- Custom data processing extension: OData, SASS, WebApi, MySQL, SQLite, PostgreSQL, etc.


Create data model with query builder
Data query preparation can take most of your time, but with Report Designer, data query generation can be done with a few clicks. Query builder provides a convenient user interface that helps both technical and nontechnical users to create and view relationships between tables.
Report items

- Custom report items.


Rich user interface
Provides rich user-friendly interface to easily transform your data into beautiful reports, using the configuration options such as property panel, data configuration panel and image manager.
Report parameters
Supports creating report parameters manually or based on a data set query. Parameters are used to interactively provide user inputs at run-time to vary report presentation based on it. Parameters can also be used in expressions to control report data.

Data set query parameters
Allows creating an embedded or a shared dataset with parameter to filter or limit data. A data set can contain user-defined parameters for internal calculations or report parameter to get run-time inputs from users.

Cascading parameter
Users can add cascading parameters to the report to allow one parameter that limits the values for the next parameter. It greatly reduces the number of choices to a manageable number.
Filter, group and sort data
JavaScript Report Designer support to add filtering, grouping and sorting for data region items such as grids, pivot grids and for data sets. It organizes the data values of the data region report items.

Grouping
User can add grouping to display data in a hierarchy view by organizing nested, adjacent, and recursive hierarchy groups. You can use a dataset field, expression or other values to group data.

Sorting
Supports adding sort expressions to chart category and series groups and pivot table groups. It controls the order in which data is displayed in a data region item of the report (either as ascending or descending).

Filtering
Provides support to add filters to an embedded data set or shared data set, data regions, and data region groups, including detail groups. The filter equation includes a dataset field or expression, an operator, and a value used to compare.
Drill through and hyperlink
Allows users to create a report with SQL RDL reporting’s extremely powerful interactive features like drill through and hyperlink to display data and information in detail.

Drill through reports
An action property is available to specify the drill through report path. It allows end users to click on a data value in the report to view related data information in the child report. A separate child report can have detail/summary data. Also, users can add parameters to filter data based on user selection.

Hyperlink
Provides property options to set hyperlink actions to text boxes, images, charts, and gauges. The hyperlink can contain data field, static or dynamic URL value expression.
