Reports provide a way for you to view, share and print information derived from the objects you have created.
CentraSite Reports can be used to register BIRT (Business Intelligence and Reporting Tools) reports. Such reports can be created, for example, using the Eclipse plug-ins delivered with CentraSite. For information about installing and starting the plug-ins, refer to the section Setting up the Eclipse Plug-Ins in the document Post Installation and Additional Uninstallation Steps for CentraSite. Documentation describing how to create BIRT reports is contained in the Eclipse online help that is delivered with the plug-ins.
The data model that UDDI CentraSite uses to store the metadata of a BIRT report complies with the best practices given in the technical note entitled "Using BPEL4WS in a UDDI Registry", available on the OASIS web site at https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/uddi-spec/doc/tn/uddi-spec-tc-tn-bpel-20040725.htm.
For general information about the BIRT technology, see the description of the BIRT project in the Projects section of the Eclipse site at http://www.eclipse.org/birt/.
