ClearQuest: Conversion Rpt files (CrystalReport) to BIRT

Hello everyone,

My regards for all of you guys. I need your thoughts because of I have the next situation: I work with Clearquest and I use Crystal Reports when I must run some Query Reports. The thing is that I need to do my reports in BIRT and I need to convert my ClearQuest reports (*.rpt files) to BIRT Reports. So, I'll appreciate if someone can give me support or signals about, how can I do for make this conversion. Thank you very much, and Have a nice day!!

PS: I use ClearQuest ver.7.1 and Crystal Reports ver.11.0
Thanks in advance!!

Hi pillbirt,<br />
<br />
I don't know of any conversion tools to help, but BIRT does leverage the same Query Reports that you set up in the ClearQuest client. I don't know how many reports you have to convert, but there is a service called the <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.com/be/services/professional-services/birt-report-factory/'>BIRT Report Factory</a> that can help if you have a lot.<br />
<br />
I'm moving this to the Using BIRT with Rational forums to see if anyone else has more to add.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the tip, vdodson. However, thinking that I don't have so many reports to convert and the budget for my area is a little critical, I don't know if anyone knows some tools for to do the conversion from Crystal Report to BIRT when you have so many reports and/or a manual way to do that conversion. So, If someone could help me, I will be really very grateful.
Thanks in advance!!.
