Create data models with an easy-to-use query builder
Data query preparation consumes most of your time, but with our Report Designer, data query generation can be done with a few clicks. The easy-to-use drag-and-drop query builder helps both technical and nontechnical users to create and view relationships between tables.
The Report Designer allows you to easily transform your data into beautiful reports. The WYSIWYG user interface allows the report to be edited in the same UI it is printed or displayed. Furthermore, you can easily edit a report with mouse, touchscreen, or keyboard interfaces.
Parameters are the most widely used functionalities to interact with an RDL/RDLC report at runtime. The following parameter types allow you to modify the data presentation to provide an enhanced user experience:
Report Designer provides an expression builder that allows you to create simple and complex RDL expressions. Expressions are used throughout report definition to vary the content or appearance of a report. The following are some uses of expressions:
Set dynamic values to any properties such as color, font, and more.
Create additional operations such as mathematical computations, conditional formatting, conversions, and more.
Use constants, built-in fields, parameters, fields, data sets, variables, operators, common functions, and more.
Editing a report and its report items is simple with support for basic editing operations such as cut, copy, paste, undo, and redo.
View reports
The WYSIWYG Report Designer provides an option to preview reports and verify whether the created report displays what you require. The reports are displayed using the ASP.NET WebForms Report Viewer.
Provides support to set up print options like paper size, margins, and orientation of the printable output and preview the result.
Print and export
Effortlessly print and export report contents by just clicking the print/export option in the toolbar. The most popular file formats are supported, including PDF, Word, Excel, CSV, PowerPoint, XML, and HTML.
Save and share reports
The ASP.NET WebForms Report Designer allows you to save reports to Bold Report Server or SSRS Report Server, and to your computer in the Microsoft RDL standard. Publishing a report to the server allows other users who have permission to access the server to view it.
Users can open and edit any SSRS RDL/RDLC report that is already created. The edited report can be previewed and saved to the same or a different location.
You have control over all UI elements—toolbar, widget panel, parameter block, page, and dialogs—and behaviors of the ASP.NET WebForms Report Designer. It provides the best user experience through a rich set of developer-friendly APIs.
