Configuring and Publishing BI Publisher Custom Templates (Custom Prints and Reports)
Unifier integrates with BI Publisher to deliver on-demand web-based reporting.
Custom Reports, built in BI Publisher, enable the Company Administrator (or power user) to build visually stunning, detailed reports. For example:
- A report that combines information from multiple (and possibly non-linked) Business Processes (BPs)
- A report that needs professional looking graphics, charts, images, or clip art
The following sections explain how to create and configure custom prints and custom reports in the BI Publisher (Oracle Business Intelligence (BI) Publisher or BIP).
To publish custom prints and custom reports:
- Prepare the custom print or custom report
- Click Status
- Select Publish
Note: Oracle supports the delivery of BI Publisher reports in PDF format by way of email, only.
