Re: Report from UDT ? 

Not at the moment, but the next version of the Reports Module (v5.0) will include a pluggable Data Source system and one of the Data Sources we are developing will retrieve data from a UDT Module. You could use the current version, but it would take some complicated SQL, you'd have to talk to someone with more SQL experience to figure that out :)

Re: Report from UDT ? 

Can you please tell me what do you expect from using Reports? What is missing in UDT that you need going that way?

form and List will be the successor of the User Defined Table module.

Do you want to import external data to form and List /User Defined Table?

Re: Report from UDT ? 

Hi,

First of all, thanks for replying.

In the last 2 years I used DNN with a custom module for the addmission in our university. The modules are created so that each faculty can choose to display and fill in from a number of pre-defined fields (name, options, address, various marks and means needed for calculating the admission mean etc.).This works just fine and because the data from the application is "standard" (a fixed and known number of fields) created a report generator for outputing the data in Text and PDF. The data is extracted from a view that holds all the necessary fields/data.

But...various faculties and departments require "other" fields used for creating statistics. These fields would be filled in for the candidates of one faculty, while other faculties, may require completly different fields for their candidates.

So, our requirements are to connect our view/data with a UDT module via SQL for extracting the custom, additional fields and data required for the application. Also, the data from the UDT would need to be filtered (via sql?) or a Report module.

Thanks,

Catalin

Re: Report from UDT ? 

An interesting possibility of using Reports over UDT would be to be able to display the same datatable using different views on the same page. This is something not currently possible with UDT as DNN will not allow duplicating a module on the same page.

Regards,
