I used to develop report in SSRS and a newbie in birt, there're a bunch of handy global functions in SSRS that can be used but can't be found in birt.
I tried to develop a report that needs to show the sysuser who are executing the report but can't find an easy way to implement it in birt.
Can anyone suggest me an easy way to do it? Do I need to install Maximo and use para userName?
Thank you in advance!
You can use following JavaScript:
Packages.java.lang.System.getProperty("user.name")
This will run Java method System.getProperty("user.name") which returns current user.

I am very new to working with SAS, have not worked with it before. My current workplace is asking me to migrate reports over from SAS and rework them using SSIS/SSRS. I'm not sure how would be the best way to go about this or where even to start. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
You will need to look at the data sources and the report outputs and figure out what is required to manually recreate the reports from scratch in SQL and SSRS. There is no conversion tool available.
I'm developing an app in VB6 and added a data report bound to a data environment. I set the report as start up object, but it shows the designer and not the report viewer!
I have built a new project and imported all of the objects back in but to no avail.
I did a test with a small Data Project and it worked.
Has anyone else come across this problem?
Thanks in advance.
Problem allayed due to the fact that SHAPE commands cannot be used with DISCONNECTED recordsets...which defeats what I am trying to achieve here.
I'll use MSAccess reports via OLE server.
Thanks for looking anyway!
I can create a basic report I want in Version One's custom reporting tool, then export it into excel, then use filtering to drill down by specific attributes. I see no way to do this in the custom reporting module. Is there a way to accomplish this I'm missing? Am I forever reliant on excel? Or do I have to learn the API to get this done?
I have downloaded the sample app of the Doddle Report and understand it is to report a collection of IEnumerable data. I am able to get data reported nicely for a simple report.
However, the sample app did not have grouping. I would think to accomplish this I need to extend the functionality from the source code to show group format and wonder if anyone tried and succeed. If so, how should I approach it? Thanks in advance.
As far as I know, Doddle Report doesn't have grouping capability built into the system.
According to some of the discussion on the codeplex,
DoddleReport.Codeplex.com
it appears that the creator is also looking for someone to include that functionality.
One work-around I used for different groups was to create an excel report and then use AppendReport() to get multiple pages in the same report. Unfortunately, the iTextSharp report writer doesn't implement AppendReport() so I had to use the OpenXml writer for this.
I am looking for a way to integrate jasper reports in a netbeans platform application. I have googled this and there seem to be no direct answer, so am asking to be helped in this.
to be specific i use a MySql database and ireport designer to design my reports. I need to display the specific reports in a report viewer and display it in a top component.
please direct me on a way to accomplish this.
It seems like you should be using the JRViewer component.
Have a look at this Jasper Reports Swing tutorial. The only difference is that instead of embedding your JRViewer in a JFrame you'll be embedding it in a TopComponent
