Friends,

I'm facing a situation here wherein i have to refer data fields from Sub report to main report. Below is the detailed scenario

Main Report :

Currency 1        Subreport_A. Calc_Amount ( summary field from A subreport)

Currency 1        Subreport_B. Calc_Amount ( summary field from A subreport)

                        Difference ( A-B )


Currency 2        Subreport_A. Calc_Amount ( summary field from A subreport)

Currency 2        Subreport_B. Calc_Amount ( summary field from A subreport)

                        Difference ( A-B )


Currency 3        Subreport_A. Calc_Amount ( summary field from A subreport)

Currency 3        Subreport_B. Calc_Amount ( summary field from A subreport)

                        Difference ( A-B )



Subreport A:


Currency 1          Calc Amount   

Currency 2          Calc Amount

Currency 3          Calc Amount


Subreport B:


Currency 1          Calc Amount   

Currency 2          Calc Amount

Currency 3          Calc Amount


Please let me know how can i make this work?


I tried using shared variables , but they ended up carrying only one single value ( Not the whole data field).


Thanks in Advance,

Hi Bharath,

Shared variables can carry only value at at time - not the entire column values.

Could you please provide more details on the design of the report and what you're trying to achieve?

Abhilash,

Above is the detailed design of the report. Can be briefed as below.

Section 1 :

               Main page

Section 2:

               Sub report A

Section 3:

               Sub report B

Main page will be displaying the summary , then the sub reports will display details.

Nope Abhilash,

Just got a requirement. Apart from the main page ( referring sub report's data ) , its quite basic.
