That link is old. You might want to look at a more updated version

http://doc.tryton.org/4.2/trytond/doc/topics/reports/index.html

This one (4.2) matches the Tryton version for the upcoming GNU Health
3.2

Please take a look at the module "health_reporting". There you have
different types of reports, and ways of building them.

From basic reports that don't need coding, just using ODT, to more
complex scenarios (like the summary report), that builds on the fly the
population pyramid.

By the way, starting Health 3.2, the we want to move the analytic
processing to the GNU Health Information server (Thalamus / MongoDB).
This will take off the load from Tryton, which will serve more the
transactional, operational tasks. You will still do reporting at Tryton
level, but more focused on the current instance / health facility, and
little aggregation.

This is work in progress, but it's good to keep it in mind :)

Hope this helps

Kind regards,
