Step-by-Step Guide

From within the Design studio let's quickly start a new Report Design Wizard and take a look at how it appears within the editor. If you're starting with the default design studio installation, select the Default Project within the Package Explorer view on the left side of the Design Studio. From the toolbar at the top of the Design Studio select "New JFree Report Wizard File" from the Pentaho Toolbar Item , and select Finish from the popup dialog.

As you step through the rest of this guide note that the Report Design Wizard is available both as an Eclipse plug-in as well as a standalone application. Many of the sample images you will see are of the standalone application. However the functionality of both is essentially the same. Also keep in mind that this guide relies on the data within the Hypersonic data that comes with the Pentaho BI Server Demo.
