Key Highlights
- A leading logistics and supply chain enterprise partnered with OptiSol to modernize its reporting layer by migrating 500+ legacy Oracle Reports to Jasper Reports.
- The internal IT team had strong domain knowledge but lacked the automation tooling necessary to complete a high-volume conversion within a short time frame.
- OptiSol deployed its proprietary iBEAM Jasper Conversion Tool (JCT) to enable a semi-automated, scalable migration aligned with the client’s compliance and delivery goals.
- The phased migration strategy allowed simultaneous development and validation, ensuring zero business disruption throughout the transition.
Problem Statement
01
Manual Effort: The client’s internal team had to manually rebuild each Oracle report, including layouts, queries and business logic. This labor-intensive process slowed progress and increased the likelihood of errors.
02
Legacy Risks: The Oracle-based reporting system was outdated and unsupported by vendors. Relying on it posed operational instability, compliance challenges and scalability limitations, threatening long-term business continuity.
03
Resource Constraint: Although the client's developers possessed domain and technical expertise, they lacked automation tools to manage the scale and complexity of report migration, making the initiative difficult to execute efficiently.
04
Migration Challenge: With a large backlog of reports to modernize and no streamlined execution plan, completing the migration in a short timeframe was impractical without introducing automation.
Solution Overview
01
Tool Deployment: OptiSol licensed its proprietary iBEAM Jasper Conversion Tool (JCT) to the client, enabling them to automate and streamline the conversion of Oracle Reports into Jasper-compatible formats with minimal manual intervention.
02
Pre-Migration Scan: A detailed discovery phase was conducted to assess all existing reports. These were categorized by complexity such as simple, medium, or complex, which helped define the migration roadmap and assign tasks based on report criticality and effort levels.
03
Automated Conversion: Using iBEAM JCT, around 70% of each report’s layout, parameters, SQL queries, and embedded logic were auto converted. This drastically cut down development time and reduced the burden on the internal technical team.
04
Parallel Validation: While the tool performed the core conversion, the client’s internal team simultaneously validated each output and made necessary refinements. This parallel workflow allowed continuous quality control without slowing down the delivery pace.
05
Structured Governance: OptiSol remained closely involved during the engagement, offering governance support, issue resolution strategies and guidance to align all migrated reports with the client’s internal reporting standards and compliance expectations.
Business Impact
About The Project
This case study highlights how OptiSol’s iBEAM Jasper Conversion Tool (JCT) helped a major logistics firm modernize 500+ Oracle Reports within 8 weeks. Faced with the risk of legacy deprecation and a lack of automation tooling, the client turned to OptiSol for a scalable solution. Through the deployment of the iBEAM Jasper Conversion Tool (JCT), the client automated core elements of the conversion while retaining control over business validations. The phased approach ensured rapid execution, cost control and uninterrupted business reporting, making this a standout example of high-efficiency modernization in the enterprise reporting space.
FAQs:
What are the business benefits of migrating from Oracle Reports to Jasper Reports?
Migrating to Jasper Reports reduces licensing costs, eliminates legacy dependencies, improves scalability, and supports modern UI/UX standards, enabling faster report development, better performance, and seamless integration with modern application stacks.
How much of the Oracle Report can actually be auto-converted using iBEAM JCT?
iBEAM JCT automates nearly 70–80% of the Oracle Report conversion, including layouts, data queries, and logic. The remaining effort involves minor adjustments and validations to meet business-specific formatting and behavior
How long does it typically take to migrate reports using iBEAM JCT?
With iBEAM JCT, organizations can migrate 30–50 reports per week depending on complexity, team size, and validation needs. A large-scale migration can be completed in weeks instead of months.
Can this tool handle complex reports with sub reports, graphs, or custom logic?
Yes. iBEAM JCT supports complex Oracle Reports, including nested sub reports, graphs, conditional logic, and reusable modules, enabling automated conversion while preserving advanced visualizations and data presentation standards.
What is the accuracy rate of the automated conversion?
The automated conversion has a 90–95% accuracy rate for standard reports. The remaining gaps are quickly addressed through validation scripts and expert reviews to ensure pixel-perfect, functionally equivalent output.
