Title: Bursting Issue
Post by: Richard1977 on 05 Feb 2016 06:00:41 AM
Good Morning
I have created a report in report studio 10.1.1, which is basically a monthly accounts summary for various departments. My intention is to burst this out to the budget holders of each department, as there are over 200 recipients. The report contains 5 list reports and 1 graph, but when I have tested the burst the lists split correctly as per the burst but each copy of the report contains the full graph. I considered setting up report views and a separate one for each but given the number of recipients, that would be time consuming and maintenance heavy
I have encountered similar issues before when bursting reports containing crosstabs but was able to resolve that by embedding the crosstab within a list and then bursting the list. Is anyone aware of a similar technique for bursting graphs or isn't it possible?

Many thanks in advance for any help
Richard

You can embed the chart in a list also. Alternatively you can associate your burst query to the page and then master-detail all the objects on the page to that query.
