Easier way to generate reports

Is there an easier possibility, to generate reports in cmdBuild?

The CMDBuild reporting system is based on the open source JasperStudio tool. The reports are configured with its visual editor and then they are imported and executed in CMDBuild. The use of JasperStudio is not particularly complex but requires knowledge of the tool (there are manuals online), the SQL language and the structure of the CMDBuild database.
Alternatively, you can print the content of each CMDBuild class, selecting from the user interface the list of columns to be printed and the filter to be applied, and obtaining a CSV or PDF file.

thx for answering my question but this isn´t enough for me. when a class have serveral relations, they will not printed when i export to csv ord pdf.

In your case you have to use JasperStudio to draw the report, and then import the definition (XML) into CMDBuild and put it in the menu available to users.

ok thank you, i will try!
