You have a stand-alone installation of JDEdwards, version 8.11, 8.12 or 9.0. The web interface works pretty seamlessly and runs most of the applications. Except reports. If a report needs to be executed, it can’t be done from the web interface. Instead you have to jump on your fat client, enter BV on the fast path, and enter the desired report. This works, but is clunky and does not provide the look/feel of how reports get executed via the web interface. Is there a way to execute reports from within the web interface?

And here is a more detailed write-up with step-by-step instructions and print screens.
From your PC, go to the command line prompt and execute command HOSTNAME. Note that your results will be different than this print screen: In this example, the hostname returns a value of ‘vmware-win-xp’.
From the fat client’s fast path, execute P986115. Select (local) and click on Select:
Again, select LOCAL and click Select:
On the following screen, change the Logical Server Name to the value returned by the hostname command. Also, change the Server Map Data Source Name to ‘System Local’:
Click OK to update.
Exit EnterpriseOne. Re-start Solution Explorer.
From the fat client’s fast path, execute P98616. Select the last button to Define Default Printer:
Click the Add button:
Fill-in the fields as in the screen shot below and click OK:
Exit EnterpriseOne.
Reboot PC.
Re-start Solution Explorer. You should now be able to execute reports from within the web interface.
