Module/project presentation

Overview
This module will generate xml-files with customized data. The user should be able to specify which elements
he/she wants to include in the report and the basic layout of the report. We will focus on tables and basic
information, and add charts and more complex information if time allows it. There will also be possible to save
report-templates for re-use.

Requirements

  • Custom layout
  • Custom content
  • Generate report-files according to templates (report files in xml-format)
  • Save templates (xml)
  • Simple webinterface similar to [Data entry form designer]

This module should also include report generation; 1)display the report with data on the webpage and 2)generate pdfs based on the web report.

The idea behind this is to be independent of third party report software, e.g. JasperReports and develop our own report module.

1) This is allready on the milstoneplan (m2: Viewing generated reports in browser)

2) We have chosen to make reports in XML and not in some specific format like HTML or PDF. The reason is that XML is "easy" to convert to HTML using XSLT or to e.g. PDF using XLS-FO. Doing this in this project will just be too much work.
