The new report definition is added to the list in alphabetical order and can be run immediately, if
desired.
Creating New Reports
Users can modify or write reports by using JasperForge iReport. a graphical report designer for
JasperReports. iReport is an open source report development tool that is available for download
from JasperForge.org (http://jasperforge.org/plugins/project/project_home.php?group_id=83)
the time of this publication).
New or modified reports can include additional database fields that are not presented in the Sentinel
Rapid Deployment Web interface. They must adhere to the file and format requirements of the
report plug-ins. For more information about database fields and file and format requirements for
report plug-ins, see the Sentinel SDK Web site (http://developer.novell.com/wiki/
index.php?title=Develop_to_Sentinel).
