Hello,
customer needs to upgrade their Crystal Report from V8 to IFS Cloud Report Designer (or Report Studio, if possible).

Document is automotive standard VDA4939, which has 3 different sections but has to be one PDF file with proper pagination numbers. First section is portrait, second landscape and third and fourth portrait.

We have no idea how to achieve this with Report Designer. But it is required by WV Group.

Hi,

Thank you for highlighting this concern. We are also exploring the feasibility of developing complex reports using IFS Report Designer/Studio, especially in light of the upcoming phase-out of Crystal Reports support.

 

Thanks.


In the original product of Report studio from where it based on, it is possible to insert a Subreport at the report header or report footer.

Sub report can have a different page orientation and could solve the isseue.

@IFS RD Product Management Can R&D include the possibility to add Subreport to report studio ?

(Of course using the same datasource)
