Christian Carlow commented on OFBIZ-6427: ----------------------------------------- This patch probably needs to be updated so that the new sort/group parameters passed to macros at htmlFormMacroLibrary.ftl are set to default values as was done for <hyperlink> id field of OFBIZ-6403, otherwise FTL errors clutter pages. > Implement FindService record grouping/summarization functionality > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-6427 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-6427 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: framework > Affects Versions: Trunk > Reporter: Christian Carlow > Attachments: OFBIZ-6427-testforms.txt, OFBIZ-6427.patch, > Screenshot1.png, Screenshot2.png, Screenshot3.png > > > Just as sortSeq and sortDir will be added to find fields like ignoreCase is > available, groupBy check box would also enhance user query capabilities. > FindService would have to be extended to process the list and create > group/summary records. > For example, if a grid/form lists customer orders and the user wants to > determine the total quantity and price of products ordered between a date > range, then check marking the groupBy for productId would insert a grouping > record before the details containing totals. > This issue is primarily meant to handle reports for which pagination isn't > used because all records are displayed. For these reports queries, group > totals can simply be calculated by looping each detail record. But if > pagination is used, the method of calculating totals for grouping records > becomes more complicated because if detail records exist outside of the > current page but are part of a group being summarized then they will be > excluded from the group total unless implemented some other way. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
