\n Running a report to a context produces multiple reports \u2013 one for each possible code for that context. \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n create one large report containing multiple versions of the report, one for each context\n <\/li>
\n create a separate PDF for each iteration of the context\n <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\n The examples use the Crocodile Rock Cafe survey that is supplied with Snap.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Creating the Context Data Set<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n Open the Crocodile Rock Cafe survey supplied with Snap.\n<\/li>
\n Set up your Context Data Set. For this example, it uses the single variable Q0<\/strong> (the location question) as the context. This enables you to automatically create a report for each possible value of location.\n<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n Click \n \n to save the context.\n<\/li>
\n Before using the context check that the global context value is not set.\n<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Running the report with sub reports<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n Click \n \n to open the Reports <\/strong>window.\n<\/li>
\n Double click the report to open it. In this example, the Summary <\/strong>report is used.\n<\/li>
\n In Filter<\/strong>, enter the context filter, in this case Q0=Q0@context<\/strong>.\n<\/li>
\n In Context, enter the context data set, in this case CX1<\/strong>\n<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n Click \n \n to run the report. This produces a single report containing one sub-report for each possible value of the context.\n<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Running the report to create multiple PDFs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n In the Report Summary, click New Instruction<\/strong> \n \n to add a new Page Layout<\/strong> instruction. Alternatively, you can edit an existing Page Layout if there is one at the beginning of the Report.\n<\/li>
\n Select Start New Page<\/strong>.\n<\/li>
\n Select Restart Page numbers<\/strong> to ensure that each document starts on page 1.\n<\/li>
\n Select Start New Document<\/strong>. This places the report in a new file, so each time it creates the report for the different context, it will start a new file.\n<\/li>
\n Click Insert<\/strong> and select Variable field<\/strong> from the list.\n<\/li>
\n Select the context variable, for example Q0,<\/strong> as the Variable <\/strong>and Context <\/strong>as the Aspect<\/strong>. This will use the label of the Location <\/strong>for the current context as the filename, so the report for Boston will be given a filename of Boston, MA.pdf<\/strong>.\n<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n Click OK<\/strong> to insert the variable.\n<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n Click OK<\/strong> to save the report instruction.\n<\/li>
\n Click \n \n to run the report then click OK<\/strong> on the Report Execution<\/strong> dialog. Depending on the PDF driver that you are using, and the way it has been set up, it will either automatically save or ask you to save the files. \n<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
