Description Create and distribute HTML reports from a web interface In Catalog
No


This application works in conjunction with the free CMS system PDQ Portal (http://www.pdqportal.com). It provides a convenient way to generate reports or other HTML or plain text messages from any database that can be accessed from the server.

- Reports are designed in sections that define what database, index, key and selection formula to use
- Child sections can specify different databases
- Allows relational reporting of Notes data without the performance penalty of NotesSQL and without having to restructure indexes
- Generated reports can then be distributed.
- The report generation and distribution process can be used for sending out bulk email newsletters
- Distribution lists are generated by selecting user names, database ACL groups, uploaded CSV files, or can be created dynamically from data in any database
- The distribution process runs on the server and progress can be monitored from the "run document"
- The "Run document" can stop / start / pause the distribution or a particular report
- Throttling of transmissions can be set in the configuration document

The file posted here contains all of the definition documents and @formulas that define the report generation application. To use this application, download the free PDQ Portal CMS system and copy these documents in to it (if they are not there already). All code in this application is released under the GNU GPL license and can be freely modified and distributed.

Coming soon: two pass reports and numerous total and summarizing improvements.


Projects can have short and readable URLs, e.g. http://mobilecontrols.openntf.org.

You can request a short URL to your project by sending a mail to support at openntf dot org. Put the word 'OpenNTF' somewhere in the subject.
Owners are the people with maximal rights. For example they can create releases and add more contributors.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Because of data privacy you cannot lookup other people's names but you have to type them in.
Enter the contributors or owners here who you want to receive notifications and questions by email.

In addition to the owners additional OpenNTF contributors have to be listed here. Contributors don't have the same access rights as owners, e.g. they cannot create releases.

In order to define multiple owners use "," (comma) as separator.

Enter a short description of the project here (up to 100 characters).

The short description shows up in the project UI and in some of the views.
In this field you should enter a more detailed description of your project.

You can use the rich text editor for rich text formating. You can also enter HTML to embed objects, e.g. to embed a YouTube video or a screenshot of the project. In this case use '[' and ']' to mark the passthrough HTML as such.

Please note that the first time you use the new UI your description is converted from rich text to MIME. You might want to copy and paste the raw plain text from the old UI in the new UI so that you don't loose information.
