Dynamic Parameters

Hi All,

I am stuck with a report, could you please help.

I have a dynamic stored procedure, which depending on Begindate and Enddate displays columns deptname and amount (depending on the month the amount field is going to sum and display the results in the appropriate date fields), that is sum(amount) in Jan05,Feb05,Mar05......depending on the Begindate and Enddate, it's displays the values.

EX:-

Deptname Jan 05 Feb 05 Mar 05

Housing 5 5 5

Shipping 45 56 85

Handling 10 14 18

How do i incorporate this into the Report designer, because when i use this Stored procedure and create a report, i can see the values coming in the Dataset, but i don't see the Amount values coming into the Preview Page.I only see deptname coming into the Preview page.

i am building a string in the Stored procedure.(Just Letting you know)

what can i do to make the amount values be displayed under appropriate month.

Thanks,

What is the output of stored procedure? It should return date, category, Quantitiy/Number (appears in dataset)

If you return those three values from stored procedure then you can use Table grouping feature in the Report desinger to build the report.

Thanks

I am getting values from the Stored procedure and also able to see the results in the Dataset on the report designer DATA page, but when it comes to laying out the Report on the report designer LAYOUT page and see the PREVIEW, that is where my problem comes.

I am able to display the Department name column but not the Amount column which i have grouped by Year and month.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

If you get into Dataset then you will surely have those values in Layout/Preview pages too.

Can you verify textbox properties in the layout screen and see are you able to get dataset values there or not? Also check visibility attribute of those text fileds too?

As a simple test, you can verify this by placing a textbox and set those dataset values and see the preview.

Thanks

|||I have a other feeling that you may doing something wrong in the Grouping section. Are you building drill-down report? If yes you have to check toggle items?|||

Ok, i was doing it right, but the only thing which i was doing wrong was using a tabluar layout.

I have used Matrix layout and it worked.

Thanks,
