Matt, I started Kettle today. I am having trouble assuring distinct records are filtered into my table. The client’s data has replicated rows. Thanks for any insight you can pass along.

A bit late to comment on this post I guess, but I just started to get serious with Pentaho two weeks ago.

I would like to see the Kettle parameter injection tip first since this is the start of the process in my case (after all, getting the data into the database is a pre-requisite for everything else, isn’t it?).

Hi Nicholas, I’d like to know how to pass parameters between a “main” report and a subreport. I’ve already search the web and the solutions show in the wiki http://wiki.pentaho.org/display/Reporting does not work with me.

I would really really like to see some tips or examples as to how to ‘set’ and ‘pass’ a parameter in report designer.

If there is already a link available to this, i would appreciate if you could guide me to it.

Thanks so much,
Falguni

Nick,

Great list! I think the Portable ETL would be great. Kettle is fairly straight forward if you have used OWB, Informatica or DTS, but there is always power hiding under the hood. We are using the Pentaho Platform for a very large Federal Government project. Kettle is going to be a key component since we are dealing with XML, Excel, DB, and flat files.

Parameters for reports is also a great topic. It is discussed fairly heavily in the forums and is a pretty important topic once you get past the basics of a static report.

Another topic (just to add to the list) is using the Pentaho workflow services. XActions provide some simple event driven workflow, and Shark provides a more robust environment. There is so little on this topic, and it really demands some attention. I am a bit selfish since these are going to be keys to our project, so any information is welcome.

If you are ever looking for some help with tips, etc. Let me know. We are getting pretty good at Kettle and Mondrian.

Bill

I would be very interested in the the first two as well, especially Mondrian: Star Schema to OLAP cubes.
