Adding an EnterpriseItem bean

The view.jsp page will be used to render a report to users. The source of the report is obtained from the EnterpriseItem bean.

To add an EnterpriseItem bean

1. Open the view.jsp page.
2. Switch to the J2EE perspective.
3. Open the Enterprise Repository view. See Displaying the Enterprise Repository view for more information.
4. Open a connection to your BusinessObjects Enterprise system. See Opening a new connection for more information.
5. Drag a report from the Enterprise Repository view onto the view.jsp page.

The New EnterpriseItem dialog box opens.

6. In the Identity field, select identy which is the identity bean that you created earlier.
7. Select the “Use Latest Instance” check box. We will use the latest instance of the report, if it exists. If no previous instance of the report exists, then the report will be run again.
8. Click Finish.
9. Save view.jsp.

The EnterpriseItem bean is created. You can see it in the Page Data view. To open the Page Data view, click Window > Show View > Other > Web > Page Data.
