I have two reports the first one to show general information and the second one to show details and I need to show each one in a different page in report viewer
can you help me to do that
thanks

Hopefully, the following can help guide you into what you are looking for. First, you will need THREE reports and TWO datatables (or other lists as you have to build your report).
First, On the 3 reports I describe, I would not worry about any of the report final formatting to be perfectly aligned, bold, spacing... get it to work, then you can make it pretty after all is functional.
Next, create a bogus datatable "MyTable" for the sole purpose of creating two records. Even if a single column of "MyGroup" and having it as an int (just for sample purposes).
Now, create two records and set the values in each row to 1 and 2 respectively so your table has
MyGroup
1
2
Now, for the other two reports. It is my understanding that you want the first report to show a summary of each department's totals with a grand-total. The second report is showing the details of all the activity per department. So this is basically using the same dataset returned from whatever query. For this example, I will refer to the datatable as "SalesData".
CREATING THE REPORTS
Create your first report, put a table control on the report, full width you will have for your current reports as landscape or portrait as long as both the same size, you want this report to be the same. Ex: ALL will be portrait. Add your Report Data source to show the "MyTable" and assign that to the table control. Also add the "SalesData" table to the report as well so it is available to the future sub-reports.
On the table control, below where it shows the "Row Groups", add a "Group By" for the "MyGroup" column. This is so we can force a page-break between each group. Once added, right-click on the parent group "MyGroup" and select "Group Properties". This will show an option on the left side to allow you to set page breaks, click the checkbox for "Between each instance of a group". For now, just have the one column in the table control as the "MyGroup" column. Save the report ex: "MySalesRpt.rdlc". Then compile and run the report. You should get this simple report with 2 pages, each showing just the number 1 and 2 respectively. NOTE: You will also want to add the datatable reference for your secondary reports to this main report as well so they are available as sub-reports of the first.
Create a new report ex: "MySalesDetail.rdlc", add the "SalesData" to it. Add a table control to the report and set its source to the "SalesData" table. Include whatever for your detail columns you want to show of the sales activity. Add a data group based on the department, get your sum( salesDollarColumn ). Add a new row outside/below the group footer so you can have the report grand totals as a sum of all ex: SalesDollarColumn. You can test and run this report on its own until it looks correct.
Now, your third report. Copy/paste the MySalesDetail.rdlc report and change it to MySalesSummary.rdlc. So you don't this summary report showing every row that builds the grand total sum() per each department, right-click on the row that represents the details of the group and delete. It will ask if you want to delete rows and associated groups? Reply yes as it will just remove the details row, but keep the group footer that will retain your sum() total per department. Save, test / run this report.
Once all 3 reports work individually, now we can go back to the "MySalesRpt". Add an additional DETAIL row in this otherwise simple 1-detail report. Right-click on the existing detail row and then pick "Insert Row" -> "Inside Group - Below". This will now show as two rows.
Now, in the first row of the report where it did have just a simple textbox, go to your report Toolbox and pick Subreport and put one instance into each row.
On the first row, subreport, right-click and set properties. Set both the Name and "Use this report as a subreport" to the summary report "MySalesSummary". On the second row subreport, do the same but with "MySalesDetail".
Final step. Click on the Subreport representing the "MySalesSummary". Go to the properties of that and scroll down to the "Hidden" property. You want to have this value set to the expression: ex: "=Fields!MyGroup.Value = 2". This way the report will ONLY be generate when it is on the first record where MyGroup = 1.
Similarly, on the second subreport representing the detail, set the hidden equal to the opposite.. "=Fields!MyGroup.Value = 1". Hide when the MyGroup = 1. This way you can have each report on their own page, but only one will show up per group.
I know is sounds deep, but do it slowly and it should work for you. I already did and confirmed this process works. Sorry so many steps, but it has to be broken into multiple parts to tie them all together as you are requesting.
One rdlc in main local report and the other in subreport. Then set InteractiveSize in the main local report to break it to show each one in a different page in report viewer.

I am creating a Report on RDLC. Lets say i have 2 tables in database where im importing data from users and expenses.
Each user can have multiple Expenses. Expenses contain Details and amount just 2 columns that i have to include in the report.
Ive created a stored procedure but its duplicating rows because of having same UserId in expenses. So far im able to achieve this.
See This Picture
What i wanted is that One row with column bulty id and other details with multiple sub rows of expenses.
How can i achieve this. I've tried hide duplicate property in RDLC but its showing duplicate column fields
This is what i wanted to achieve
See image
in this case, I use matrix tool in RDL file.
you should set expenses the ColumnGroup of the matrix
Solved it by doing the Master/Detail Approach. Put 2 tablix in the list. on the first tablix set user details and made a row group so that the values dont repeat and then on the second tablix used the additional data fields.
Then dragged this additional data tablix into the row of first tablix and everything seems to work just fine.
For serial numbering i used Counting distinct values according to my userid
I want to display data-set record in different pages . i am using rdlc reporting in c# win form.
in rdlc design i am using text-box which show only single data.
i want to display all data but in separate separate pages.
actually i am printing multiple cards in bulk , it should be in different pages so i am unable to do.
kindly help me.
I already try page-break in rdlc report but its not working
this.sp_bulkprintTableAdapter.Fill(this.db_ShopDataSet10.sp_bulkprint, date1, date2, Convert.ToInt32(catname));
See the image here to understand what i want. i want to print this type of cards in bulk from database using simple select query. what i am facing problem is textbox is not showing multiple records and each record on different page.
i have done with it by performing following steps
1) add table in rdlc report
2) remove header row and two default columns remaining single row and single column.
3)enlarge the table
4)remove the default textbox in table
5)add rectangle --- add page break here
6) add textboxes. (multiple).
Now each row of my data is printing on different page.
Make sure that your page size is correct.
I found that I could just drop a List (Toolbox: Report Items -> List) component on the page. Stretch it to fill the area you desire and drag fields into appropriate locations. Works great for making individual labels for each data row.

I am working on a winform application for the first time and I have a gridview which contains a list of products users have bought.
I have a Print button on click which allows the user to generate a receipt like the one below:
So here I am confused whether I should use "winform default RDLC or Crystal Report" or whether I should generate PDF and then let it print out as receipt, but I am not sure if PDF is a good option for receipt generation or not.
For Crystal Report, I have read that I need to install it and client (who will use this desktop application) had to install Crystal Report and also there is some licensing involve with Crystal Report which I don't want.
Also if I use Crystal Report then I am not sure if it would be possible to generate exactly above receipt (with table formatting) and will it be complicated?
Receipt is bit complicated so is there a better tool or way, or how should I generate receipt I have shown in above image?

using (OleDbDataAdapter oda = new OleDbDataAdapter(query, cnnxls))
{
oda.Fill(dtProductList);
DataColumnCollection columns = dtProductList.Columns;
if (!columns.Contains("FinalAmount"))
{
dtProductList.Columns.Add(new DataColumn() { ColumnName = "FinalAmount", DataType = typeof(decimal) });
}
if (!columns.Contains("Quantity"))
{
dtProductList.Columns.Add(new DataColumn() { ColumnName = "Quantity", DataType = typeof(int) });
}
DataRow lastRow = dtProductList.Rows[dtProductList.Rows.Count - 1];
lastRow["FinalAmount"] = Convert.ToDecimal(lastRow["MRP"]);
lastRow["Quantity"] = 1;
}

You can use any report designer tool like RDLC Reports or Crystal Reports to generate a report. RDLC reports are good enough. You can print the RDLC report with or without showing the print dialog. You can also easily export the RDLC report manually or using the code.
If for any reason you don't want to use a reporting tool, as another option you can consider generating HTML report easily using Run-time T4 templates.
Using an RDLC report, how to show multiple fields in a single cell
You can easily use an expression to show multiple values in a single cell. Also as another option, you can use rows in a single row group and show different fields in a single column.
Example 1 - RDLC - Show multiple fields in a single column using expression
The following steps show you how you can display multiple fields in a single column using expression. I assume you have set up the data source and have ProductName, UnitPrice and Quantity fields. Then, follow these steps:
Drop a Table from toolbox on the report design surface.
In first column, first data row (not the header row), right click and choose ProductName (image)
Select the header of the second column and type UnitPrice/Quantity (image)
In second column, first data row, right click and choose Expression. (image)
In the expression window, enter the desired expression, for example:
= "UnitPrice: " & Fields!UnitPrice.Value.ToString() & System.Environment.NewLine & "Quantitye: " & Fields!Quantity.Value.ToString()
Example 2 - RDLC - Show multiple fields in a single column using row group
The following steps show you how you can display multiple fields in a single column. I assume you have set up the data source and have ProductName, UnitPrice and Quantity fields. Then, follow these steps:
Drop a Table from toolbox on the report design surface.
In first column, first data row (not the header row), right click and choose ProductName (image)
Select the header of the second column and type UnitPrice/Quantity (image)
Right click on row header of the first data row and choose Insert Row → Inside Group - Below (image)
In second column, first data row, right click and choose UnitPrice. (image)
Click on the [UnitPrice], and then press Home and type UnitPrice: (image)
Do the same for Quantity, in the next row in the group.
If you need another row in the group, repeat step 3.
You can setup borders of the cells by selecting them and setting BorderStyle individually for top, left, bottom and right.

A quick and easy way I used before was to generate a html page, and then use the html2pdf library to convert it to a pdf file.
You may also consider this approach since the RDLC reports/Crystal reports may be a overkill for your case.
The RDLC is powerful as well as Crystal reports. You may choose the rdlc which comes close in eliminating licensing costs.
Using RDLC
Data
You need to add datasets Here or data sources to the report which you will manipulate to meet the design and data you want.
Design
On design you just drag and drop controls to your taste. There is a challenge that sometimes what you see on the design may not what be you see on final output so you need to test much.
Printing
You can put a print preview or send directly to a pdf viewer using rdlc. Here is an example.
Conclusion
I think If you have your data generated well on the report, the design and layout won't be much of a problem using both rdlc and crystal reports.
UPDATE
Based on further information provided I have tried to do something that may come close to what you want to achieve.
I have used crystal reports as well as database table to simulate because of time. Otherwise the same can be achieved using rdlc.
The sample table i created
Here is the sample query and results from the database. I have made groups that can be accomodated by the crystal reports. You can do calculated text values using the same to put distinction between the Tax information as well as Transaction Memo.
Here is the final look after tweaking the design. The page layout may also be tweaked with regards to your taste.
Update.
For RDLC I think you need to add datasets for memo data and tax information. Take a look at the below if it comes close. I failed to make a preview there were components I hadn't installed.
for adding 3 columns in one cell
you have two options:
1- Use new line expression
=Fields!MyField1.Value + System.Environment.NewLine + Fields!MyField2.Value
2- Use something like subreport or grouping in rdlc.
the first option seams easier
I need to create a RDLC report from a MySQL db that needs to show timecard info per user, per day between 2 dates (user choice) Like this eg:
UserFirstName UserLastName
2019-01-11 InTimeStamp OutTimeStamp TimeSpan
2019-01-12 InTimeStamp OutTimeStamp TimeSpan
2019-01-13 InTimeStamp OutTimeStamp TimeSpan
2019-01-14 InTimeStamp OutTimeStamp TimeSpan
Total: totalTimeForThePeriod
I need this for every user within the dates provided by the user.
I have already setup the HR report page and the date choice (works perfectly) but I can`t seem to be able to format my RDLC report to show the info as requested. How can I seperate the data to acheive this? My dataset gets all the data from the db (query works great). All I need to do now is to show it properly in the report. Any ideas on how I can acheive this?
I've tried using a simple table but that does'nt work.
I also tried a matrix, but I can't seem to show the data as requested.
You'll want to go one by one creating your rows. Also have your Grouping window open, so you can see your grouping. First right click where you want your first row and click Add Group -> Parent Group. In the Group by: drop down select a UserFirstName. Then it should add UserFirstName to your grid. To the right of it add UserLastName. Next in your grouping window under Row Groups click the drop down arrow on (UserFirstName) and click Add Group->Child Group. This time group by [TimeStampDate]. This will create a new row under your original row that is a sub group of UserFirstName. Add in the addition data in this new row. Lastly in the grouping window under Row Groups click the drop down on TimeStampDate then click Add Total->After. This should add a total row under the TimeStampDate row. You can change the [Sum(TimeStampDate )] to [totalTimeForThePeriod]. This should get you what you need.
[UserFirstName] [UserLastName]
[TimeStampDate] [InTimeStamp] [OutTimeStamp] [TimeSpan]
Total: [totalTimeForThePeriod]
I struggled with the same issue for hours, so I hope this helps!
My stored procedure gets info from SQL DB. Now I want to add the info to a crystal report and display the PDF with all the details.
I use Visual Studio with Crystal reports installed, coding in C# using Dataset to get my info from SQL. The info is a list of names with 3 other details that goes with those names (columns). At times it can be one name as a result, or it can be 3 names as a result.
My aim is to have a table on the report, and each table row lists a name in the first column, then in the 3 consecutive columns its corresponding details. Same look to the SQL table you get when pulling the info.
To setup the individual columns is easy, drag each field onto the report. But how can I split the names so that I have one name listed per table row? This is the result from query:
I want to populate it into my Crystal form which looks like this:
The solution that I have ended up with was to create a sub report, place it on top of the table I have created in my second picture. Then added the columns to the sub-report, took away any borders. And then between the container size on the report and with the paragraph options of the container I adjusted the line spaces. Now if I have more than one row in the list, it appears on each line as needed.
