Zucker Reports Binding

[kkuhl]

Hey everyone.

I have been attempting to bind one of my reports to the Contacts module with no success. To be frank, I dont think there's a whole lot of detail in the documentation for this extension (sorry go mobile ) and I'm not too sure if I'm looking in the wrong place for the link to execute the report. As far as I know it should be on the shortcuts menu when in the detail view of the Contacts area (if bound there); at least this is what the documentation says.

Any of you who know much about Zucker Reports have insight?

Thanks!

Hi,

I was wondering if you were able to figure out the module binding and if so how did you accomplish it? I'm having probably the same issue trying to bind a query to our Leads module with no success. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry i cant answer this. In 4.5.1 with ZuckerReports 1.7 and 1.8 its working.

What it the process you go through on your versions? I'm wondering if I'm just missing something small causing my issue.

Her what i did for Contact binding
1. Create a report with one parameter CONTACT_ID (in iReport would look like $P{CONTACT_ID}
2. Uplaod it to ZuckerReports
3. Create a report parameter in Zuckerreports with default name CONTACT_ID
4. Create Module binding with this parameter

Thanks for you info. I finally got it. It was something small as I was trying to bind the query to the module. Once I associated my mail merge document it showed up properly in the module and I got the merge to work correctly.
