Hi all,

Hi all,
I followed previous discussions about reporting in Ofbiz.
There were some stuff so that third-party report could work with ofbiz.
This is a list with links or comments:
JasperReport (usage deprecated)
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Open+Source+Projects+and+Standards
BIRT: (doesn't use entity Engine)
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1348
DataVision: (there are imported classes in Ofbiz)
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Open+Source+Projects+and+Standards
Now I'm selecting data through the Entity Engine and by JFreeChart I'm
generating graphics using a ChartViewHandler class.
To export ListForm to pdf I'm using XSLT:FO (FOP) Look at
http://www.nabble.com/Generating-Reports-in-Ofbiz-td8706717.html#a8711198 or
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/FAQ+-+Tips+-+Tricks+-+Cookbook+-+HowTo#FAQ-Tips-Tricks-Cookbook-HowTo-XSLFO
To export to excel or xml I'm following this advice:
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Export+to+Excel
I want to make it clear first that I would always like to use entity
engine.
My two questions are:
Why DataVision? Is it useful? Who can provide me an example?
I have problems with excel format, is there a way that allows me to create
an real excel file and not a xml file?
Hoping it might be helpful,
thank you for future explanations.

Have you looked into what it actually means for Opentaps to include
Pentaho?
You might be surprised...

when doing BI you want a flat data info, not relationships, I agree.
so in essence the complete layout of ofbiz does not allow for fast
access of meta data.
the was addressed by generating flat structure entities that represent
the warehouse data needed
Like in most systems I have dealt with there is a nightly build of the
data for use for reports the next day. Similar to the table add code in
ofbiz is a entity build for the flat files.
Why, well for the one reason I came on board with ofbiz ease of maintenance.

Re: Have you ever integrated pentaho with ofbiz
Posted by David E Jones <da...@hotwaxmedia.com>.
Why would you ever want to have Pentaho run through the Entity Engine?
In general stand-alone reporting and BI tools like Crystal Reports,
Business Objects, etc, etc are much better when they talk directly to
the database.
It is true that long ago we did some stuff so that JasperReports could
run through the Entity Engine, but honestly I think it made JR _less_
useful instead of more...

I shudder every time some one calls ofbiz a database application.
it takes a lot of work to integrate something that only deals with a
database to work with the entity engine.
So if you have a patch that converts pentaho to the entity engine then
Please share, I would be interested.

me too: please post here once in awhile and let me know how your group
is going.
Now word about ofbiz and opentaps: we will be deprecating more of the
ofbiz things in favor of open source projects like Spring and hibernate,
and a few others that are less well known, but also very high quality.
So, while understanding the ofbiz framework will certainly continue to
be important, there are also a lot of other technologies here now in
opentaps.

Re: Have you ever integrated pentaho with ofbiz
Posted by Tim Ruppert <ti...@hotwaxmedia.com>.
No worries - I totally understand pentaho and it's abilities and that it is available OOTB in Opentaps. My simple request, is to look at Apache OFBiz - which is a far superior product IMHO - and build on top of that instead of messing around with something else. There are people that have done it in OFBiz, so let's look to them instead of sending our community elsewhere.
I hope you understand where I am coming from as well.
Cheers,
Tim

hi Tim,
Actually, pentaho technically can integrate with all database applications.
But point here is pentaho is ready in opentaps but not in ofbiz. When I
consider which one to go with if BI is a must, I still prefer opentaps.
No offense. Just list my simple reason here :-)

Re: Have you ever integrated pentaho with ofbiz
Posted by Tim Ruppert <ti...@hotwaxmedia.com>.
If I were you, I'd probably talk with others in the community rather than moving to opentaps. There are people who have integrated pentaho into Apache OFBiz successfully too. I think that Marco Risaliti - one of the committers here did - but I can't remember if it was him for sure.
Cheers,
Tim

hi Thuan,
You can take a look at opentaps, which is on top of ofbiz. And opentaps
supports pentaho.

My clients want something they understand and can create reports on the fly.
Most of my clients have come from a windows environment and are familiar
with Crystal reports, as far as familiarity.
I enhances the Ireports.
I have been playing with a report page the used FTL for selecting Data,
then using an ftl to format and output to excel directly.
any thing you wish to contribute, would be appreciated.

Thanks BJ
Which software you want to use to generate report in ofbiz?
Do developers of ofbiz want to use pentaho for ofbiz report?
If no, which software they want to use?

Jasper reports are also coded, but commented out since they do not have
a apache license.
you can look at that for a model.
