Running a Report Book
Report books are multiple reports bundled into a single object, created in Jaspersoft Studio. You can run and view report books from the Library page or the repository, much like you would a standard report. However, report books contain some elements that are not found in standard reports.
To run a report book in the Report Viewer:
| 1. | In the repository, click the name of the report book you want to run. For example, click the sample 17. Report Workbook. The report appears, as shown below. |
|
Sample report book as seen in the Report Viewer. |
The sample report book contains three bundled reports:
| • | Distribution by Country, a chart-type report. |
| • | Customer Education, a crosstab-type report. |
| • | Customers List, a table-type report. |
Each of these reports can be accessed by a tab, along with the Table of Contents page, located at the top of the Report Viewer.
| 2. | Click the Chart tab to open the Customer Distribution by Country report. Note that you can interact with this report as you would with a standard chart-based report in the viewer. |
| 3. | Click the TocReport tab to return to the table of contents page. |
| 4. | Scroll down and click the Acapulco entry in the table of contents. The first page of the Acapulco table entries is displayed. |
| 5. | Click |
| 6. | Click the Customer Education entry in the bookmarks pane. The Customer Education crosstab report opens in the viewer. |
| 7. | Close the bookmarks pane by clicking the x in the upper right corner of the pane. |
