active reports navigation link

[ddma]

I have active reports with 3 pages in it.
Can I create navigation links in it, so user can press link or text and go from page 1 to page 2 OR from page 1 to page 3?

Can you pls help?

Hi,

An Active Report will only ever render the first page in your report specification, so multiple pages is not the way to go here. Instead, look at using a Deck - you can define how many cards the Deck has, what appears on each card, and how to navigate from one card to another. In this respect it behaves as though your report has multiple pages, when in fact it's all on the same page.

Cheers!

Thank you, I looked into deck functionality.

Im looking for solution in active report, where user on a main page could have 5-6 links to different active report pages and go to it pressing that link and then back to main page if needed.

Im thining of hyperlink functionality, maybe there are other options Im missing?

Thanks

Hi,

Each "page" in this scenario would be a different card in a deck. Your deck can also have a Default Card which is displayed when the variable driving the deck is empty. So in this case the default card would have a control on it to set the active report variable which triggers a jump to the relevant card (which behaves like moving to another page as far as the user is concerned). From there, you could have similar controls on each card to either set the variable differently or to unset it - meaning you can jump to other cards ("pages") or back to the initial Default Card.

As I mentioned before, stay away from defining multiple pages in an Active Report - it will only ever render the first one.

Cheers!
