12 Jun 202324 minutes to read
The summary rows visibility can be controlled by theshow-summary property and it can be added to Grid by using the e-summary-rows array property. The following code example describes the above behavior.
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="Sum">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Sum" format="{0:C}" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID" width="80" text-align="Right"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID" header-text="Employee ID" text-align="Right" width="80"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCity" header-text="Ship City" width="90"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCountry" header-text="Ship Country" width="100"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" header-text="Freight" text-align="Right" width="80" format="{0:C}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}
Supported aggregates
Following are the supported list of aggregates.
- Sum
- Average
- Maximum
- Minimum
- False Count
- True Count
Sum, average, maximum and minimum
Summaries with Sum,Average,Maximum and Minimum aggregate can be defined by using summary-type in e-summary-columns collections. These aggregate are used in the Number column.
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="Sum">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Sum" format="{0:C}" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />

{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}
True and False count
Summaries with true and false count aggregate can be defined by using summary-type,e-summary-columns collections. true and false count aggregates are used for Boolean columns.
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="False Count">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Falsecount" display-column="Verified" datamember="Verified"/>
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
<e-summary-row title="True Count">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Truecount" display-column="Verified" datamember="Verified"/>
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID" width="80" text-align="Right"></e-column>

</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}
Custom summary
Custom summary can be used to create summary values based on your required custom logic and calculations. To enable custom summary, summary-type should be Custom and the custom-summary-value property need to define as function. In this property the custom-summary-value function, you need to use grid instance to access model.dataSource and model.currentViewData. After the custom calculation, the returned value will be displayed in corresponding summary cell.
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="Currency">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Custom" custom-summary-value="currency" format="{0:C2}" display-column="Freight"/>
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID" width="70" text-align="Right"></e-column>
<e-column field="CustomerID" header-text="Customer ID" text-align="Right" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCity" header-text="Ship City" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID" header-text="Employee ID" text-align="Right" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" header-text="Freight" text-align="Right" width="70" format="{0:C}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}<script type="text/javascript">
function currency() {
//to get grid instance
var gridObj = $("#Grid").ejGrid("instance");
//ej.sum is aggregate to add data of freight from datasource
return ej.sum(gridObj.model.dataSource, "Freight");
}
</script>
Group summary
Group summary is used to summarize values of a particular column based on group and it shows at bottom of each Group. To enable Group Summary for particular Group, you need to define the show-total-summary as false.
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" allow-grouping="true" group-settings ="@(new GroupSettings { GroupedColumns= new List<string>() { "CustomerID"}})" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row show-total-summary="false" >
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Sum" prefix=@("Sum=") format="{0:C2}" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID" width="70" text-align="Right"></e-column>
<e-column field="CustomerID" header-text="Customer ID" text-align="Right" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCity" header-text="Ship City" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID" header-text="Employee ID" text-align="Right" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" header-text="Freight" text-align="Right" width="70" format="{0:C2}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}
WARNING
Minimum one column should be grouped to show the summary details.
Group caption summary
To show summaries in each Group’s caption row, particular summary row should have the show-total-summary as false and show-caption-summary as true.
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" allow-grouping="true" group-settings ="@(new GroupSettings { GroupedColumns= new List<string>() { "EmployeeID"}})" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row show-total-summary="false" show-caption-summary="true" >
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Sum" prefix=@("Sum=") format="{0:C2}" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID" width="70" text-align="Right"></e-column>
<e-column field="CustomerID" header-text="Customer ID" text-align="Right" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCity" header-text="Ship City" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID" header-text="Employee ID" text-align="Right" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" header-text="Freight" text-align="Right" width="70" format="{0:C2}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}
WARNING
Minimum one column should be grouped to show summary details.
Format
To format Summary values, the format property needs to be assigned in e-summary-columns collection object. To know more about formatting options. Please refer to globalize.js
<ej-grid id="FlatGrid" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true" datasource="ViewBag.DataSource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="Sum">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Sum" format="{0:C}" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID" width="70" text-align="Right"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID" header-text="Employee ID" text-align="Right" width="80"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCity" header-text="Ship City" width="70"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCountry" header-text="Ship Country" width="100"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" header-text="Freight" text-align="Right" width="70" format="{0:C}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.DataSource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}
Summary template
Using the template property of e-summary-columns you can render any type of JsRender templates or customizing the summary value.
The following code example describes the previous behavior.
<ej-grid id="Summary" show-summary="true" datasource="ViewBag.datasource">
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="Average">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Average" format="{0:C2}" template="#templateData" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" format="{0:C2}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MVCSampleBrowser.Controllers
{
public class GridController : Controller
{
public IActionResult GridFeatures()
{
var DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().OrdersViews.ToList();
ViewBag.datasource = DataSource;
return View();
}
}
}<script id="templateData" type="text/x-jsrender">
Freight has Average of {{:summaryValue"}} in dollars
</script>The following output is displayed as a result of the previous code example.
Handling aggregation in server-side
The Aggregation at server-side is handled by using the aggregate key. While using remote data, summary row must be handled by returning summary column datasource into the aggregate property of result object.
The following code example describes the previous behavior.
<ej-grid id="Summary" allow-paging="true" show-summary="true">
<e-datamanager url="/Grid/DataSource" adaptor="UrlAdaptor"></e-datamanager>
<e-summary-rows>
<e-summary-row title="Sum">
<e-summary-columns>
<e-summary-column summary-type="Sum" format="{0:C2}" display-column="Freight" datamember="Freight" />
</e-summary-columns>
</e-summary-row>
</e-summary-rows>
<e-columns>
<e-column field="OrderID" header-text="Order ID"></e-column>
<e-column field="EmployeeID" header-text="Employee ID"></e-column>
<e-column field="Freight" header-text="Freight" format="{0:C2}"></e-column>
<e-column field="ShipCity" header-text="Ship City" format="{0:C2}"></e-column>
</e-columns>
</ej-grid>namespace MvcApplication4.Controllers
{
public class GridController: Controller
{
public ActionResult GridFeatures()
{
return View();
}
public ActionResult DataSource(DataManager dataManager)
{
IEnumerable DataSource = OrderRepository.GetAllRecords();
DataResult result = new DataResult();
DataOperations dataOperations = new DataOperations();
List<string> aggregateFields = new List<string>();
if (dataManager.Aggregates != null)
{
for (var i = 0; i < dataManager.Aggregates.Count; i++)
string.Add(dataManager.Aggregates[i].Field);
result.aggregate = dataOperations.PerformSelect(DataSource, aggregateFields);
}
DataSource = dataOperations.PerformSkip(DataSource, dataManager.Skip);
result.result = dataOperations.PerformTake(DataSource, dataManager.Take);
result.count = DataSource.AsQueryable().Count();
return Json(result);
}
public class DataResult
{
public IEnumerable result { get; set; }
public int count { get; set; }
public IEnumerable aggregate { get; set; }
public IEnumerable groupDs { get; set; }
}
}
}The following output is displayed as a result of the previous code example.
