JADE Report Writer Configuration

The JADE Report Writer Configuration application creates views of the JADE database. (For more details, see "Reporting Views", later in this chapter.)

The JADE Report Writer Configuration application enables a JADE developer or system administrator to configure the JADE Report Writer for use with a specific JADE application. You can redefine the default system formats at a system level and tailor them for each report.

The JADE Report Writer Configuration application enables you to:

• Define database views that can contain a subset of classes and their properties and methods

• Define meaningful names, or aliases, to be used instead of JADE class and property names

• Join two collections for reporting on related classes within each collection

• Extract and reload reporting view definitions

• Define standard formats that will be applied to all reports defined for the application

• Define and maintain folders in which report and template definitions can be saved

• List, move, or delete reports and template definitions
