Deploying Reports in CentraSite
Reports you have created in BIRT can be made available and executable in CentraSite. Deploying a report in CentraSite means:
*Uploading the report design file (.rptdesign) from Eclipse to the projects/CentraSite/Reports folder of the CentraSite repository.
*Creating an object of type Report in the CentraSite registry.
*Creating an external link between the new registry object and the repository file.
Deploying a report is equivalent to Importing Reports. Reports in CentraSite can be linked to object types and previewed from the CentraSite Eclipse GUI.
Note:
A BIRT report that contains subreports cannot be deployed to CentraSite.
*To deploy a report in CentraSite
1. Select the report you want to make available and executable in CentraSite, for example, in the Eclipse Navigator view.
2. Select Deploy Report to CentraSite in the context menu.
3. On the Import Report page of the Import wizard, specify a name for the design file to be imported. You can also enter a description for it. Use the Browse button to select the file in the file system of your computer. Check the Overwrite existing imported template file option if an existing design file with the specified name is to be overwritten by the import operation.
