Chatree Srichart commented on OFBIZ-4952:
-----------------------------------------

Hi Jacques,

For the user point of view, BIRT Web Viewer provides many options to play over the report:
- Showing table of content
- Changing report's parameters over AJAX dialog
- Exporting data by selecting required columns
- Exporting report with many options
- Printing report
- AJAX pagination

For the developer point if view, they can test the report that they are working on by just specify report's path on the address bar, don't need to create request map, view map, screen for testing. For testing, they might change values of parameters often, so that they don't need to wait the whole page reloaded anytime they change the parameter's values.

Sure, these features could be done by OFBiz screen but there is no one implement it yet. If so, he/she might need to spend so much of power to do to get it work the same as BIRT Web Viewer works.

Best Regards,
Chatree Srichart

> Hello all,
> I have created a patch to solve a viewer servlet problem and uncomment the viewer servlet in the birt webapp. To do this will allow a user to use BIRT Web Viewer to render a report by coping a webcontent directory from birt-runtime-x_x_x/WebViewerExample directory and paste into the birt webapp directory ($OFBIZ_HOME/specialpurpose/example/webapp/birt).
> These are URLs to render example reports using BIRT Web Viewer.
