Report Writer Training, Coming to You Live and In Your Office

Back by popular demand, our most requested remote training event on OpenRPT. If you're interested in learning how to make cosmetic changes to reports, add fields to existing reports, create custom reports and much more, you don't want to miss this class! The class will run in two three-hour sessions back-to-back later this month.

OpenRPT, the free report writer software that comes with all xTuple editions and is available as a standalone product, is a powerful tool for generating reports from your xTuple data.

Join xTuple's Director of Product Training, Mike Atherton, for this unique remote training course which starts with a review of the basics of the industry-standard Structured Query Language (SQL) and concludes with the creation of a new ad hoc report using OpenRPT.

Here's what you can expect to learn:

  • a good grounding in database usage with instruction on SQL and Meta SQL (xTuple's simple scripting tool for preparing queries)
  • an introduction to OpenRPT and how to make cosmetic changes to reports
  • how to add new fields and other elements to existing xTuple reports
  • the class concludes with a step by step demonstration of how to create a custom report in xTuple and deploy it through the renderer with xTuple custom commands
