Designer 10.5 | Centrasite Eclipse UI Help | Tasks | Working with Reports | Working with Data Sources and Data Sets

For working with the data sources and data sets you have created for CentraSite or relational databases, you use the standard functions of BIRT. For details, refer to the BIRT documentation.

The following BIRT dialogs include pages specific to CentraSite or relational databases (SQL):

Edit Data Source dialog for data sources of type CentraSite: On the Registry Page, you can change the object/table mapping between CentraSite and BIRT.

Edit Data Set dialog for data sets using a data source of type CentraSite: On the Define Query Page, you can modify the search criteria.

Edit Data Set dialog for data sets using a data source of type CentraSite XQuery: On the Specify XQuery Page, you can modify the query. On the Define Table Mapping Page and Define Column Mapping Page pages, you can change the table and column mappings.

For more information on the XQuery functions and modules, see CentraSite Developer’s Guide.
