S : subreport

subreport

An item using data from a different data set or data source from other items in a report design. An outer report can contain multiple subreports, also called nested reports. In this case, the subreports typically use data values from the outer report to filter data rows for display. Alternatively, multiple independent subreports exist at the same level in the report design. In an Actuate Basic report design, a subreport is a report section placed inside another section. The relevant Actuate Foundation Class is AcReportSection. For example, Figure G-127 shows subreports in a parallel section.
