For those who have already invested in the iReport learning curve, the good news is that Jaspersoft Studio has virtually the same functionality as iReport.  Most of the features work the same, though the screen is a bit more cluttered.

I've created .jrxml files from report tables and edited them in the new platform and they seem to work fine as standard reports in DHIS-2.  My custom iReports based on Postgres queries also work fine.  It doesn't seem like you can import your database connections, so you have to re-create those again.  If you link to several DHIS-2 instances, you might want to leave iReport on your system and view the data adaptor properties so that you can recreate them in Jaspersoft studio.

Hi Murod

That does sound interesting.  So you are manipulating the odf xml somehow.  But in the end it is linked to what? A jdbc link to a database view?  Or are you getting data with the analytics api?

My earlier look at openoffice calc showed that it was not so good at manipulating very large amounts of data - like for example the way we used excel for pivot tables.  So you have to do this processing elsewhere.  This is why I wonder whether you make use of analytics in dhis.

Shame you can't share more.

Hi Samta,

No, we are not using any libreoffice applications in thiis sense. This means no need to have libreoffice installed to manipulate documents. No any heavy web application like jasper server ore the like. Libreoffice is used to design the template. Simply reading and writing XML files inside this docs.

Hi Murod,
Are you using libreoffice java application for generating template without using any tool like: iReport or jasper studio ?

Hi Knut,

Yes, we are using libreoffice applications for report templates as was in excel reporting module of DHIS2, but in a different way that allows reports of any complexity to be generated.
Unfortunately I cannot share the module at this time.

That's interesting, Murod. Are you saying you are linking in Word or Excel? Could you explain a bit more? Anything you can share?

Hi all,
I think there should be other options than Jasper Reports.
We are developing a reporting module to eliminate "end user - DHIS2 healthcare user", "report designer - I(Jasper)report master", "query builder - SQL or DBMS" into a single source. So far we did lots of progress producing reports in many famous formats without attention from above three. This means anybody designing report can produce it without the knowledge of "three above" just by knowing elementary office apps. We are stepping into more advanced development to reduce calculation times, scheduling, etc.
Best regards,
murod

Hi Samta,

I think it is quite new to all of us - would be great if you could try it out and report back to the DHIS community about your experiences.

Thanks,
Knut

What are new feature in jasper studio? I was searched on this jasper studio it is same as iReport for designing. Is it possible to use/create multiple query or table without using sub report in this jasper studio?

Hi Randy,

yes the jrxml format is the same. Jasper studio is just another design tool for the format. Also, there is nothing stopping you from using iReport even though they will not put more features into it.

Hi Lars,

Does Jaspersoft Studio produce the .jrxml files that can be incorporated into DHIS-2 or do you have to do some work on your end before we can use it?  I'm organizing an advanced training in iReport for Rwanda data managers and need to know if I can switch to Studio before the training.

Thanks,

Randy

Hi,

it seems iReport is deprecated and that jaspersoft now focuses on jasper studio, an eclipse-based report designer for jasper reports.
