OpenReports 2.0 Professional Edition
July 9th, 2006
The first release of OpenReports 2.0 is coming soon. A professional version of OpenReports 2.0 featuring a Reporting Dashboard and Alerts, will also be released at the same time. Take a look at the OpenReports RoadMap for a list of new features in both versions and for a Flash Demo of OpenReports 2.0 Professional.
I’m looking for a couple of additional beta testers for OpenReports 2.0 Professional. If you’re a current user of OpenReports 1.0 and are interested, send me an email.

Hello,
I am interested in trying out OpenReports 2.0. I looked at the demo - looks good. I have the following questions:
1. Would OpenReports 2.0 allow drilling down into charts? This is the only significant functionality that OpenReports is missing. I know this can be done with JFreeChart - is integrating with JFreeChart an option being considered?
2. Does the term “Professional” imply that this will not be a free version?
3. Any plans for “Pivot table” type functionality?
regards,

The first milestone release of OpenReports 2.0, which should be available in a week or so, does not support drilling down into charts. OpenReports is already using JFreeChart for charts, and I hope to add chart drill down before the OpenReports 2.0 final release.
OpenReports 2.0 will come in two versions, a GPL licensed version and a Professional Edition with additional features including those shown in the demo. I plan on offering OpenReports 2.0 Professional at $100 per server for an introductory period.
No plans for Pivot table support. Have you tried JasperReports Cross Tab reports with OpenReports?

Hi,
I would like to say that OpenReports is a very interesting project. I was very happy to hear that you’ve done a new release.
I’m working on the integration of the portlet version on liferay… and I want to tell you some small things I noticed:
- You still continue to use a deprecated version of webwork (2.1.1) while webwork is on his 2.2.3 version. And it’s a problem for the integration because there are some features to help developping portlet.
- The velocity framework is now deprecated for webwork and all the pages need to be refactoring … I just want to understand why you are not upgrading the display between the version ?!
7. eswenson | August 2nd, 2006 at 3:29 am
The reason I have not upgraded to the newest version of WebWork is because Velocity has been deprecated and JSP tags in Velocity pages are no longer supported. All the Velocity pages would have to rewritten and any existing QueryReport templates would not work.
I am trying to focus my efforts on adding new features and making OpenReports more user friendly instead working on things that are really only of use to other developers.

I just came across OpenReports today, and it looks quite impressive! Two questions:
1. What is meant/implied by the “professional” in the name OpenReports Professional? Is it some sort of fee-based option on top of the base OpenReports package? I would hope not, but then again “open” does not necessarily mean “free” does it!!
2. I wonder if OpenReports could be used to generate reports against a Lotus Notes database. By using Notes views, you can list underlying documents sorted and categorized in various ways, but there are limitations to what you can achieve with views, therefore an external reporting tool is needed for more extensive reporting. I wonder if OpenReports would interface with Notes (you can put Java code inside a Notes dayabase, but I don’t know if this goes as far as interfacing with a tool such as OpenReports). Any comments or opinions on this? Has anybody tried it?

I’m trying to put a Birt report I have, but when I try to run it I get the following message “This functionality is not supported in this version of OpenReports”
Do I need the proffesional version for runn BIRT reports?
Thanks
