Following on from our last article, ‘Using Pentaho Report Designer to Create Reports for OpenERP v7’: Click here<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

It is recommended that you read through the previous articles for ease of reference.<\/p>\n

We now move on to adding your custom query to the report page layout.<\/p>\n

If you are familiar with formatting tools, you should be able to get to grips with the editor, but there are a few basic rules to note:<\/p>\n

* for the top 2 sections (Page Header and Report Header), these need one Text Label added to each for the editor to work – you can use the name of the report, column headings for the field rows that will be included in the report, and so on – the Text Label button is marked as ‘Ab’ at the top of the column on the left.<\/p>\n

Here, you can see the layout of the page editor, note the positioning as mentioned above – Page Header, Report Header, and the Text Label button:\"PRD\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Then, we select the data fields from our Query – in the screenshot below, we have a simple query (Customer Name, Customer Shipping Address, and Email) based on orders entered into our test database –<\/p>\n

(Note how we have used the fields from the Data Panel on the right in the ‘Details’ Section, and have also added in Text Labels on the Header section)<\/p>\n

\"PRD1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We can see how this will look in a variety of filetypes by clicking ‘File’>’Preview’ > and select your preferred type – here, we’ll go with a PDF:<\/p>\n

\"PRD2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once you are happy with the layout, look and feel of it, simply save your Pentaho Report in the designer as a .prpt file. – we’ll use this in the next section – Click here<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
