Conditional Formatting

You can easily conditionally format your reports on Azure using expressions. Expressions are like simple scripts that you can use to calculate values, concatenate strings, or set a condition under which a style is applied.

View Demo

Drill-Down Reporting

Drill down functionality allows you to present an overview of your report while giving your users the ability to drill down into the more granular levels of data by clicking '+' icon. Drill Down reporting is as simple as setting the 'Toggle' property in ActiveReports.

View Demo

Drill-Through Reporting

The Drill-Through feature is a way of presenting the same data, or a subset of data, in a different layout and with different controls.



View Demo

Sparklines

Embed Sparklines in your ASP.NET reports to show data trends in a simple chart. Sparklines can show data as Line, Column, Whisker, Area, or Stacked Bar type.

View Demo

Layers

Group controls within layers to ensure WYSIWYG output or to make minor layout changes at runtime.


View Demo

Subreports

Re-use your reports, or use data from multiple disparate data sources in a single report with subreports. Changes in subreport will automatically show everywhere it is used.

View Demo

Sorting

Sorting is a basic interactive feature most useful with tabular reports. Setting an interactive sort is as easy as setting the 'Sort Expression' property in ActiveReports.


View Demo

Grouping

Table, Tablix, Charts, and other data regions support grouping. Create from simple tabular report to a complex multi-level grouped, sorted, and drill-down reports. Setting grouping, sorting, and drill-down is done by setting a single property.

View Demo

Dynamic Reporting

Use expressions and custom code to control report behavior at runtime. Use events to bind reports to data dynamically.



View Demo

Parameterized Reports

Another way to create dynamic reports is to use Parameters. Parameters are prompts to take user input and filter the data to the desired volume.



View Demo

Barcodes

ActiveReports has over 120 barcode symbologies available to use in your ASP.NET projects.

Charts

ActiveReports offers a total of 85 chart types across different chart technologies. Some of those charts include Area Charts, Bar Charts, Bubble Charts, Column Charts, Financial Charts, Line Charts, Pie Charts, Scatter Charts, and other complex charts.

WYSIWYG Report Layout

With defined boundaries for each report item, Page reports generate a pixel perfect, WYSIWYG, report.

Table of Contents

Display an organized hierarchy of report heading levels and labels, along with their page numbers, in the body of your report.

Embed HTML text in your ASP.NET reports using ActiveReports FormattedText control. As a versatile reporting control, FormattedText is frequently used to create mail merge reports.

View Demo

Bullets

Bullet graphs, or bullet charts, are a great way to show progress towards a certain goal and serve as an alternative to dashboard gauges and meters.
