A Subreport subreport is a report within a report; thus, providing a way to generate a report that includes data on the target IMSMA Item item as well as data on other IMSMA Items items that are associated to the target IMSMA Itemitem. Generally a subreport is used in a situation where you have one or more sets of data relating to a single IMSMA item. A common use case would be a Location report with multiple details bands of different IMSMA items (Land, Activity, Accident, Victim, Education, and QM).

Regardless of what IMSMA data you’re including in your report and sub-reportssubreports, there are 5 basic steps to create a report with subreports::Step 1 – Create the Main main report:Step 2 – Add Sub-report a subreport to the Main main report:Step 3 – Add Parameter a parameter to the Subreportsubreport:Step 4 – Define Report Query the report query for the Subreportsubreport:Step 5 – Add Subreport Parameter subreport parameter to the Main main report

Before creating the main report, you will need to determine what data to should be included on in your report. For example, if you are creating a report about Land with all the Progress Report data, then the target IMSMA item for your main report should be Land and the target data for your sub-report subreport should be Activity assuming that Progress Reports are entered into the system as Activity. Below is a list of questions and things to be considered when designing a report.

*What is the target IMSMA Item item for the Main main report? This is the primary data of your report.*What is the target IMSMA Item item for the sub-reportssubreports? This is the secondary data of your report.

The Main main report should be created with the IMSMA item determined to be the primary data of your report. The Main main report is just a basic report and can be created using the steps provided in the [[Create a Basic i-Report Template]] section.
