Pass data from Main report to Subreport

I have client name in Main Report. I need to display the same name into Subreport. How can I pass the value from MainReport to SubReport.

Hi Mahendra,
Drag the subreport control from toolbox,
Go to the subreport properties by right click on the subreport.
In General property add the child report.
In parameter property , add parameter,in Name dropdown will show the parameters already created in the child report.
In Value column which is fron of Name, you can give values which are avilable in Main report.
You can see below screen for better understanding.
Thanks

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.

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.

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

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.

How to pass data from main vi/exe (sender) to many vi/exe (receivers) with one receiver code/vi?

Hello all
I am tring to dev some data distribution system, where one vi gets data from hw to shared variable. Vi compiled to app "sender.exe" The others units (receivers) should receive that data from shared var and write it to different serial ports (configured by user in runtime via control). Number of actually working ports may vary.
Should (and can?) this "receivers" vi's be the one vi, compiled to app "receiver.exe" and executed many times with different settings (diff serial port number)? // I tried this, second+ execution of receiver.exe just makes existing window active instead of creating new process as it works with other languages.
Or should i build many different vi (receiver1, receiver2, ... with actually the same content) into different .exe to run them at the same time?
Or may be the best way to build multi-port receiver with ability to communicate with any number of serial ports? // i dont like this, no code reusage here ))
The question is complicated with possibility to work via network (one of the reasons to make different exe for receivers) and may be the shared vi namespace may not allow many receiver-side vi's to have the same name?
In short, it should work as SENDER.exe >> RECEIVER1.exe, 2, 3... i.e. "one to many".
Asking for a best solution advice.
Please help)

Correct Way to Pass Data from Main VI to Sub VI

I'm currently working on a program that consists of a main VI which passes in several inputs to numerous copies of the same subVI which are displayed in subpanels. As you may know, in order to display a subVI in a subpanel, a reference to the subVI must be passed into the "Insert VI" property node of the subpanel. However, I am unsure as to what is the proper way in which I can generate this reference from the subVI block on the block diagram of the main VI. Note that in my case, it is insufficient to simply generate a reference to the subVI by pointing to the file path of the subVI and opening an instance of it, because that instance of the subVI must also receive input from the main VI. Generating a reference in this way does not, as far as I know, allow the main VI to interface with the subVI.
I had thought that I developed a solution to this problem by extracting a reference to the current instance of the subVI from the "Owning VI" property node of any control or display in the subVI. This works well for about 12 hours of program execution. However, after that point, the program starts highlighting the "Insert VI" property node every time the subVI is updated. Furthermore, the main VI seems to often lose the reference to the subVI and becomes unable to start, especially after the subVI has been edited. Given these two problems, this solution clearly is not a proper solution.
Could anybody advise on how to properly generate a reference to an instance of a subVI that receives input from a main VI?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Griffon2-6 wrote:
I've figured that out too - set the "Option" input on the "Open VI Reference" block to 0x8.
Great!
Thats the way to go. Keep digging around and you will find solutions in the LabVIEW Help or on the forums for most of the things.
When you set the open VI reference option to 0x08, you can obtain reference to different instances of the same VI, so that you can pass different data and let them run separately.
Griffon2-6 wrote:
However, now I've discovered that the inputs from the main VI are not being passed to the subVI instances as the program is running. Does passing control values via invoke nodes allow for real-time data transfer?
I have one question. You said you are calling this sub VI in a sub panel? How many subpanels do you have and why are you calling the reentrant vi in differnet sub panels?
Could you post your code?

Pass data from z report to smartforms

Hi expert,
i have a zreport for display internal order. in this zreport, i create a table(ATAB) contain data of internal order header from coas t003p and other table.
now i want to pass this ATAB to smartforms. i got example smartforms and zreport with similar to mine's case but no instruction or advice from my boss. so, i try to read many previous thread about this for advise. but still confuse with many thing.
anyone can explain to me.
    what is function of each tab in "form interface" , "global definition" .
    what is "types" tab in global definition (in example zreport i receive also has declare type to what is relation of this ).
    what i must create and declare in form interface , global definition.
    what is difference and meaning of "type" , "type table of" , "like" in Type assignment
Regards.
Kittisak.

Hi,
In global defination 'types' tab is used to define all structures that u want to use in your smartform.
in 'initialization declare' all internal tables , work area , select queries and constants which u are using.
in 'global data define' the data which u want to use throughout the smartform.
if u are using ny field symbol then declare it in 'field symbols' tab.
in 'form routine' all forms are used that u declared in initialization.
all currency and quantity related field names come into tab 'currency/quant. fields'.
form interface is basically used when u are using a driver program associated to ur smartform.
for seeing difference b/w type, type table of and like use F1 help.
hope this will help.
regards
saurabh

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 data from one internal session to another

Memory Structures of an ABAP Program
In the Overview of the R/3 Basis System you have seen that each user can open up to six R/3 windows in a single SAPgui session. Each of these windows corresponds to a session on the application server with its own area of shared memory.
The first application program that you start in a session opens an internal session within the main session. The internal session has a memory area that contains the ABAP program and its associated data. When the program calls external routines (methods, subroutines or function modules) their main program and working data are also loaded into the memory area of the internal session.
Only one internal session is ever active. If the active application program calls a further application program, the system opens another internal session. Here, there are two possible cases: If the second program does not return control to the calling program when it has finished running, the called program replaces the calling program in the internal session. The contents of the memory of the calling program are deleted. If the second program does return control to the calling program when it has finished running, the session of the called program is not deleted. Instead, it becomes inactive, and its memory contents are placed on a stack.
The memory area of each session contains an area called ABAP memory. ABAP memory is available to all internal sessions. ABAP programs can use the EXPORT and IMPORT statements to access it. Data within this area remains intact during a whole sequence of program calls. To pass data to a program which you are calling, the data needs to be placed in ABAP memory before the call is made. The internal session of the called program then replaces that of the calling program. The program called can then read from the ABAP memory. If control is then returned to the program which made the initial call, the same process operates in reverse.
All ABAP programs can also access the SAP memory. This is a memory area to which all sessions within a SAPgui have access. You can use SAP memory either to pass data from one program to another within a session, or to pass data from one session to another. Application programs that use SAP memory must do so using SPA/GPA parameters (also known as SET/GET parameters). These parameters are often used to preassign values to input fields. You can set them individually for users, or globally according to the flow of an application program. SAP memory is the only connection between the different sessions within a SAPgui.
The following diagram shows how an application program accesses the different areas within shared memory:
In the diagram, an ABAP program is active in the second internal session of the first main session. It can access the memory of its own internal session, ABAP memory and SAP memory. The program in the first internal session has called the program which is currently active, and its own data is currently inactive on the stack. If the program currently active calls another program but will itself carry on once that program has finished running, the new program will be activated in a third internal session.
Data Clusters in ABAP Memory
You can store data clusters in ABAP memory. ABAP memory is a memory area within the internal session (roll area) of an ABAP program and any other program called from it using CALL TRANSACTION or SUBMIT.
ABAP memory is independent of the ABAP program or program module from which it was generated. In other words, an object saved in ABAP memory can be read from any other ABAP program in the same call chain. ABAP memory is not the same as the cross-transaction global SAP memory. For further information, refer to Passing Data Between Programs.
This allows you to pass data from one module to another over several levels of the program hierarchy. For example, you can pass data
From an executable program (report) to another executable program called using SUBMIT.
From a transaction to an executable program (report).
Between dialog modules.
From a program to a function module.
and so on.
The contents of the memory are released when you leave the transaction.
To save data objects in ABAP memory, use the statement EXPORT TO MEMORY.
Saving Data Objects in Memory
To read data objects from memory, use the statement IMPORT FROM MEMORY.
Reading Data Objects from Memory
To delete data clusters from memory, use the statement FREE MEMORY.
Deleting Data Clusters from Memory

Passing Value from Crystal Report (special function) to Business View parameter

Friends,
Í have a scenario where i need to pass value from Crystal Report to a Business view's parameter.
Eg : CurrentCEUsername (func in crystal report)-- gives login user which i should pass to parameter in a Business view (used in the same report).
Will be able to explain more if required.
Thanks in Advance,

I guess you got the picture wrong. User_id is not a report_level parameter .
In Data Foundation, below query is used..
select Acc_Number, Account_Group,User_id from Accounts where user_id={?User_id}
where in {?User_id} is the BV parameter...
The Filter was a solution. But it takes long time to Query all the data from DB and then filter at BV level.
How do i pass the CurrentCEUsername to {?User_id}
Value should ve CurrentCEusername always. so that query will be
select Acc_Number, Account_Group,User_id from Accounts where user_id=CurrentCEusername
It will restrict the data pulled from DB to BV .. right?

Passing data from a panel to a frame / disposing of a frame from in a panel

Hello, I have recently created a program where all windows are made of seperate frames, now, to make the whole thing a bit more appealing and professional looking, i'd like to make 1 main frame, and load my content panels into this 1 frame. Problem i'm having with this is passing data from the loaded in panel to the main frame, so the main frame can hide one panel to load another with data inserted in the first panel. OR another solution to my problem would be a way to dispose of a frame, but from within the seperate panel class. I have searched the www for a solution, but haven't found one so far, so, any suggestions or references to some info about this kind of issue? Any pointer is greatly appreciated

EDIT: I took a look at the cardlayout, and, although i see its relevance to my question, it still leaves me with the question how exactly i will pass data the user inputs into the first panel, to the second panel. The second panel is built by the info which is provided in the first panel.Stop thinking of them as Panels and start thinking of them as OOP objects that have data that must be shared. It's often a matter of using getters and setters and sometimes requiring a sprinkling of the Observer design pattern.

the original problem sounded like an ideal opportunity to use Modal Dialog. if you want one frame to display another to get user input then you need to stop the method in the main frame from executing until you recieve a valid input.
you can use your own class and keep all of the components that you have in the connect frame but you would have to extend JDialog instead of JFrame.
there is a way around it!
if you must use JFrame for both, then you need to have access to the main frame in the connect frame, maybe pass the pointer to the constructor??
anyway, when the connect frame is done with its duties, you have to use the pointer to call another method in the main frame that will continue the process. otherwise main frame doesn't know when connect frame is done and by that time, the method in main frame that instantiated the connect frame has long since died.
also, it allows things to happen in the other window that you may not want to happen until the connect frame is done
typically users of software start clicking around on things and you could have three or four connect frames going at the same time
it's really best to use a Modal Dialog, it really can look just like a JFrame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
