Question

I have a view that must render two reports.

My action:

public ActionResult TradeUKKPIShowData(SundaysInMonthViewModel model) //show actual data in the view
{
  var tradesmenReportData = _reportingService.GetTradeUKKPITradesmen(model.SelectedSunday);
  var jobSortedReportData = _reportingService.GetTradeUKKPIJobSorted(model.SelectedSunday);
  ViewBag.jobSortedReportDate = model.SelectedSunday;
  ViewBag.addJobSortedModel = jobSortedReportData;
  return View(tradesmenReportData);
}

My first problem is with the first two lines of the action above. What must I pass here?
The compile errors I get for those lines:

‘TradeUK.Services.IReportingService.GetTradeUKKPITradesmen(TradeUK.Entities.Reporting.KPIResults)’ has some invalid arguments

All the stored procedure for the report needs is the date/sunday that was selected

My SundaysInMonthViewModel:

 namespace TradeUK.Admin.Web.ViewModels
 {
    public class SundaysInMonthViewModel
    {
       public IEnumerable<SelectListItem> AllSundays { set; get; }
       public string SelectedSunday { set; get; }
    }
 }

Here IReportingServices.cs:

IEnumerable<KPIResults> GetTradeUKKPITradesmen(DateTime date);
IEnumerable<KPIResults> GetTradeUKKPIJobSorted(DateTime date);

and the actual methods for above:

 public IEnumerable<KPIResults> GetTradeUKKPITradesmen(DateTime date)
 {
 }


 public IEnumerable<KPIResults> GetTradeUKKPIJobSorted(DateTime date)
 {
 }

KPIResults:

namespace TradeUK.Entities.Reporting
{
 public class KPIResults
  {
   public virtual string Title { get; set; }
   public virtual int Total { get; set; }
   public virtual int Week6 { get; set; }
   public virtual int Week5 { get; set; }
   public virtual int Week4 { get; set; }
   public virtual int Week3 { get; set; }
   public virtual int Week2 { get; set; }
   public virtual int Week1 { get; set; }
  }
 }

The other issue is on the return(View(tradesmenReportData,jobSortedReportData)
Can I do this? In the actual view I have to foreach loops to show the to sets of report data.

Please help?
Thanks

Answer 1

You can pass first model normally and second in ViewBag and then

@model YourFirstModelClass

@{
    YourSecondModelClass model2 = ViewBag.YourSecondModel;
}

And and with it you have effect which you want.

So when you do not use Razor you can add primary strongly typed model like this:

<%@ Inherits="System.Web.Mvc.ViewPage<PrimaryModelClass>" %>

and second in ViewData similary to ViewBag
