Xactions with same database parameters

[radzar]

Hello
I'm working with a lot of xactions which connects to the same database.
My question is : Should I to specify for every xaction, the database parameters : url, driver, username ,password...
How can i do to not having to enter the same parameters again and again?
Any help is appreciated, Thanks

If you are running a Pentaho server just select JNDI and add the corresponding JNDI name to what you are running on the server then the xaction will automatically know which database you are talking about.
