Master-master report

Top  Previous  Next

On the report page, you can print several simple lists. This can be done, by placing on the page two or several "Data" bands. Contrary to master-detail report, where bands are nested into each other and prints data from related sources, in a report of this type both bands and data sources do not depend on each other.

 

We will show by an example, how to create a report which prints two lists on a page - Categories table and Customers table. We will create a new report and add into it needed data sources. In order to add a second "Data" band, call the "Configure Bands" window.

Right click on an empty place of the list, as shown in the figure, and select "Data" band in the context menu. This creates a new independent "Data" band. The report template will be like this:

 

master-master2

 

Now, we will connect the band to the data source and place several data columns on it:

If we run the report, we will see the following:
