Many organisational DSpace users run reports on DSpace not from within DSpace itself, but from within an external reporting system (Business Intelligence, JasperReports, etc) which connect to DSpace via ODBC. Reports may be run on an external reporting system rather than DSpace to allow integrated reporting across a number of systems, to allow integration with other organisational systems, to exploit existing reporting skills, or for other reasons.

Setting up External Reporting

There are typically four steps to connecting DSpace to an external reporting system. Creating a database user with appropriate rights, allowing database connections from the remote system, opening firewall ports and creating the connection string.
