==Advanced Reports=={{TOC right}}===Sub-Report=Creating Subreports==__NOEDITSECTION__<p>Sub-A subreport is a report is reports 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 sub-report 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 (HazardLand, Hazard ReductionActivity, Accident, Victim, MREEducation, and QCQM).</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>

Regardless of what IMSMA data you’re including in your report and subreports, 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 Sub-reportsubreport:Step 4 – Define Report Query the report query for the Sub-reportsubreport:Step 5 – Add Sub-report Parameter subreport parameter to the Main main report:Step 6 – Repeat Step 2-5 for additional Sub-reports

[[Image:iRepStep01.png|center|500px|''====Step 1 – Create the Main Report'']]====__NOEDITSECTION__

====''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 Hazard Land with all the Progress Report data, then the target IMSMA item for your main report should be Hazard Land and the target data for your sub-report subreport should be Hazard Reduction Activity assuming that Progress Reports are entered into the system as Hazard ReductionActivity. 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>

[[Image:iRepStep02.png|center|500px|''====Step 2 – Add Sub-report Subreport to the Main report'']]====__NOEDITSECTION__

====''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:

# On the main report, from the '''Palette''' pane, select '''Subreport''' and drag it to the desired band on the iReport template (normally this is the '''Detail''' band).#:[[Image:IReportSubReportPalette.png|center|300px|''Subreport Palette'']]<div align="center">''Subreport Palette''<p/div>Sub-# Release the button and the window below displays.#:[[Image:IReportSubReport1.png|center|500px|''Add Subreport to the Main report is reports within '']]# Click '''Next''' to define a new subreport unless you have an existing reportthat you would like to use for subreport.# Select the desired iReport Template to apply (Blank is recommended).#:[[Image:IReportSubReport2.png|center|500px|''Select the desired iReport Template'']]# Select from the '''Connection/Data Source''' list. As mentioned earlier, a sub-report This should be created with the IMSMA Item item determined as the secondary data of your report. For example, if you are creating a report about Land with Progress Reports, then “Hazard Reduction” should be the data source for the reportsubreport. Click Next.#:[[Image:IReportSubReport3.png|center|500px|''Select the desired datasource'']]# Select the attributes to be included in your subreport. Below Click '''Next'''.#:[[Image:IReportSubReport4.png|center|500px|''Select the desired fields for the subreport'']]# Select the fields to group by. This step is not required.

To connect a subreport to the main report, we next need to create a parameter for passing the identification (guid) of the primary IMSMA item between the subreport and the main report. In the '''Report Inspector''' on the subreport, [[Image:iRepBandScreen.pngModify an iReport Template#Adding a Parameter to an iReport Template|center|500pxadd a Parameter]]to hold the guid of the IMSMA item on the main report. It is recommended to add a fairly generic parameter name such as ''ItemGUID'' so that the subreport can be more easily re-used.

<ol type="a" start="4"><li>Click # From the Report Inspector, '''right click''' on the '''Parameter''' tree and choose '''NextAdd Parameter''' to define a new sub-report unless you have an existing report that you would like to use for sub-report.</li><li>Select from #: [[Image:IReport AddParameter1.png|center|250px|''Add Parameter'']]# In the '''Connection/Data SourceProperties''' listpane, enter a parameter name (e.

[[Image:iRepStep03.png|center|500px|''====Step 3 4 – Add Parameter to Sub-report'']]Define Report Query for Subreport====__NOEDITSECTION__

====The next step is to create a report query for the subreport you just created in Step 2 to define how the IMSMA item on the main report is related to the IMSMA item on the subreport. Typically the subreport report query will receive the guid from the main report via the parameter created in Step 3 – Add Parameter and then use it to limit items in the subreport to those linked to the main report. Below is the instructions on how to Sub-define the report====query:

<p>To connect a sub-# Open the [[Modify an iReport Template#Using Report Query filters|report to query window]].# From the Main reportquery window, we need to create select '''ImsmaQuery''' from the query language list.# Enter a report query filter using the parameter for passing defined above to limit the identification (guid) of objects according to the primary IMSMA Item between the sub-main report and the main object. The most common reportquery filter would be to filter to only linked objects. Below is For example '''''links.toGuid="$P{ItemGUID}"'''''. In this step, the instructions Report Query tells the subreport to return only rows that are linked to create the parameter you need for guid of the item in the sub-main report:</p> <ol start="a"><li>At via the Sub-link table. Other combinations of report window, select View -> Parametersquery filters can be used on subreports beyond the link table. :The window displays These are documented in the parameters. </ol> [[Image:iRep09#Example Subreport Relationships|Possible Subreport Relationships]] section below.png|center|500px|# Click ''Figure 9.

====Step 5 – Link the Subreport to the Main Report====__NOEDITSECTION__Now that both the main and the subreport are ready, the only thing that remains to be done is linking the two together. Below are the instructions to link the two reports:# Make sure you are at the main report by selecting the name of the main report from the tabs at the top of the iReport Designer canvas pane.# Select the subreport box within the main report.#: [[Image:IReportSubReportSelection.png|center|500px|''Select the Subreport on the main report'']]<ol typediv align="a" start="2center">''Select the Subreport on the main report''<li/div>Click # On the '''Properties''' pane for the Subreport, select the '''NewParameter''' buttonselector.#: [[Image:IReport_SubReportProperties.png|center|200px|''Subreport properties'']]<div align="center">''Subreport properties''</lidiv>:The # '''Add/modify ''' a parameter and type '''exactly the name of the subreport parameter window displayscreated in step 3''' (e.g.''ItemGUID'')#: [[Image:IReport_SubReportParameter.png|center|200px|''Add a parameter'']]<lidiv align="center">From the ''Add/modify a parameter window:''</lidiv>*Enter “# For the '''value expression''object_guid', select the appropriate field to include in the parameter.

[[Image:iRepStep04You are now ready to run your main report. Running (i.e.png|center|500px|''Step 4 – Define Report Query for Sub-previewing) the main report'']]will automatically run the subreport(s) as well, and the data from the main as well as from the subreport(s) will be included in the output.

==Kinds of Subreports==Step 4 – Define Report Query for Sub-report====__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>The next step is to create a report query for ===Location relationship subreports===__NOEDITSECTION__Because each of the sub-report you just created main items in Step 2 {{IMSMANG}}, Accident, Activity, Assistance, Education, Land, QM, and Victim, must be reconciled to define how a Location during the IMSMA item data entry phase, each of these objects has a relationship with Location and can thus be a subreport on the Main a Location main report . Since all accidents, land, activities, educations, QMs, assistances, and victims are associated with a single location each record knows what location it is related to based on the IMSMA item on '''''location guid''''' field. When creating a report where the Sub-main report. Below is a Location and the subreport is one of the associated objects the Location's guid is passed to the subreport in a parameter and the instructions on how subreport can use a special ImsmaQuery language syntax to limit the subreport data to define those associated with the Report Querymain report's location:</p> location.guid = "$P{parametername}"

<ol start="23"><li>At the Sub-report window, select Data -> Report Query.</li>:The Report query window displays. <li>From location guid field in the Report query window:</li><ol type="a" start="3"><li>Select ImsmaQuery from subreport item table contains the Query language list.</li><li>Enter object.guid = “$P{object_guid}” for of the ImsmaQuery where object location to which the item record is associated. The figure below shows an example of a location and the object type of accident and land that are associated to the IMSMA item on location. Notice that the Main report location_guid value (1234- See Column E 1234) in the Table - Required Parameters for Sub-report below accident and land are identical to determine the ImsmaQuery string for your Sub-reportlocation_guid of the location.</li></ol></ol>

[[Image:iRep10iRep14.png|center|500px|''Figure 10. Define Report Query for Sub-reportlocation_guid example'']]

''Figure 10. Define Report Query for Sub-reportlocation_guid example''

<ol>To create a subreport using the Location relationship:<ol type=# From the main "Location"report, pass the location '''''guid''''' to the subreport in a" start="5"><li>Click parameter (e.g. in a parameter called '''OKItemGUID''').</li>:The Report query window closes# Create a parameter on the subreport with the same name as in #1. <li>Click # In the [[Image:iRepCompilesubreport for the related item (e.g.png]] button to compile a Victim) use the parameter in the sub-reportfollowing ImsmaQuery language syntax location.</li></ol></ol>guid="$P{parametername}"

[[Image:iRepStep05.png|center|500px|This has the effect of limiting the subreport records to '''Step 5 – Add Subreport Parameter only those records that are associated to Main Reportthe location'']]' from the main report.

====Step 5 – Add Subreport Parameter to Main Report=Link relationship subreports===__NOEDITSECTION__In addition to the Location relationship, the main items in {{IMSMANG}} can also be linked with one another during the reconciliation process. This is how, for example, Activities are linked with Land in the {{IMSMANG}} database. Accidents, land, activities, educations, assistances, QMs, and victims 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. This special relationship can also be modeled in iReport using a report and subreport(s). The process for creating a report on an item and its linked items is similar to the process for creating a report on items with a Location relationship. The item in the main report is the primary item for which you would like to find linked items. The subreport would return the records for the particular item that is linked to the primary item. The key difference is the query used in the subreport.

<p>We created a parameter on the sub-report to connect to the Main report in Step 3, now we need to To create a parameter on the Main report as well. Below is subreport using the instructions to create the parameter you need for the Main reportlink relationship:</p><ol type="a"><li>Make sure you are at # From the Main main report by selecting the name of the Main report from , pass the '''Window''guid''''' menu or double-clicking of the Main main report from object to the Files pane.</li><li>Double-click the sub-report box within the Main report.</li>:A window displays four tabs subreport in a parameter (Common, Sub-report, Sub-report (Other), and All)e. <li>Select the Sub-report (Other) tabg. Click pass an accident's ''Add'''.</li><li>From the Add/modify parameter window:</li><ol type="i"><li>Enter guid''“$P{object_guid}”'' for the 'in a parameter called ''Sub-report Parameter Name'ItemGUID'' field where ''object_guid'' is ).# Create a parameter on the subreport with the parameter same name you created as in Step 3 #1.# In the subreport for the Sub-reportrelated item (e.g. See Column B a Victim) use the parameter in the Table – Required Parameters for Sub-report below to determine the parameter namefollowing ImsmaQuery language syntax links.</li><li>In the '''Default Value Expression''' field, enter ''toGuid="$FP{guidparametername}''.</li><li>Click '''OK''' and close the windowthe four tabs.</li></ol></ol>"

[[Image:iRepStep06.png|center|500px|This has the effect of limiting the subreport records to only those records that have a '''link'Step 6 – Repeat Step 2-5 for additional sub-reports.'']]to the guid or object passed from the main report.

===Geospatial relationships=Step 6 – Repeat Step 2-5 ==__NOEDITSECTION__In addition to Location and Link relationships, many objects in IMSMA can store geospatial/geographic information (i.e. point/polygon information). This relationship with the geospatial data can be modeled in a report/subreport relationship for additional sub-reportsany item that has geospatial information associated with it.====To include point/polygon information on an object's main report, follow 3 basic steps:

<p>You can have multiple sub-reports in one Main *Step 1: Create a main report.

Some items are dependent on * In the existence of another item. This type of relationship is referred to as a direct relationship. For example, an accident, hazard, hazard reduction, MRE, QC, or victim has a direct relationship to Geopoint subreport use the location to which it is associated. The accident, hazard, hazard reduction, MRE, QC, or victim cannot exist unless it is associated with a location.

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, hazards, hazard reductions, MREs, and QCs may be related to one another via ''links''. For example, a victim may be associated to an accident in a particular hazard. If these relationships are known, IMSMA users may define these links while reconciling the field report. [[Image:iRep21.png|center|500px|''Figure 21victim. Direct relationships vs. Links'']]<div alignguid="center">''Figure 21. Direct relationships vs. Links''</div> The process for creating a report on an item and its linked items is similar to the process for creating a report on items with a direct 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 hazards and the accidents and hazard reductions that are linked to those hazards, you would create the main report on hazard. This report would then contain a sub-report to list linked accidents, and another sub-report to list linked hazard reductions.  ====Part 1.
