BIRT Sales Invoice Report

Virgil Dodson

Using the "Classic Models Inc." sample database, prints an invoice for the selected order, including customer and invoice details and products ordered. Demonstrates use of a parameter to select the order to invoice and expressions for several calculated fields, including discount and order total. Uses expression to build customer address string and illustrates suppression of nulls in database fields with javascript function replace. Also shows image inclusion and sophisticated use of grids and tables to organize report content. Finally, the report makes use of styles to simplify maintenance and achieve a consistent look. Created in BIRT 2.0.
