Inputs and Outputs

Report Specification - The file that contains the Pentaho Report definition. The file may be either a JFreeReport definition or a Pentaho Report Design Wizard specification.

Subreport Data/Queries - The data sets or prepared queries referenced by subreports appearing in the report definition. Any queries used should be tagged for execution by the Pentaho Report engine (Refer to the various query actions for more details).

Report Format - The output report format.
