Thanks Taher,
I agree on Birt being useful in general, and in OFBiz certainly (Jacopo at
least thinks it could be better implemented, that's another topic).
My question was more is it useful for existing accounting reports? Jacopo seems to say that there were already FOP implementations what went
overridden, why? Do we need Birt there?

Hi Jacques,
I already provided an answer earlier in this thread while you were typing
the question.

Can we say that the Birt reports are better? Do they always work (I got
some issues there)
No, I wouldn't say that (of course you are free to think otherwise, it is
just the *we* part that I disagree with).
OK to sum up, why do we have Birt there then? (question not specifically
intended to you Jacopo)
Also just tried http://demo-stable-ofbiz.apache.org/accounting/control/
FinancialSummaryReportOptions?organizationPartyId=Company where Birt is
not and all reports fail, normal?
I am not sure I understand... I got the same errors with or without Birt:
the request maps are not defined; I don't see how this bug fits into this
conversation.
Same with trunk demo, OK to be revisited :/
But for example, the balance sheet report:
https://localhost:8443/accounting/control/BalanceSheet?
organizationPartyId=Company
is not a Birt report and works well; however the if you click on the
"Export as pdf" button you get an error when Birt is active while it works
when Birt is inactive.
So again, why do we have Birt there then? (question not specifically
intended to you Jacopo)

The accounting component has financial reports implemented as screen
widgets (html/pdf/csv) that the Birt component overrides with different
ones implemented with Birt.
This is actually one example about a specialpurpose component that is
overriding/hiding functionality that is already provided by the
applications with a different one: you can't see them when Birt is enabled.

Don't we also have dependencies on birt? Regarding reporting in
