Hi Kes & everyone Would you be able to confirm which is true with Ellipse 8: • RDL remains a Cobol pre-compiler used exclusively by ABB who deliver the reports in binary code format; customers are not able to clone /customize RDL report • or RDL has been translated to be a pre-compiler for...

Hi Kes, Thanks a lot for your contribution. I wander if you could pls shed some light on the following: In your experience, is Jasper used as a direct replacement for the operational, canned reports previously supplied by RDL, or it is used in a novel fashion and to what extent is it used for...

What is FocalPoint, does anyone use it and what is your experience?

Does 'Enhanced BU reporting" refer to the Power Pivot plugin & Star Schema bundle from ABB? Is anyone using this and what is your experience?

I would like some information from technical people working on Ellipse 8: what is the architecture around Jasper reporting, what tools are available for Jasper, are the Jasper reports generated or coded, how. Thanks!

I am interested in the technical details of Ellipse 8 reporting and customisations architecture, in the context of upgrading from Ellipse 6.3.1: what does Ellipse 8 out-of-the box have in terms of reporting and customization tools? We know that the standard reports are Jasper, what else? Is RDL...

tHAT SOLVED MY PROBLEM - FANTASTIC - MANY THANKS

I support a system that has a v.large schema with thousands of views. Occasionally I have to apply patches to the views delivered by the software's vendor. Some of the patches will prove incorrect and will need to be rolled back. I "export" the schema prior to change, however I don't have the...

BO webi 6.5 allows to link two reports (parent and target) using the openDocument syntax in a cell formula's. I have following 2 issues while trying it: 1. Problem: The prompted values are not passed into the target document. The target (called document) opens by displaying the prompts screen...

re: Blom You correctly describe my problem. I would think this is a very generic problem that has an easy solution. I tried 'max', wether at report level or at Universe level, and none appeared to work for me. In particular, none returned a correct amount in the reports's grand totals. what...
