The next release of Openbravo POS, the version 2.10, includes a new model to develop reports and charts, and as a proof of concept all the reports bundled with Openbravo POS has been ported to the new model. With the new model you do not need neither to touch any single line of source code nor to compile the application. With this new model you will decrease the time and money you need to implement Openbravo POS and to adapt it to your business needs and legal requirements.
New reports and charts can be included just adding plain text files to the Openbravo POS folder /reports. A report consist in three files: The configuration file, the report file and the translations file. The configuration file is the most important one, there you define the title, the SQL sentence to get the report data, parameters, fields, what is the report file and what is the translations file. The report file is the JasperReports file and you can edit this file with iReport. And the translations file is used to define literals that need to be translated.
The bundled Openbravo POS reports are great to have a look if you want to include your own reports in the application, there you will find examples of all the possibilities to create new reports for Openbravo POS.

Hello. I think that you are talking about an Openbravo ERP report, not an Openbravo POS report. It will be better to write your question on the support forums because I do not now the answer. https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=549511

Hi Adrian,
I find a issue when changing the file productlabels.jrxml (in folder reports from opt/...)
Using ireport 1.5 It does nothing when restarting the POS.
More fun, it works also with standard labels when the file is DELETED and the POS restarted !
I work with last OPENBRAVOPOS 2.3
PS: I had to paste the original heading code on productlabels.jrxml when I was using the previous 2.2 POS version, and ireport 1.3
