Report Designer Microsoft Office look & feel

Overview

The object list determines the structure of your report. You can change the order with point-and-click simplicity.

Dynamic Properties

You can use formulas to make any property conditional on data used to generate the report at runtime – i.e. this data determines properties such as language, position and formatting.

2

1

Extensible

Add your own objects, functions and properties to the ribbon to give your users the right options at the right time. That makes the design process quick, easy and convenient.

Start Immediately

No Additional Cost

Available variables and fields are dis-played at all times, making it simple even for beginners to create reports. You and your customers benefit from convenient drag-and-drop design capabilities.

You are free to distribute the Designer without paying additional fees. Enrich your application with cutting-edge reporting capabilities for any type of output, with minimal coding.

Quick Testing

In the preview, you generate your reports with real data. With a single click you can check the layout or view a fully populated report within the Designer ad-hoc while you work.

Barcodes Included

More than 50 barcode types are included free of charge, and no special barcode fonts are needed.

Crosstabs are a powerful tool for analysis of complex, multi-dimensional data. Gantt charts depict time/activity relationships. Examples include vacation schedules and machine maintenance plans.

List & Label offers a huge array of chart types – from bar and pie charts to geovisualization with shapefiles. That means your users will always find a solution to their specific data-visualization needs. Gauges show actual values in relation to minimum, maximum and optimum values.

List & Label lets you create more complex and flexible

reports than any other reporting tool.

Printing and Output Diverse formats and options

Reports can not only be printed and previewed. They can also be directly exported in the required format. As a result, time-consuming conversion is not necessary.

In the preview, your users can click through the links until they reach the level of detail they need. This ensures they quickly find the information they are looking for – however extensive and complex the data.

Your users can set report-parameter values in the preview. They can also change a sort order simply by clicking on a column header, and show or hide entire regions of a report. Additional data can be entered via formula elements. As the preview supports animated objects, there is no need to use separate presentation software to view and develop them.

Report Server Out-of-the-box server-based reporting

The Report Server saves you significant development time. It gives you platform-independent server-based reporting and requires very little programming.

You can install and start using the Report Server right away; your application accesses it directly, and adding fully confi-gured data sources and reports is simple.

If you purchase the Enterprise edition, you may distribute the Report Server with your List & Label application to your customers free of charge.

You can launch server-based solutions – supporting all leading browsers on any device – much faster.

Goran Vogt, Valser Service

The completely browser-based Ad-hoc Designer is intuitive and offers many more basic capabilities. Very little training is required to design most types of reports. And if your users want a wider range of features, they can simply switch to the locally installed Windows-based Web Designer. Power users looking to create so-phisticated, special-purpose reports will find everything they need in the Web Designer: It offers virtually the same functional scope as the desktop version.

The HTML5 Viewer displays reports in a browser. Your users can show or hide tables, sort data according to their needs, apply filters via report parameters, and drill down to a greater level of detail. In other words, the viewer offers them nearly all of the regular preview’s features.

Whether you want to add reporting features to an existing application or create a new one, List & Label lets you access your data structures directly – with cutting-edge .NET data binding. This is an extremely fast way to enhance your products with professional-quality reporting.

We offer diverse data providers for all popular data sources. And you can also create your own providers quickly and easily. This allows you to bind List & Label to any data source or to take into account the rights management of your application, for example.

Document Object Model for Projects Quick and individual

You can dynamically generate your own projects, plus project wizards that offer users preconfigured objects in the designer, or a feature-reduced designer, for their tasks. This helps your customers to work productively from the start and enables you to respond flexibly to user-specific requirements.

The Enterprise edition includes long-term support: we provide support for even-numbered versions for approximately two years, until a new LTS version (24, 26, 28, etc.) is released. This extends the availability of comprehensive support for developers whose products have longer release cycles.

List & Label includes the professional, functionality-rich Debwin tool for debugging. For effective analysis, it is even possible, in .NET, to use your application’s logging feature via a special interface. Alterna-tively, you can use tried and trusted logging frameworks, such as NLog or log4net.
