Why would you ever want to have Pentaho run through the Entity Engine?
In general stand-alone reporting and BI tools like Crystal Reports,
Business Objects, etc, etc are much better when they talk directly to
the database.
It is true that long ago we did some stuff so that JasperReports could
run through the Entity Engine, but honestly I think it made JR _less_
useful instead of more...

I shudder every time some one calls ofbiz a database application.
it takes a lot of work to integrate something that only deals with a
database to work with the entity engine.
So if you have a patch that converts pentaho to the entity engine then
Please share, I would be interested.

hi Tim,
Actually, pentaho technically can integrate with all database
applications.
But point here is pentaho is ready in opentaps but not in ofbiz.
When I
consider which one to go with if BI is a must, I still prefer
opentaps.
No offense. Just list my simple reason here :-)

If I were you, I'd probably talk with others in the community

moving to opentaps. There are people who have integrated pentaho
into
Apache OFBiz successfully too. I think that Marco Risaliti - one
of the
committers here did - but I can't remember if it was him for sure.
Cheers,

hi Thuan,
You can take a look at opentaps, which is on top of ofbiz. And
opentaps
supports pentaho.

Hi all,
I see that the reports in ofbiz is very simple.
I want to integrate third-party report into ofbiz. I prefer
pentaho.
Could you give me some suggestion about the integration.
Thanks.
