Guys,
juts a remark: iReport is probably better than anything we had previously in
OpenERP indeed. That being said, I think the ultimate report engine is
rather BIRT:

Pentaho/iReport and Jasper have some advantages over BIRT like metadata (do
we have a Jasper or Pentaho metadata "provider" for OpenERP or do you plug
it directly on the DB?), but there are even guys now attempting to plug BIRT
over Pentaho metadata and I think this could be great:
