Use iReport

Introduction

i-Report

iReport is a third-party application that allows you to generate custom-defined reports on IMSMA data. Using iReport, you may define the attributes that are returned by a report and also customise the appearance of the report.

How To Use This Manual

This guide provides information for using iReport with IMSMA. It provides the steps for configuring and using iReport to report on IMSMA data. It is not intended to serve as a complete guide for using iReport. For detailed information on using iReport, refer to the iReport help or documentation.

Conventions

Table 1 lists the conventions used in the manual.

Sample Reports

IMSMA includes several iReport sample reports. These reports may be used as is or used as a reference to create your reports. The sample reports are installed in the \iReports\IMSMA reports directory of your IMSMA installation directory.

Article 7: Form A

The Article 7: Form A report returns the total area size of all reductions that are being reported on, the total area size of all hazards that have been linked to the reported reductions, and a count of all victims that have been linked to the reported reductions. If a search definition is associated with the report, the search definition name will be displayed in the report title.

Accident Victim Summary Report

The Accident Victim Summary report lists accidents and the victims that are linked to them. In this example, the victim data is linked to the accident and returned via a sub-report. For this type of report, compile the sub-report (Sub-reports\Summary_AccidentVictim_sub-report0.jrxml) before attempting to run the main report.

Set the SUB-REPORT_DIR parameter to .\Sub-reports\.

Appendix A: IMSMA Database

Overview

The IMSMA database contains tables for IMSMA’s base data (country structures, explosive, ordnance, organisations, and places), locations, and the locations’ associated accidents, hazards, hazard reductions, MREs, QCs, and victims.

Figure 56. Conceptual database model

Figure 56. Conceptual database model

Within each country structure are zero or more locations. For example, a particular province may have multiple locations within it while another province has no locations. Each location may have zero or more items such as accidents, hazards, hazard reductions, MREs, QCs, or victims associated with them. These accidents, hazards, hazard reductions, MREs, QCs, or victims are added to the IMSMA database via field reports.

IMSMA items may have either a direct or a linked relationship to other items. Direct relationships occur when one item requires the other item to exist. For example, an accident, hazard, hazard reduction, MRE, QC, or victim has a direct relationship to the location to which it is associated. The accident, hazard, hazard reduction, MRE, QC, or victim cannot exist unless it is associated with a location. This direct relationship is enforced in IMSMA via the reconciliation process. Direct relationships also exist when subsets of data are contained within an item. For example, an MRE may have MRE details such as the MRE type, total audience, and percentage of women and men. The MRE details data requires the MRE to exist. Table 15. Direct relationships between items lists the items and the data subsets that depend on them.

Table 15. Direct relationships between items
Parent item	Child item(s) which require the parent item
Hazard reduction	Impact survey Interviewee Organisation Question Sample Sector Vegetation removal
Location	Accident Hazard Hazard reduction MRE QA Victim
MRE	MRE details
Victim	Received MRE

Linked relationships are optional relationships which may exist between items. Accidents, hazards, hazard reductions, MREs, QCs, and victims may be related to one another via links. For example, a victim may be associated to an accident in a particular hazard. If these relationships are known, IMSMA users may define these links while reconciling the field report.

Guids

All records in IMSMA have a guid. A guid is a unique value that identifies the record in the IMSMA database. Because the guid is lengthy and comprised of alphanumeric characters, it is typically not a useful value to display in a report. However, the guid is necessary in determining which item records have a direct relationship, and in determining what links exists between item records.

All accidents, hazards, hazard reductions, MREs, QCs, and victims are associated with a single location. The information about the location to which an item record is associated is stored in the location_guid field of the item table and corresponds to the location_guid of the location to which it is associated (Figure 57).

Figure 57. location_guid

Figure 57. location_guid

The location_guid field in the item table contains the guid of the location to which the item record is associated. Figure 58 shows an example of a location and the accident and hazard that are associated to the location. Notice that the location_guid value (1234-1234) in the accident and hazard are identical to the location_guid of the location.

Figure 58. location_guid example

Figure 58. location_guid example

When you create a report on a location and its associated items, you will need to use location.guid = "$P{LocationParamName}" in the query of the sub-report where LocationParamName is the name of the parameter that you created for the location (Figure 59).

Figure 59. Sub-report query for location and associated items

Figure 59. Sub-report query for location and associated items

IMSMA allows users to define relationships between item records of differing types. For example, an accident may be related to a particular hazard. These relationships are referred to as links. The link table contains the links that have been defined between item records. The link table contains the guid of the item from which the link was established (from_guid) and the guid to which the link is being established (to_guid). Figure 60 shows an example of a link that was created from an accident to a hazard. These links are stored in the link table.

Figure 60. Link table example

Figure 60. Link table example

When you create a report that includes linked items, you will need to use links.toGuid = "$P{PrimaryParamName} in the query of the sub-report where PrimaryParamName is the name of the parameter that you created for the primary report item (Figure 61).
