Hi all
I have a flat file as a data source with this description
year,gross sales,net sales,product
What we want to do to have a parameter that prompts for Start year and End year, I know we have filters, but what we want is a parameter that is entered by the end user.
Birt 3.7
Thanks in advance

Move this:
var totalgross=0;
to beforeFactory. initialize is fired many times in the viewer.

Put a filter on the data set that references the report parameter.

I got it working, I will post later how I did it, however I ran into a different problem now
I have aggregations columns that are calculated onCreate for each field
totalgross += parseFloat(this.getValue());
totalgross was initialized on initialize of the report
var totalgross=0;
in the aggregation column I have this script on render time
this.setDisplayValue(totalgross);
So everything is working as expected, when I preview the report I see the totals of the aggregation columns, however when I run the report using the viewer it does not print the total of the aggregation columns( it shows 0), even weird , if I run the report directly to a PDF, excel or html I can see the totals.
What is wrong with the viewer?
Again I'm using 3.7
Thanks
Ok, I got it working I just change the calculation fields from onCreate to onRender
now it is working.
Thanks
