Report Book
A Report Book is made of several existing reports, and can eventually include ther Report Books if they are defined with the option "Fusion mode".
In fact, when creating a new report book, the Fusion Mode is activated by default.
The Fusion mode means that all the reports included in the Report Book will be printed together, merging the page number as if it was only a single report.
If a Report Book contains for example 3 reports, the report A having 3 pages, the report B having 2 pages and the report C having 4 pages, the result will be edited with page number beginning at 1 / 9 and finishing with 9 / 9.
If the Fusion mode is disable, in the command <View> <Fusion mode>, then the reports will be run in an independent way, without merging the page number. Each report will be printed according to its own number of pages and own Page Setup (Portrait or Landscape). In the previous example we would get the report A having the page number 1/3 to 3/3 then the report B with pages 1 / 2 and 2/2 et then the report C having pages 1 / 4 to 4 / 4.
A Report Book can then be printed to printer, exported to HTML or PDF locally or to ClicknDECiDE Web Server. A Report Book cannot be exported to a ClicknDECiDE Builder output format.
Once a Report Book has been created, make a right mouse click to:
Insert a new report in the Report Book. Select the required report in the proposed list.
