How to pass an integer parameter from main report to subreport?

I don't understand why this isn't working, but I have a main report with parameters:
StartDate=datetime,
EndDate=datetime,
Program=text,
ChartType=text.
In this RDL, I have a chart with Action configured on this bar chart series.  The Action expression is:
="javascript:void(window.open('http://evolvssrs/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fIncoming%2fCensus+Report+Modifier&rs:Command=Render&rc:Parameters=true&StartDate=" & Parameters!StartDate.Value & "&EndDate=" & Parameters!EndDate.Value & "&Program=" & Fields!program_info.Value & "&ChartType=" & Fields!ChartType.Value & "','_blank'))"
(program_info is a FIELD uniqueidentifier value matching the value of the Program parameter).
So for this subreport, I have tried ChartType parameter as both integer and text, but each time i click on a bar from the main report, it opens a new window with ChartType field empty.  But the other 3 parameters: Start Date, End Date, and Program are
all populated.  Why is it doing this and how can I fix please?

Hi Ryan,
If I understand correctly, you have got empty in the ChartType parameter text box when you enable go to URL action.
In my test, if the value we pass to the subreport which is not include in the parameter available values, we would get the empty text box. Please check if it has the specific ChartType values in the subreport parameter available values.
Alternatively, please check if it has pass value to the subreport. We can add a parameter without available values and default values to check if it is can accept the Field ChartType Value from the main report.
Hope this helps.

  • How to use the region parameter of main report for subreport chart titles?

    I am using Crystal Reports 11.
    I create 1 main report with 10 sub-reports that contain cross-tabs & charts. The main report has a parameter regarding 3 different areas: region1, region2, and region3.
    I use the method of adding the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to the selection formula of the sub-reports. So, I can select 'region' from main report to controll outputs in sub-reports by region.
    I use formulas for chart titles, e.g.:
    Select {Product Code}
    Case 'a111':
      u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
    Case u2018b222u2019:
      u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
    u2026
    u2026
    Default:
    u2026
    Since I pass the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to sub-reports, I have to change chart titles dynamically based on the region I select.
    How can I use the region parameter from main report in the formulas to get chart titles dynamically?
    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you.
    I am not using Chart Title with "Chart Expert".
    I am using a formula for chart titles, e.g.:
    Select {Product Code}
    Case 'a111':
      u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
    Case u2018b222u2019:
      u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
    u2026
    u2026
    Default:
    u2026
    I drag this formula above the charts and it looks like a dynamic title. So, for product a111, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; for product b222, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 b222" Counts; and so on ...
    Because I pass the region parameter from master report to subreport, I want to change the region part of the chart titles dynamically.
    For example,
    when select Region1, the chart titles should be: "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region1 u2013 b222"; ...
    when select Region2, the chart titles should be: "Region2 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region2 u2013 b222"; ...
    I want to add the region parameter into the tiltle formula.
    How should I do?

  • How to pass Presentation Variable Value from Main Report to Detail Report

    Hello,
    I've 2 reports that is attached to each other. In my main report i've several report prompts and i am using i"s prompted" on my detail report to attach them.
    But 2 of my report prompts are presentation variables(Names : FIRST, SECOND). Both are in date format. I've a filter in my main report like;
    "ASSIGNMENTS_F"."EFFECTIVE_START_DATE" BETWEEN @{FIRST} AND {SECOND}
    It works fine when i run the main report. But when i click on the numbers, i see that i can not filter my detail report with the chosen values for 2 presentation variables. It just shows all the dates.
    I've tried adding both presentation variables in both reports as columns and adding 'is prompted' filter to them. But did not work either.
    I just cant pass the written values for presentation variable prompts to detail report..
    Please help :)

    Hi,
    What you can try is refer the filte condition in the main report to the detailed report with the option--> Filter based on another request.
    Or you try creating another intermediate report which will refer the main report filters and pass the filters to the detailed report.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to pass in a parameter into a report viewer on a jsp - and hidden

    Hi, I've built a php application and am using the java environment to enable the crystal report/viewer.  The developer was looking how to pass in a parameter into a report viewer on a jsp. Ultimately the end product we need is to get an HTML report viewer loading a report file with hidden parameters so to not expose other customer data (it's a shared database for multiple customers) preferably loaded from php using maybe the php java bridge. Would anyone happen to have any sample code or any guidance?
    <%@ page contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
       pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>
    <%@ taglib uri="/crystal-tags-reportviewer.tld" prefix="crviewer"%>
    <%
    // just a test to grab rpt name from GET
    String rptFile = "report_files/" + request.getParameter("rpt");
    %>
    <crviewer:viewer reportSourceType="reportingComponent" viewerName=""
    isOwnPage="true">
       <crviewer:report reportName="<%= rptFile %>" />
    </crviewer:viewer>
    Many thanks in advance!
    Mark

    I am not aware of any html tags you can pass to the viewer for parameter values.  Normally, you would load the report in code and then use the SDK with the report object to pass parameter values.

  • Pass parameter from main report to sub report?

    Post Author: nomore
    CA Forum: General
    I have a report which is comparing turnover from present year to previous year.Im trying to make it dynamic - so i have added a parameter to the main report to allow user to enter a year, however I cannot work out how to pass this to the sub report so select records based on this. I have passed the data thruogh a fomula ok (WhilePrintingRecords; Shared NumberVar shYear;)  and that is working spot on.Now i just need to enter that number as a record select paremeter. Also if I try to perform a summary on this field (it never changes, but its just a test) - the 'Insert Summary' option is unavailable, and it doesnt show up as a formula in formula editor.

    I have CR XI, you want to edit your subreport links, right click the sub, select Change subreport links, you should be able to select your field, and see your parameter listed.  Once you set up the link the sub will run based on whatever link you picked.

  • Passing Parameter from Main report to SQL command-based subreport

    I am trying to cut down the run time of my reports and have recently figured out how to write SQL commands to limit the data by filtering prior to being pulled into the reports.  However, many of my reports rely on multiple sub reports, which can cause a dramatic 'drag' on the report.
    I am trying to filter the SQL command used in my sub report by passing the group parameter, which is selected by the user in the main report, to the sub report's SQL command.  Without this parameter, the sub report has to sort through a lot more data than it would with this parameter, making the run time extremely slow.
    Any suggestions on how I can accomplish this?
    Thanks for any help you can provide,

    Hi Marlene,
    I don't believe you can pass a CR parameter to a Command object.
    I suggest replacing all of the Command Objects with a Stored Procedure so all of the data filtering is done server side. DB servers are much more proficient at collecting the data and filtering than CR will ever be. It will also allow you to replace subreports to also speed up your report processing. All depends on your layout of course but something to look at.
    Thank you

  • How to pass a date parameter from report builder query designer to oracle database

    i'm using report builder 3.0 connected to oracle database. i'm trying to pass a date parameter in the query with no success, i don't
    know the exact syntax. I've tried :
    SELECT * FROM igeneral.GCL_CLAIMS where CREATED_BY IN (:CREATED_BY) AND CLAIM_YEAR IN(:UW_YEAR) AND (LOSS_DATE) >To_Date('01/01/2014','mm/dd/yyyy')
    it worked perfectly.
    However if i try to put a date parameter "From" instead of 01/01/2014 it will not work, a Define Query Parameter popup window appear and error occurred after i fill
    the values (usually i shouldnt get this popup i should enter the value when i run the report)
    SELECT * FROM igeneral.GCL_CLAIMS where CREATED_BY IN (:CREATED_BY) AND CLAIM_YEAR IN(:UW_YEAR) AND (LOSS_DATE) >To_Date(:From,'mm/dd/yyyy')
    appreciate your assistance

    Hi Gorgo,
    According to your description, you have problem when in passing a parameter for running a Oracle Query. Right?
    Based on my knowledge, it use "&" as synax for parameter in Oracle, like we use "@" in SQL Server. In this scenario, maybe you can try '01/01/2014' when inputing in "From". We are not sure if there's any limitation for To_Date()
    function. For your self-testing, you can try the query in sqlplus/sql delveloper. Since your issue is related to Oracle query, we suggest you post this thread onto Oracle forum.

  • How to pass the primary key from a report to multiple forms

    I am trying to build an application that tracks a person's training records. I have a report and 3 forms (all tabbed). From the report I can click the edit link to modify a person. Is there a way I can pass the primary key of the person (from the report) to the other forms? Hope what I'm trying to do is clear.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You can specify items from other pages also.
    Did you use that popup to pick item ?
    Did you noticed that it filter by page where your link point. You can remove filter from popup and then select other items.
    Or just manually type your item names

  • Passing Parameters to anf from Sub-Reports

    I have a report with two subreports in it, and I want to be able to tell the main report about the data in the sub-report so I can supress a detail section if the sub-report contains certain data.  How do I pass a parameter from the sub-report to the main report?

    Passing a variable from subreport to main report and vice versa
    Declare a variable as shared in the subreport.
    Shared numberVar NoOfrecords;
    Assign some value to this variable,
    Shared numberVar NoOfrecords :=Count()
    Then in the main report, create a formula and in that formula again declare the vairable and use it as u like
    //Declaration
    Shared numberVar NoOfrecords;
    //If you want to supress a section based on this count,then
    if NoOfrecords = 0 then TRUE
    click ok..
    NOTE:
    For the shared variable to return the correct value in the main report, you must place @MainFormula in a main report section that is beneath the section containing the subreport. This ensures Crystal Reports evaluates the @SubFormula before @MainFormula.
    Very Important : Dont just create the formula, u have to place this forula somewhere as mentioned above. If u dont want to show this formula value,then hide it by changing its colour to white or by some other way. If u dont place the formula in the report,it wont work.
    and same thing applies when passing values from main report to subreport.
    In this case define the @MainFormula first and then @SubFormula.
    I have used this successfully in my report.

    Hi
    Crystal Report version : 11.0.0.1282 Standard
    There is MainReport1. Other is Subreport1
    Scenario : 
    MainReport1 having paramater PdateMain1 as dateTime.
    SubReport1 having parameter dateSub1 ,dateSub2.
    datesub1 is used for One datasource1 (DataSource- XML -from webApplication)  , dateSub2 is used for datasource2 (DataSource-SQl Procedure ) ( This is requirement as i need to used two datasource )
    Value of datesub1 and datesub1 is same (it is created automatical as it is part of SQLProcedure and XML Query ) but get prompted twice for the same valuewhich  is not desirable. so for that i have created main report and calling this subreport in main report.
    Now i want's to pass PdataMain1 to Parameter datesub1  and datesub2. I am able to pass  PdataMain1 to datesub1.  through Change Sub report link ( Option on right click of report).and it is working fine,
    Problem : 
    But Subreport link Menu does not allow to bind PdateMain1 to datesub2 as it is allready bind with datasub2.
    to overcome this i created one Formula field in main report as fMaindate1 which copy date from Parameter PdateMain1.and bind ( link) the  fMaindate1 to datesub2.  when i link this , subreport does not display any thing at all. It it a limitation of crystal report or i am missing some thing , Is it like that we can pass formula of ,main report to subreport Paramater in Crystal 11 Standard , if we can anyone please Provide help on this.
    This can be easily achieve through application programming but my need to get this done in Report itself.Thanks

  • Passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard to BIP report

    It is possibile passing multi-value parameter from BIEE dashboard prompt to BI Publisher integrated report? (BIP report has a DB data source (not a answers))
    Thank you
    R.

    Hi Rajkm,
    In order to pass a multi-value parameter through the Reporting Services Web services, you need to define the same numbers of ParameterValue objects as the number of the values of the multi-value parameter being past into the report. The Name property
    of these ParameterValue objects must be specified same to the parameter name.
    I found a good FAQ article for this scenario:
    How do I pass a multi-value parameter into a report with Reporting Services Web service API?:

    Hope this helps.

  • Passing values from main report to sub-reports

    - How do we pass values from main report to sub-report?

    Look at this link which shows how to pass values from a subreport to a main report.
    http://www.datamanagementgroup.com/resources/trainerstalk/trainerstalk_howto_share_subreport_data_with_main_report.asp
    You can use the same method to pass values from main report to a subreport.
    1) Create a formula @mainFormula in the main report, as given in item 1 of link.
    2) Place this formulla in a suppressed report footer section above the target subreport.
    3) In the subreport, create a formula @subFormula that declares the same variable name, as given in item 3 of link.
    4) Place @subFormula column in the subreport where you want to display it.
