Pentaho Reports for OpenERP

This project provides an addon for OpenERP that integrates it with the Pentaho reporting system. End users of OpenERP can design reports using Pentaho report designer v3.9 (instructions on how to setup the designer: http://bit.ly/L4wPoC), and install/access them from inside the OpenERP interface.

The second component is a Java based report server designed to be run as a web application that can be deployed in any standard Java servlet container (like Tomcat, Jetty, etc.)

Building the Java component

The included Ant build file contains a "war" target which performs all the necessary tasks to compile the web application and create the pentaho-reports-for-openerp.war file. This requires that Apache Ant be installed, and also Apache Ivy as it is used to retrieve all the dependencies required to compile and run the application.

$ cd <extracted_path>/java_server
$ ant war

If the build completed successfully, the WAR file can be found in the build/jar directory.

For testing purposes, a standalone server that listens on port 8090 (by default) can be launched using the "launch" target:

$ ant launch

Integrating and Defining reports to OpenERP

The OpenERP module description contains an overview of creating report actions and defining and using report parameters.
