Reports are used to extract important information about existing data of the Software and are generated using two files: an XML file used to define the report criteria and information displayed, and a JRXML file used to define the report layout. Reports can be generated in any of the following forms: PDF, EXCEL, CSV and HTML.
What does this section cover?
Creating Report Pages
To create a new report page you need to create an XML file and a JRXML file or use one of the existing CRM.COM JRXML files.
Creating Report Layout Pages
Using Report Layout Templates
CRM.COM Software includes the following report layout templates for landscape and portrait page orientation and for reports containing subreports. All report layout templates can be found under ../reports directory
1. Landscape: A00_A4_Landscape.jrxml
Landscape Report Page Example
2. Portrait: B00_A4_Portrait.jrxml
3. Report (A00_A4_Landscape_With_SubReport.jrxml) with sub-report (A00_A4_Landscape_SubReport.jrxml)
In the following example, A00_A4_Landscape_With_SubReport.jrxml is used for the main report which is Rewards Participants Balance, and A00_A4_Landscape_SubReport.jrxml is used for the sub-report which includes each participant's participating schemes.
Report with sub-report Page Example
Designing Report Layout Pages
If none of the above templates meet your needs, you can create your own JRXML file using iReport Designer.
Creating Report Criteria and Content Pages
To create a new report criteria and content page, you need to create an XML file under ../reports/<module_name> directory.
In the following example Accounts_Receivable_Balance.xml is created under ../reports/AccountsReceivable
