===Sub-=Step 1 – Create the Main Report===<p>Sub-report is reports within a report; thus, providing a way to generate a report that includes data on the target IMSMA Item as well as data on other IMSMA Items that are associated to the target IMSMA Item. Generally a sub-report 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).</p><p>Regardless of what IMSMA data you’re including in your report and sub-reports, there are 6 basic steps to create a report with sub-reports:</p>=__NOEDITSECTION__

:Step 1 – Create the Main report:Step 2 – Add Sub-report to the Main report:Step 3 – Add Parameter to the Sub-report:Step 4 – Define Report Query for the Sub-report:Step 5 – Add Sub-report Parameter to the Main report:Step 6 – Repeat Step 2-5 for additional Sub-reports [[Image:iRepStep01.png|center|500px|''Step 1 – Create the Main Report'']] ====''Step 1 – Create the Main Report''==== <p>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.</p>

*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.*Determine the relationship between the primary data and the secondary data. How did they get reconciled to one another? How are they linked?

<p>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 “Creating [[Create a Basic Report” iReport Template]] section. Below are the instructions:</p><ol><ol type="a"><li>Create your main report with the IMSMA item determined as the primary data of your report. This is just a basic report.</li><li>Save your main report</li><li>Compile your main report to make sure that it’s error-free.</li></ol></ol>

====''Step 2 – Add Sub-Once the main report has been created you can add a subreport to the main report . The intent of the subreport is to bring data from a different but related datasource into the Main main report. For example, you could include Activity data on a report''====about Land. Below are the instructions to create a subreport:

<p>A Sub-report is a report within a # On the main report. As mentioned earlier, a sub-report should be created with the IMSMA Item determined as the secondary data of the report. Below is the instructions to create a sub-report:</p> #From from the '''Palette''' pane, select '''Subreport''' and drag it to the desired band on the iReport template (normally this is the '''Detail''' band).

#:[[Image:IReportSubReport1.png|center|500px|''Add Sub-report Subreport to the Main report'']]# Click '''Next''' to define a new sub-report subreport unless you have an existing report that you would like to use for sub-reportsubreport.

# Select from the '''Connection/Data Source''' list. This should be the IMSMA item determined as the secondary data of your report. For example, if you are creating a report about Land with Progress Reports, then “Activity” “Hazard Reduction” should be the data source for the sub-reportsubreport. Click Next.

# Select the attributes to be included in your sub-reportsubreport. Click '''Next'''.

# Select the fields to group by. This step is not required. Click '''Next'''.#:[[Image:Subreport_Group_by.png|center|500px|''Select the fields to group by'']]# Enter a name for the sub-report subreport or use the default. Choose '''Next'''.

# Select '''Use the same connection use used to fill master report'''. Click Finish. The sub-report displays.

[[Image:iRepStep03.png|center|500px|''Step 3 – Add Parameter to Sub-report'']] ====Step 3 – Add Parameter to Sub-report==== <p>To connect a sub-report to the Main report, we need to create a parameter for passing the identification (guid) of the primary IMSMA Item between the sub-report and the main report.

====Step 5 – Add Subreport Parameter to Main Report==Kinds of Subreports==__NOEDITSECTION__There are three main kinds of relationships in IMSMA on which subreports can be generated from IMSMA data. These are:*Location relationship*Link relationship*Geospatial relationship*Other relationship

<p>We created a parameter on ===Location relationship subreports===__NOEDITSECTION__Because each of the sub-report to connect main items in {{IMSMANG}}, Accident, Activity, Assistance, Education, Land, QM, and Victim, must be reconciled to a Location during the Main report in Step 3data entry phase, now we need to create each of these objects has a relationship with Location and can thus be a parameter subreport on the Main report as well.

====Step 6 – Repeat Step 2-5 for additional sub-reports.====__NOEDITSECTION__ <p>You can have multiple sub-reports in one Main report.

In this part of the training module, you will learn to create more complex reports that reference multiple data sources. Some items are dependent on the existence of another item. This type of relationship is referred to as a direct relationship. For example, an accident, land, activity, education, QM, or victim has a direct relationship to the location to which it is associated. The accident, land, activity, education, QM, or victim cannot exist unless it is associated with a location. This direct relationship is enforced in IMSMA via the reconciliation process.</p> [[Image:iRep11iRep14.png|center|500px|''Figure 11. Location and item records directly associated with itlocation_guid example'']]

''Figure 11. Location and item records directly associated with itlocation_guid example''

Direct relationships also exist when subsets of data are contained within an itemTo create a subreport using the Location relationship:# From the main "Location" report, pass the location '''''guid''''' to the subreport in a parameter (e.g. in a parameter called '''ItemGUID'''). For example, an education may have education details such # Create a parameter on the subreport with the same name as in #1.# In the education type, total audience, and percentage of women and mensubreport for the related item (e.g. The education details data requires a Victim) use the education to existparameter in the following ImsmaQuery language syntax location. guid="$P{parametername}"

A sub-report is a report that is contained within another report. A report on locations and its associated item records will require you to create a report and a sub-report. The main report will contain the data for the location. For each associated item that you would like to includeexample, you will need to create a sub-report.  [[Image:iRep12.png|center|500px|''Figure 12. Location and associated item records'']]<div align="center">''Figure 12. Location and associated item records''</div> All records Activities are linked with Land in IMSMA have a ''guid''. A ''guid'' is a unique value that identifies the record in the IMSMA {{IMSMANG}} database. Because the guid is lengthy and comprised of alphanumeric characters, it is typically not a useful value to display in a report. However, the guid is necessary in determining which item records have a direct relationship.  All accidentsAccidents, land, activities, educations, assistances, QMs, and victims are associated with a single location. The information about the location may be related to which an item record is associated is stored in the location_guid field of the item table and corresponds to the location_guid of the location to which it is associated ([[:Image:iRep03.png|Figure 13]]).  [[Image:iRep13.png|center|500px|''Figure 13. location_guidone another via '']]<div align="center">links''Figure 13. location_guid''</div> The location_guid field in the item table contains the guid of the location to which the item record is associated.

In this part of the training, you will learn about linked relationships. Linked relationships are optional relationships which may exist between items. Unlike direct relationships that are enforced during the IMSMA reconciliation process, links are optional. Accidents, land, activities, educations, and QMs may be related to one another via ''links''. For example, a victim may be associated to an accident in a particular land. If these relationships are known, IMSMA users may define these links while reconciling the Data Entry Form. Cause

[[Image:iRep21.png|center-| Land || Land Device|-| Accident || Accident Device|-| Assistance ||500pxAssistance Given|''Figure 21. Direct relationships vs. Links'']]-<div align="center">| Task || Work Item''Figure 21. Direct relationships vs. Links''|}</divcenter>

The process for creating a report on an a parent item and its linked items children is similar to the process for creating a same as any other report on items with a direct /subreport relationship. The item in the main report is the primary item for which you would like to find linked items. The sub-report would return the records for the particular item that is linked to the primary item. The key difference is the query used in the sub-report.

If you would like to report on different items that linked to the item in the main report, you may create a new sub-report for each linked item. For example, to create a report of land and the accidents and activities that are linked to those land, you would create the main report on land. This report would then contain a sub-report to list linked accidents, and another sub-report to list linked activities.  ====Part 1. Create a report with attributes for a primary item=Example Subreport Relationships===__NOEDITSECTION__The first part of creating a report on linked items is to create a report which includes the attributes from the primary item for which you would like to list linked items. <ol><li>Ensure that the IMSMA server is started.</li><li>From the '''File''' menu, select '''Report Wizard'''.</li><li>From the '''Connection/Data Sources''' list, select the data source for the primary item.</li></ol> {{note|Table 3.
