Pass #2

Seagate Crystal Reports enters the second pass through the data to format pages. The pages are formatted on demand. This means that Seagate Crystal Reports will not format a page until it is requested by the user, or it is required for the total page count in Pass #3.

During page formatting, Seagate Crystal Reports does the following:

• Group selection formula
• Running totals
• Calculation of formulas marked "WhilePrinting Records"

  These are formulas that contain references to subtotals or summary information, also known as "PrintTime" formulas. This evaluation time is known as "WhilePrinting Records".

• Charts and maps
• Subreports
• Generate Pages on Demand.

Note:    Subtotals, grand totals, and summaries may be incorrect if the report has a group selection formula. This occurs because the grand totals and summaries are calculated during Pass #1, but the group selection formula filters the data again in Pass #2. Running total fields can be used instead of summaries to total data in reports with a group selection formula.
