Runtime Connection for Studio Reports Crosstabs

Runtime Connection for Studio Reports Crosstabs

Applies to: Kyvos Reporting


Use the Runtime properties to select the database connection that should be used to populate data in the Crosstab report during execution. In the Web Studio, these properties are available in the Property pane on the right.

While the Data Source tab defines the query or object used to design the crosstab layout, the Runtime properties ensure that the report can retrieve data from a valid, named connection on the report server. This is important because reports designed in Kyvos Reporting Studio can be deployed and run on different machines where the report engine is installed.

Note

The runtime connection must match a configured database connection on the Kyvos Reporting Report Server.

Use Named

Select a specific named connection from the configured list. This overrides both the parent and default connections. Use this when you want to ensure the report fetches data from a specific database.
