Thanks for that Peter, whilst poking around in the tables late last night I found the values hidden with an XML field, so I have had to resort to hard coding values in my reports atm. I will look at the dev build and see how things work with BIRT. I knwo that Birt will look at an XML file as a data source. >From reading the features link I guess I need to export the XML data first from JTRAC? my requirements are more for managers who don't like doing those sort of things other than clicking on a report, anyway I'll install the current build and have a play around. Can the XML export function have a web service wrapped around it ? i.e. soap, this would definately solve most of my issues as BIRT appears to be able to look at web service data sources.

It is possible to get the kind of report you want by hard coding stuff in the query. You can see an example here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2004890&group_id=1 62983&atid=825942> &aid=2004890&group_id=162983&atid=825942 But I would recommend using the new XML API to generate the reports you want. The new XML output features are only available in the development build and you can find details here: http://www.nabble.com/New-development-build-2.2.0-dev4-available-td18895697. html If you need changes to the XML output to work better with BIRT let me know. Thanks, Peter.

My 2.1.0 JTRAC installation is running from mysql and I can view all tables etc from my eclipse environment and BIRT, so all good so far. The question that I have is to do with the schema. In what table are the custom field labels and the dropdown field values stored? For the life of me I have looked in all tables and can't find any reference to the custom field data. Obviously In the Items table I can see the custom fields and their values, but no other referenced tables.
