Hello,

I have a problem when creating some reports. I created all the reports' elements in the libraries and added them to the reports.
When I used these report element to the reports, the aggregation could not be found when I use the run+render mode.

My birt version is 2.6.2. and the runtime version is the same.
Here is the example batch that I used to run the report and you can use the report in the attachement to test it.
Thanks in advance for the help. I appreciate very much all your advises.

Set BIRT_HOME=C:\birt-runtime-2_6_2\

CMD /C %BIRT_HOME%\ReportEngine\genReport.bat -m run -o %Location%\testgroup.rptdocument %Location%\testgroup.rptdesign

CMD /C %BIRT_HOME%\ReportEngine\genReport.bat -m render -o %Location%\testgroup.pdf -f PDF %Location%\testgroup.rptdocument

Hi Jason,

I have tried the tips that you put in the thread. But it did not work either.

The fact is that when I use the mode Run+Render, it can not find the group which is used by the aggregation element. But if I ran the report with RunAndRender mode, it worked well.

I found a workaround that is to edit the group in the rptdisign by right click-->edit.
And just click 'OK' without any further change.
With this way, the report works well. But imagine that we have a lot of the same report elements, if we use this workaround, that will be a disaster...

Thanks for the help.

I have done some tests again.
If you take the example that I attached here and do the modification.
1-Create the table directly and do not add it in the cell of the Grid.
2-Add this table to the report
3-Run the report with Run+Render mode

In this way, the report works well.
So it means the tables which contain the aggregation of the group can not be added into the grid for the Run+Render mode...
