Hello Kinshuk,
If you are already using the FlexReport created using ComponentOne in your desktop applications, you can also use these reports in the web version with wijmo.
If you have not created any reports yet, then I would suggest you use the FlexReport designer to create reports. Please follow the link below to get started:
https://www.grapecity.com/flexreport
To show the reports using wijmo, you can use the ReportViewer control. The ReportViewer control takes the C1WebApi link along with the report filename and report’s name. To get started with ReportViewer, please go through the link below:
https://www.grapecity.com/wijmo-reportviewer
You may also refer to the demo sample for reference:
https://www.grapecity.com/wijmo/demos/Viewer/ReportViewer/ViewingFlexReportReports/purejs
You can also view SSRS reports and ActiveReports in the ReportViewer control.
If you have any other doubts, please feel free to contact us.
Regards,
Ashwin

Hi Kinshuk,
It seems like you are using C1Reports in your desktop applications. C1Report is now obsolete so I would suggest you use FlexReport in your web as well as your desktop application. To convert C1Report to FlexReport, you can follow the blog post below:
https://www.grapecity.com/blogs/3-ways-to-convert-your-c1report-to-flexreport
In order to use FlexReport in a web application, you will need to host it on C1WebApi. To host your report on the web API, you may follow the procedure below:
https://www.grapecity.com/componentone/docs/webapi/online-webapi/ReportServices.html
Regarding the ReportViewer sample:
The issue occurs because the sample is created using SystemJS module loader. I have attached a purejs sample at the end.
Regarding data from API:
The FlexReport will be hosted on a web API which can directly connect to the database. So, I would suggest you use the database to bind the report.
In case this option does not work, could you please let us know your requirements so that I could provide you a solution based on it.

Hi Kinshuk,
Sorry for the late response.
Currently, Report services are only compatible up to .Net Core 2.1 with .Net Framework. If you wish, you can create a WebApi application for hosting the reports in Visual Studio by using the ‘C1 Web API Application for ASP.NET Core (.Net Framework)’.
I have attached a sample application that hosts a simple report using JSON data. You will need to create a class that will return the report according to the JSON data provided by creating a DataTable from the data and setting this DataTable as the DataSource of the FlexReport.

Hello
I am checking your sample code . I have 1 more query can we bind report with DataSet or API (JSON) data. i need to bind multipal sub reports with Dataset and API(JSON). if yes then please provide sample code with Dataset and API(JSON)
ashwin.saxena
Posted 7 January 2020, 5:56 pm EST
Hi,
Please refer to the updated sample attached.
In this sample, I have created a class MemoryReportsProvider which gets the id that is passed to the report (in your case, the name or id of the user that is logged in).
After getting the id, this class calls the GetJsonEmployees method providing id as the parameter. The GetJsonEmployees method calls another API where the data is contained and uses the returned JSON data to create a DataSet.
This DataSet is then passed back to the MemoryReportsProvider and it sets this DataSet as the DataSource of the report.
Let us know if you have any doubts.

Hello ,
Hope you are doing well.
Please check below my queries .
The .flxr file always save in XML format or will in JSON?
Static code you have used in Startup.cs its mandatory for declaration “MemoryReportsProvider” class ? I want to call dynamic call like customer report call “Customer.cs” class, invoice report call “Invoice.cs” class like this. Or if is possible to call dynamically then do i need to declare in startup.cs file ? Because i have thousands of reports of customers.
Is it fixed to call “CreateDocument” function default when call report?
Is it fixed report.DataSources take data in only form of DataTable ? Or Is take any other format like DataSet, Json like ?
Please check below API. Its return JSON result. I need to create invoice report .In this API Parent node have Customer,Invoice general information like (No. ,Date,Total). And in “TransDetail” node have details list of products. Can you please let me know how can i create this type of report ? Both option API (JSON) data, and DataSet (Multipal Table)
Please clear my above doubts.
Thanks & Regards
Kinshuk

Hi Kinshuk,
I am doing well thank you for asking.
All of the FlexReports files are generated in XML but their file extension in .flxr.
The CreateDocument is an abstract method of ReportsProvider class which is used to customize the reports dynamically. This method is called internally and we cannot change it.
We are sorry but the report cannot take DataSet as the DataSource. It can only take DataTable, DataView or and IList object.
We are currently working on your other queries. We will update you as soon as possible.

Hi,
I have some doubts that I needed to ask.
Regarding Q2:
You do not need to specify the report location and name in the constructor itself. In the CreateDocument method, the first parameter is ‘path’ that contains the location and name of the report. You can use it in your application to load reports dynamically.
If this does not solve the issue, could you please explain more about your use case?
Regarding Q5:
I was unable to understand your requirements in this query. You can create a report using the FlexReportDesigner and design it in any you wish. Could you please explain what is your issue regarding this?
Regarding subreport:
To solve this, you will first need to remove the ‘Main’ data source from the ‘Dtl’ report using the FlexReportDesigner. Then you will need to find the section of the Main report containing the SubReport and set its data source instead of loading the subreport using the Load method. Refer to the sample attached.
~regards

I have hosted on VPS server for auto print. unable to do this. Please let know how can i fire auto print report on client printer?
ashwin.saxena
Posted 15 January 2020, 5:54 pm EST
Hi Kinshuk,
Regarding printing:
The reports are printed using the PrintDocument class of Wijmo which requires the data that needs to be printed, on the DOM. Therefore, the only way to print a report is to use the Print option provided in the ReportViewer control.
Regarding IIS:
I am working on publishing the application to IIS. I will update you once I have completed it and observed the results. In the meantime, please make sure that the report files are copied to the published directory. If not, then try copying the files manually.
~regards

Thanks for the response.
Regarding printing:
I have tried below code for print its working local system but when i try to upload on VPS server below code give error. I think it find printer on VPS server not in client system.
report.Print();
Regarding IIS:
yes report file is already have in publish directory . report view is working fine now but issue is in auto printing.
ashwin.saxena
Posted 15 January 2020, 10:48 pm EST
Hi Kinshuk,
Glad to know that you were able to resolve the server issue.
Regarding printing:
The printing issue is expected because the Print method will print the FlexReport using the machine on which the application is running, as in your case, the VPS server. This method is mostly used in the WinForms application because it is not divided between server-side and client-side.
That is why the ReportViewer controls provide their own implementation to print the reports. Currently, we can print the report using only the print option provided in the viewer. But I have added an enhancement request to add a method to print the report in ReportViewer control of wijmo. The internal tracking id of the case is 417245. I will update you as soon as this is implemented.

Hi Kinshuk,
I converted the C1Report to FlexReport but I cannot check it since I do not have the data source to verify it and application provided is giving the following error:
The type or namespace name ‘GeneralClass’ could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Could you please provide me with a working sample or the data source so that I can verify whether it is working or not. I am attaching the newly created Report.flxr file also.

Posted 26 January 2020, 10:50 pm EST
Hi Kinshuk,
At my end, even if I set the Text property of the Field to this function, the function is not executed and is shown in the report as it is and not evaluated. Is this the same issue you are facing at your end?
~regards
kinshuk4u4u
Posted 27 January 2020, 5:27 pm EST
Hello Ashwin,
Yes I am facing same issue . but the main issue is “IF” condition in the expression. other are working like (LEFT,LTRIM,RTRIM etc).
for example :
LEFT(LTRIM(RTRIM(REPLACE(PartyAddress,CHR(10)," “))),54)+SPACE(54-LEN(LEFT(LTRIM(RTRIM(REPLACE(PartyAddress,CHR(10),” "))),54)))
if you provide me solution of “IF” condition then i will continue to implementation.

Posted 5 February 2020, 8:31 pm EST
Hi Kinshuk,
The developers have said that the If condition expression was incorrect syntax-wise. The actual statement should be:
Iif((Len(Party) > 1),LTrim(Party),RTrim(Party))
You will need to update these statements in your report. You may go through the attached simple report for your reference.
We are really sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Hi Kinshuk,
The fields added in the FlexReport are of the Field class. If you want to add a calculated expression to the Data in the Field, you need to use the ‘=’ operator. That means your expression should be:
=Iif((Len(LIC1) > 0),"TIN No."+Left(LIC1,20),"YES")
Also, I ran the report with the original JSON data provided and I found that LIC1 is not a field in the data set. Can you please make sure that a simple LIC1 field is being displayed in the report without using the If expression?
~regards
