+These are sensible default reports to give a good out-of-the-box

+define the default reports so that they include an external
+report definition as follows:
+
+include reports.tji
+
+These default are made to work with tj3.  If you are targeting
+TaskJuggler 2.4 (see `org-taskjuggler-target-version') please
+change these defaults to something like the following:
