One of the key goals of BIRT is to support data access for a number of different data sources for reporting. Given the widespread popularity of web services, this project enhances the XML ODA driver to include the capability to treat web services as a data source. It also allows the report developer to specify data source parameters in order to filter the data that is fetched.
