Jasper Reports
If the facility is in a custom report that Adempiere is still not enough, you can use custom reports using Jasper Reports. By using Jasper Reports reports you can create more complex designs, such as for accounting and taxation Indonesia. To help design the report would normally use another utility assistance, for example iReports.
Hopefully next time I’ll try to write about creating reports using Jasper Reports and iReport.
