Hi Randy,
Thanks for the useful feedback on reporting. I think we should try to both
improve reporting rate listing for the lowest level and include more
orgunit filters in report tables. I would prefer we try to expand report
table functionality rather than advocating for use of custom datasources
with iReoport. The default template for iReport generated off a specific
report table makes it so much easier to use iReport.

One possible quick fix for listing all leaf nodes that were supposed to
report, but still haven't is to make a report table where you select the
dataset you need and make sure it is crosstabbed. Then leave period and
orgunits non-crosstabbed. Select reporting months in both periods and
parameter and select leaf orgunits in parameter. The report table will then
display the completeness percentage for all orgunits at the lowest level.
There are three possible values; 100 for those who have reported, 0 for
those that have still not reported, and blank/NULL for those that are not
supposed to report(not assigned to that dataset). In iReport you can filter
which rows to display based on that field, so e.g. just list all facilities
that still haven't reported. Haven't done exactly this before, but pretty
sure you can do this filtering in iReport.

In the meantime we will work on improving the generic tools to meet your
requirements, which seem very reasonable.
