Adding a business/report cube

To add a business/report cube to a catalog, follow the steps below:

  1. In JReport Designer, click File > Catalog Management > Open Catalog to open the catalog to which you want to add the business/report cube.
  2. In the Data tab of the Catalog Browser, right-click the Business Cubes node, and select Add Business Cube from the shortcut menu. Or, on the main menu bar, click File > New > Business Cube.

    To add a report cube, expand the Imported SQLs/Stored Procedures/User Defined/Queries node in the Data tab of the Catalog Browser, select the source on which the report cube will be based, right-click the Report Cube node and then click Add Report Cube.

  3. In the Input Business/Report Cube Name dialog, enter a name for the business/report cube, and then click OK.
  4. In the Business/Report Cube Editor window, edit the business/report cube as required.
  5. Click the Save button on the toolbar of the window to save it.
  6. Click File > Close to close the window. The business/report cube will now have been added to the catalog.

In addition, you can rename an existing business/report cube or remove it from the catalog if not required.
