Downgrade process from Pro to Community?

[jackh]

Hi everyone -

We've been using Jasper for several years, and for the past 3 years have been using the pro suite.  Our license is expiring, and as of now I cannot justify the huge cost of renewing, as we use very few pro features (no multi-tenacity, very few adhoc reports, etc.)

However, we have TONS of reports, all built in iReport, many scheduled, that are deployed to the live server.

Is there a downgrade path to move back to Community Edition?  Will my reports built in iReport Pro open in iReport Community?  Are there any gotchas I should be aware of?

thanks for any assistance!

1) You have to convert your adhoc reports into simple reports & there will be no more dashboard

2) Internally pro adds an additional nomenclature to the path where all the resources are saved, deployed & executed.

3) Additional jars are provided in the pro version.

Best is, download a free version and run your few reports on this version... it will take only a day.
