Description

How to mount or use FineReport templates in FineBI when FineBI is not integrated with FineReport?

Solutions

There are two ways:

1. Mount FineReport Templates to FineBI directory.

2. Display FineReport templates through the Web component link in the dashboard.

Note: If FineBI and FineReport are interconnected, the FineReport template hyperlink can be directly mounted in the FineBI directory. This article will not elaborate on this situation.

This section will introduce how to display the FineReport template Paragraphed Detail Report in the FineBI directory.

Uploading FineReport Template

Copy the FineReport template Paragraphed Detail Report to the directory %FineBI%\webapps\webroot\WEB-INF\reportlets.

Setting Data Connection

The admin should log in to FineBI, click Manage > Data Connection > Data Connection Management, and then click New Data Connection to create a data connection that is identical in name and configuration to the data connection used by the FineReport template Paragraphed Details Report.

Adding Directory

The admin should log in to FineBI, click Manage > Directory, select a directory, and click Add Template.

The editing interface displays all the FineReport templates in FineBI. Select Paragraphed Details Report, and click Next.

Enter the template's name and description, select its type, and click OK. Then Paragraphed Details Report is published successfully.

Note: If the template type is Data Entry, the client must have purchased this function in FineBI, otherwise, filling-in will be unavailable. For details, see Registration Management.

This section will introduce how to display the FineReport template Paragraphed Detail Report in Web component in FineBI.

Uploading FineReport Template

Copy the FineReport template Paragraphed Detail Report to the directory %FineBI%\webapps\webroot\WEB-INF\reportlets.

Setting Data Connection

The admin should log in to FineBI, click Manage > Data Connection > Data Connection Management, and then click New Data Connection to create a data connection that is identical in name and configuration to the data connection used by the FineReport template Paragraphed Details Report.

Creating a Dashboard

Log in to FineBI, click My Analysis > New subject.

You do not have to select data, but just directly click Cancel. Add a dashboard, click Other > Web Component, and drag it to the dashboard.

Add a hyperlink to the web component, corresponding to the FineReport dashboard link: /webroot/decision/view/report?viewlet=xxxxx.cpt

xxxxx.cpt refers to the name of the .cpt file in the reportlets folder where the template is saved.

Take the FineReport template Paragraphed Detail Report as an example. The link to this template is /webroot/decision/view/report?viewlet=Paragraphed Detail Report.cpt.

For example, if Paragraphed Detail Report is located in the sub-folder of reportlets under ..\webapps\webroot\WEB-INF\reportlets\test, the link would be /webroot/decision/view/report?viewlet=test/Paragraphed Detail Report.cpt.

If you want to add a fill-in report, the suffix &op=write needs to be added to the link. For example, Supplier Information is a fill-in report, and the link would be /webroot/decision/view/report?viewlet=Supplier Information.cpt&op=write.

If there is a hyperlink in report A linking to the report B, you not only need to copy report A to the directory ..\webapps\webroot\WEB-INF\reportlets\, but need to copy the template from the hyperlink to the directory ..\reportlets\demo\chart. In this case, the report A can successfully link to the template in report B after report A is added.
