This function would allow you to lookup a value from another data source with a value that is in your current data source.  It would return the first matching value for the specified name from a data source that contains name/value pairs.

This would allow the porting of many SSRS reports over to Telerik Reporting.

Example: 

I have a report which lists all sales staff in our firm, with other personal information. We have a multi-dimensional data source (Cube) where we have all the financial data stored and calculated. 

If I wanted to retrieve the total sales and total revenue that each member of the sales staff had, it would require me to use a sub-report to load the data (using a parameter to pass the staff member's unique ID).  

This causes the loading/generating of the report to take longer, as the query against the Cube has to happen for each member of the sales staff, because of the use of a sub-report. With this new LOOKUP() function, it would allow the data source to be loaded and the report would be able to lookup the sales and revenue values for each staff member ID.

Hello Team,

 

I will be great if the Telerik Reporting REST Service Core could support System.Text.Json serialization.

 

Best Regards,

As a developer
I would like to have a built-in support for rendering various gauges in the report content
So that I can represent numeric values in a visually appealing way.

Dark theme is so much needed.

Hello,

We would like to know if/and when Query Designer will be implemented in web report designer?

Hi

I need to adjust line spacing in multiple line textbox but currently there seems to be no way to do that. Please add this feature!

Thanks

The config.Routes.MapHttpRoute("ApiDefault", firstPathSegment + "/{controller}/{action}"); defined in ReportsControllerConfiguration.RegisterRoutes hides other matching route patterns registered after it - for example  api/{controller}/{id} will not be matched, because it has the same route pattern.

Hello,
RadPdfProcessing supports PDF/A 1-3 since Q1/2015. It would be nice if the Report engine would also support PDF/A exports.
PDF/A will bevome the future european standard for invoicing (ZUGFeRD) and is the current  standard for long time archival of digital documents.

Regards,
Chris

It will be nice to have a proper (Official) TypeScript definition for the HTML5 Report Viewer. 

All Telerik Reporting assemblies to be distributed via Nuget packages, in order to ease deploying a solution that uses Telerik Reporting and to share the solution with other developers.
Note: Without having Telerik Reporting installed on the machine, there will be no design-time support (Upgrade and other wizards, VS Report Designer, etc.). The purpose of the packages is only deployment.

I need an option to set line height for contest in report.

When exporting a report to PDF on Linux the document looks correct. If you try to copy text from this PDF and paste it in a text editor, the text appears as random symbols, e.g. empty squares.

New development is being done with net core 3.1 and netstandard 2.1 and we can no longer create reports in the Report Designer using the ObjectDataSource.

Seems like it's time to update the standalone Report Designer for these new standards.

When trying to duplex print a report that has odd page numbers, the next report's first page prints on the back of the previous report. We need the ability to conditionally insert a page break based on whether the report's (the group's) page count is odd or even. Since we don't have access to the global pagecount variable outside the footer, there is no way to use it to insert a page break into the body of the report. This seems like it would be such a common need with the desire by many to save paper that it would be an obvious feature to include in the product. Thanks.

I had a very challenging time getting Telerik Reports to work with my business objects. I'm not the only one -- see this thread:

http://www.telerik.com/forums/how-to-use-object-data-source-in-report-designer

This could be improved by:
1. Don't make users manually edit <Telerik.Reporting>. Create a UI in the designer where DLL's can be manually selected.
2. If there are errors loading the DLL's in <Telerik.Reporting>, tell the user, rather than failing silently, which is the current behavior. Importing reports from DLL's has the same silent-failure behavior: if there's something not quite right about the DLL's (wrong architecture setting, for example), you just see "no reports to import" rather than the actual error (bad file format, or whatever).

I think a little work on the user experience around custom business objects would make new users who want to use the stand alone report designer in this way much happier. I was really surprised and frustrated that a modern product would fail like this with no exposed error messages.

Add a property to be able to suppress duplicate values in a column, which could be  optionally shown after a page break.

There is nothing really pro outside visual controls for reactJs to many source to many projects could be amazing if telerik create this full set including the report viewer 

I have a following default code in a html file for a web designer.

$(document).ready(function () {
            $("#webReportDesigner").telerik_WebReportDesigner({
                persistSession: false,
                toolboxArea: {
                    layout: "list"
                },
                serviceUrl: "some url",
                report: "some_report_name",
            }).data("telerik_WebDesigner");
        });

I have also a custom report storage implemented from IDefinitionStorage, where I have a GetDefinition("some_report_name") method implemented in a custom way. In order to do that, I need to send additional parameters from a web designer (html code provided previously) but don't know how to do that. 

For example, I need to open SalesInvoice.trdx file and I do a following: report: "SalesInvoice.trdx". If i need to send additional parameter, let's say some kind of token, there is no good place to send it. As a work around, i am doing report: "SalesInvoice.trdx&token=123". The problem with this, it is appearing in a title of a web designer and I don't want that. In an attachments, there is a screenshot where it looks good with a simple name and the one which has a token in it.

So, the question is, can I send other parameters as well from a client side of web designer to the server like parameters or so?

In a HTML5 ReportViewer we can send report file name and parameters as a reportSource like this:

                    serviceUrl: serviceUrl,
                    reportSource: {
                        report: reportUrl,
                        parameters: reportParams,

Can we do the same? Or how can I do that?

As a developer, I need to be able to align an image that is scaled proportionally in top-left for example, so that it looks more aesthetic and as required from the clients who use for example logos of various sizes. I.e., my expectation is that I should be able to specify both "Scale Proportional" AND Image Alignment, both horizontal and vertical.
