Look-Up Parameter Editors

We have simplified the process of creating report parameters.

With this release, you can easily provide a list of static values for parameters without writing any code.

Once a report is previewed, end-users can select specified values from a look-up editor.

Report Gallery Enhancements

We have improved the Report Gallery with the following new functionality.

• The ability to create custom report galleries.

  You can create custom template galleries for your business, similar to that available at http://templates.devexpress.com/.

  Unlike the report gallery from DevExpress (available only at design time), your custom gallery will be available in the End-User Designer so that your end-users can upload a pre-defined template as business needs dictate.

  

• The binding updater

  After your end-user has selected and uploaded a template from your custom report gallery, the report's data bindings can be easily updated by using the binding updater provided for the End-User Designer.

  Using a couple of mouse-clicks, an end-user can substitute all data bindings with the ones available in his/her actual data source.
