cannot create new report 3.1 beta 5
January 15, 2010, 12:54:05 am
I go to manage report templates, create a new one.  I don't know what to put for class so I just make something up (is that the problem? i have looked for documentation on that and I don't know what it is about).  While it shows up in the templates, when I choose 'create reports from templates', as soon as I click on my template, I get the error:

Could not find the report template. Make sure the report template is registered and / or url is correct.

Have you written a new report or you just want to use an existing report template.

Manage report templates is for writing your own new report and then adding it to the report templates.

Check out http://sandbox.civicrm.org/civicrm/admin/report/register/report_template?action=update&id=168&reset=1
There is a file named CRM/Report/Form/Contact/Summary.php which has that class for that report to run :
http://svn.civicrm.org/civicrm/branches/v3.1/CRM/Report/Form/Contact/Summary.php

So, if you are writing your own report you have to define the class CRM_Report_Form_Contact_MyReport in CRM/Report/Form/Contact/MyReport.php for that link to work.

But if you are simply looking for the latter you might want to look at Create Reports from Templates, create a Report based on your search criteria from an existing template and save it. What you now saved is a report instance and can be seen here :
http://sandbox.civicrm.org/civicrm/admin/report/list?reset=1

okay.  I will take a look at this again this afternoon.  I thought it was something like that.

I need a report that uses custom data fields, so presumably I will have to create my own.

Thanks,
Geoff
