Special Functions For Reports

Here is list of the special functions that can be called from the reports. These functions compute the data on the server side and return them into the returnvalue of the report. The functions usually stay in: ICT\Petra\Server\lib\MReporting\MModule\Function.cs. They are called from the report xml file like this:

<calculation id="DummyFunction" returns="PartnerNameAndKey" returnsFormat="text">
  <query>
    <queryDetail>
      <value text="NO-SQL"/>
      <value function="assign(PartnerNameAndKey, {PartnerKey})"/>
      <value function="assign(Amount, add({Amount1},{Amount2}))"/>
    </queryDetail>
  </query>
</calculation>

The assign function is of special use because it assigns a value of another function to a parameter. So it is used in almost every call.
