Jasper Reports: Problem with Cross Tab multiple columns

[Andy Iyer]

Hello,

I think the way that cross tab works with multi-columns is: It builds like a hierarchy of columns. I want a little different implementation. Lets say for example I have an ArrayList of all the accounts in a bank. Each Account object has the following fields: holderName(String), amountInSavingsAccount (int) and amountInCheckingAccoun(int). I would want to loop through list using a Crosstab in the following fashion:



____________________________________________________________________________________

Amount in Checking Account Amount in Savings Account

____________________________________________________________________________________

John Doe 10 20

Java Doe 10 20

Jane Doe 10 20

Jack Doe 10 20

____________________________________________________________________________________

Total 50 100

____________________________________________________________________________________



The problem is, with multiple unrelated columns in an object, I'm not sure how to configure them in a crosstab in iReports. Any suggestions/inputs?



Thanks in anticipation,

Andy.
