Class. Parent has list of children. How i can Create a relation between ParentId and ChildId, so each parent show just his own children.

Regards,
Jalal

Hello,

Business Objects in the report dictionary are simply references on the data. Therefore, it is not possible to change the data structure and add new relations.
Also you can see the sample video on http://www.stimulsoft.com/livedemos/Rep ... etail.html

Thank you.

I am also evaluating Stimulsoft to get away from Crystal.

In the SL version, are you saying hierarchical object structures are not permitted or only that they can't be defined ad-hoc. For instance, if I have these classes (in psuedo-code):

public class ParentClass : object
{
public string Name {get; set;}
public List Children {get; set;}
}

public class ChildClass : object
{
public string Name {get; set;}
}

Can I have a report that has a detail band for each parent and a sub-detail band for each child? If so, can you briefly explain how it is set-up (in code, the designer, etc.).

Thanks,
Scott

Hello,

Please check the "Business Objects -> Master-Detail-Subdetail" report sample from the Demo application from our standard delivery.

Thank you.

How can this be accomplished using cross tab component?

Thanks.
