When creating an ActuateOne for e.Reports data source in a BIRT report to connect to an e.report, you specify the iServer volume that contains the ROI files. You specify iServer connection properties and the name of the iServer volume. Specify the use of a trusted connection to improve performance. As you edit the data source and the data set, a trusted connection uses the same session to communicate with the iServer. A non-trusted connection uses the specified credentials to log in to the iServer for each communication.
