Data Source Configuration

1. Right click on any report in the Reports panel on the right hand side and click on “Data Sources…”

2. This will pull up the list of data source name and type used by the report set. Select the “ITM” data source and click “Edit”:

3. This will display the Data Source Edit dialogue. You will need to provide a recognisable “Display Name”, set the Database “User ID” to “itmuser”, with corresponding “Password”.

Change the “JDBC URL” so the domain/IP part matches your own TDW server. Provide a descriptive comment if desired to replace the default “undefined”, and then press “Save”:

Note: You do not need to repeat this step for the other reports. Once defined via any report it is changed for all.
