Report controls interact with each other through rules. When you bind properties between different controls, you can use the data to populate properties or set values.

  • When you use rules, you can use the control properties in the context browser for mapping to other controls. This means that you can drag the property from the control to another control’s properties or control value.
  • You can, for example, use the User Performance Grid to populate the Workflow Instances Grid. This allows you to click a record in the User Performance Grid, the Workflow Instances Grid is updated to show workflow instances where the user has participated. Create and configure the following rule for this scenario:

    Map the User Performance Grid value to the Users filter of the Workflow Instances Grid.

Security on the Report controls ensures that the data is seen by only those who are authorized. Permissions are based on the process rights assigned to the process in Management Site:

  • Admin or View permissions: You can access the Report controls.
  • View Participate permissions: You can view the Report controls from the point where you are part of the workflow.
  • When you click on a record in the list of the control, the value of the grid is the selected instance which you can use to bind properties or configure rules
  • A user's performance is measured on completion of an activity. The control is populated with data when a user has completed the activity and does not display any other status.
  • When you use custom themes, be sure to specify the CSS classes for the elements
  • You cannot change grid control columns as they are predefined. You can, however, deselect columns in the control's properties so that they don't display
  • You can use reporting controls to access the data of workflows created in any workflow designer, including the K2 Designer and K2 Designer for SharePoint
