BIRT usage in Mifos
The support for BIRT reports has been there in Mifos for a long time. We are going to remove the use of BIRT reports in coming release.
BIRT reports are mostly going to be converted to Pentaho Reports.
BIRT is embedded in Mifos. In the source tree, look in application/reporting. In the Mifos Web UI, click on "Reports". "Administrative documents" also use BIRT.
