Printed report

A Printed report produces a pixel-perfect, formatted output rendered by the JasperReports engine from a JasperReports template (.jrxml). Use this type when you need precisely laid-out, print-ready documents (for example PDF statements or invoices) rather than the interactive drill analysis of a standard Pivot report.

  1. Open report administration and create a new report.
  2. Set Type to Printed report.
  3. (To be documented: template upload, data source binding, parameters, output format.)

(To be documented: how the .jrxml template is uploaded/selected, versioning, and any Deem-specific conventions.)

(To be documented: how report parameters are defined in Insight and passed to the Jasper template, including how filters/period scripts map to parameters.)

(To be documented: how pipeline/report data is mapped to the report fields.)

(To be documented: available output formats — PDF, HTML, XLS, CSV — and where the output is delivered.)

A Printed report can be configured to write its generated file to a server folder — optionally with a metadata file for an external archive such as M3 — in addition to being viewed and downloaded. See Jasper report file export.
