Report Features

Supply Data
	DevExpress Reporting allows you to use various data source types (SQL databases, Entity Framework data sources, custom objects, or Excel files) to fetch data to your reports. You can bind report elements to individual data source fields or create binding expressions of any complexity. These expressions can include multiple data source fields and functions.
Report Controls
	DevExpress Reporting includes controls like charts, cross tabs, gauges, bar codes, for visualizing data.
Shape Report Data
	DevExpress Reporting offers the following data shaping features: Calculate Summaries Allows you to count summaries across report data fields. Group and Sort Data Enables you to group data records and calculate summaries across groups. Filter Data Allows you to display only a subset of data in your reports. Format Data Allows you to format data values in report controls.
Use Report Parameters
	Use report parameters to filter data in a previewed document. Multi-value and cascading parameters are supported. You can embed query parameters into an SQL string to filter data at the data source level.
Interactive Print Preview
	Allow users to customize report content in Print Preview: Customize field values directly in a previewed document before they print or export it. You can use standard editors or implement custom editors, validate the user input, and format edited values. Add interactive sorting to enable end users to toggle between ascending and descending order for report groups or for rows in a detail table. Create drill-down reports that allow end users to control which report sections are displayed.
Report Navigation

Style and Appearance Settings
