Configuring Materialized Report Views - Users of InetSoft's reporting software can easily configure the materialized report views in order to allocate resources for high level report performance. To configure the server to use distributed materialized views, and to configure the individual nodes, follow the steps below: 1. Shut down the Style Intelligence server. 2. Add the following properties to the sree.properties file (in the SREE Home directory) on the Style Intelligence server...
Configuring Report Server Clusters - InetSoft's reporting software is based on javascript and allows users to configure report server clusters in order to optimize the speed and performance of the application. Each cluster node will run only the repository servlet (servlet class: inetsoft.sree.web.ServletRepository). One node may additionally run the admin servlet as well, if desired. All cluster nodes must share a common registry directory which is specified as an init parameter in the deployment descriptor file (web.xml). Any change made in the Enterprise Manager (e.g., enabling/disabling security) after the cluster is set up and started will only be reflected when the nodes are restarted. Before deployment of a cluster node, ensure that the node has an installation of the desired InetSoft software, or that the servlet repository is deployed on any appserver on the node...

Configuring Report Server Emails - Configuring the report server emails with InetSoft's reporting software allows for simple report distribution that is unmatched by other reporting applications on the market. Mail configuration controls how the Scheduler will email reports to a user and how an end user can contact an administrator in case an error is generated by the engine. The email is always sent from one fixed email address, specified as part of the mail configuration. For email delivery to work, the mail host must be configured and point to a valid SMTP server. This section describes the basic properties available on the 'Mail Configuration' page...
Configuring the Report Repository - InetSoft's reporting software gives users the ability to configure the report repository in order to meet individual organizational needs. The definitions of all Viewsheets are stored in the registry file named asset.dat. To add a Viewsheet to the Repository, use the Visual Composer to save the Viewsheet into a global scope. See Viewsheet for more details. To modify setting for a particular Viewsheet, click the desired Viewsheet in the Repository tree. This opens the 'Viewsheet Definition' page, which consists of three tabs on the bottom of the page. These are Viewsheet, Materialized View, and Security. The next sections provide additional details about the available settings...
Configuring the Report Scheduler - Configuring the report scheduler is an easy task when using InetSoft's reporting software, a powerful and flexible business intelligence platform that provides real-time visual analysis. The 'Scheduler' is an application which facilitates scheduled batch report generation. An administrator or any end user (with scheduler permissions) can access this tool via the Enterprise Manager and/or the Report Portal. You can create one or more scheduled 'tasks' for which you specify a time condition, reports to be generated, delivery mechanism (email, print, save to disk, archive, etc.), and format (PDF, Excel, etc.) of the generated output...
Create a Financial Report - So to create this financial report, let’s start with the invoice header information. Then you can select what fields of information would you like to display. Well, you might want to look at vendor number. You can drag and drop that information. Or you can double click selecting vendor name, and then you might want to also include the invoice amount. And how do you get a count of these invoices? Well, you can take invoice number and drag and drop that over and then tell the system to use one of the built-in functions and select account. The next question is do you want every record that’s in your database or would you rather filter it down to a specific period? So for today, select a particular company by double clicking on the company, and here you can see a list of all the companies that are available. You can select a single company, a range of companies, or you can do a multi-select. For this report, selecting company 100 will serve as the best way to show information. And then without looking at all the information again, how about using the date filter? That way you can be very selective about the period of information that you are viewing. So for today’s purposes, start with January 01, 2011 and go through December 31 of 2011...
