Question

I have a report that uses a query of input controls. It is a drop-down menu of specific ID’s (ie. 28, 13, 30…) I want to know if it is possible to have my report go through each of these parameters and populate the report one page at a time for each of them.

Here is an example of the different parameters I want the report to loop through:

Answer 1

Do you want to create a page for all Partner IDs? Or just for the Partner IDs that a user selects? Either is possible.

Using all Partner IDs is probably easier. Modify your report query which probably has something like WHERE partner_id = $P{partnerID}. Remove the where clause. Add grouping and sorting to the query to group on partner id. Each group can start on a new page. And now you don’t need a parameter at all.

If you want the user to select the Partner IDs, then you need to use a multi-select input control rather than the single-select input control you’re using now. Update your query to use something like this: WHERE $X{IN, partner_id, partnerID}. Add grouping and sorting as above.
