A wide range of band types allows creating any kind of report: list, master-detail, group, multi-column, master-detail-detail and many more.
-
Wide range of available report objects : text, picture, line, shape, barcode, matrix, table, checkbox.
-
Reports can consist of several design pages, which allows reports to contain a cover, the data and a back cover, all in one file.
-
The Table object allows building a tabular report with variable number of rows and/or columns, just like in MS Excel. Aggregate functions are also available.
-
Powerful, fully configurable Matrix object that can be used to print pivot tables.
