I am often asked whether JCo allows you to easily create Web (Java)
enabled reports. The short answer is 'no', the long answer is 'yes, with a
little effort'. If you have written your report in ABAP, then you need to
go into the Function Builder, add in and outbound parameters (and
structures and tables), and check the 'RFC Enabled' field under the
Administration tab. By RFC enabling your report, you can use JCo to call
and retrieve data as you would with any RFC. Unfortunately, that is the
only way that R/3 allows you to retrieve reports using JCo. Reporting
typically involves a great deal of metadata, which JCo is unable to work
with at this time.
