How to declare json object for datatable
<p>I am creating a datatable using jquery. For that I wrote a json object in my javascript inside document.ready function. Below is my code:</p>

<pre><code>   $( document ).ready(function() {
        var multistatement = [
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553701","name":"Account 1","alias":"Atlanta 1","dueDate":"10/19/2016","statementBalance":"34.60","statement":"1"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553702","name":"Account 2","alias":"Atlanta 2","dueDate":"10/19/2015","statementBalance":"14.50","statement":"3"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553703","name":"Account 3","alias":"Atlanta 3","dueDate":"10/19/2015","statementBalance":"15.50","statement":"1"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553704","name":"Account 4","alias":"Atlanta 4","dueDate":"10/19/2015","statementBalance":"15.50","statement":"1"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553705","name":"Account 5","alias":"Atlanta 5","dueDate":"09/19/2016","statementBalance":"100.50","statement":"1"}, 
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553706","name":"Account 6","alias":"Atlanta 6","dueDate":"12/19/2017","statementBalance":"18.50","statement":"1"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553707","name":"Account 7","alias":"Atlanta 7","dueDate":"01/01/2015","statementBalance":"105.50","statement":"3"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553708","name":"Account 8","alias":"Atlanta 8","dueDate":"10/19/2015","statementBalance":"15.50","statement":"1"},

                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553712","name":"Account 12","alias":"Atlanta 12","dueDate":"04/04/2016","statementBalance":"115.50","statement":"1"},
                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553713","name":"Account 13","alias":"Atlanta 13","dueDate":"05/19/2015","statementBalance":"25.50","statement":"1"},

                           {"accountNumber":"131-202553716","name":"Account 16","alias":"Atlanta 16","dueDate":"10/19/2015","statementBalance":"08.50","statement":"1"},

                           ];

    generateDatatable();

    });

function generateDatatable(){
 $('#multiple-account-table').dataTable({
           "data": multistatement,
           "dom": 'it',
           "pageLength": 8,
           "language": {
               "info": "Viewing accounts 1 - _END_ of _TOTAL_ ",
               "emptyTable": "No records are available",
           },
           "columns": [
               {"data": null},
               {"data": "accountNumber"},
               {"data": "name"},
               {"data": "alias"},
               {"data": "dueDate"},
               {"data": "statementBalance"},
               {"data": null}

           ],
           "columnDefs": [
               {className: "pad-md-left-p-10 pad-top-bottom-p-10 white-active-bg mouse-link", "targets": [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]},
               {
                 'targets':   0,
                 'orderable': false,
                    'render': function(data, type, full, meta) {
                         return '&lt;input type="checkbox" name="payment-checkbox" class="multi-checkbox"/&gt;&lt;label for="select-checkbox"&gt;&lt;/label&gt;';
                    }
               }

       }); //End of datatable function 
</code></pre>

<p>}</p>

<p>But this code is giving error that "multistatement is not defined". Is it wrong way to define json object?</p>
