As an alternative you can use a plugin to make this process much easier. Intelligent Reports lets you design your template in Microsoft Word directly, and then easily point and click to choose what data goes where in the document without any coding involved. You also have the benefit of not needing to maintain a custom installation of JIRA, and avoiding breakages when you want to upgrade. The small cost of the plugin could save a lot of engineering time.

Hi,

your able to Generate the report in excel sheet or word document. or you can use Servelet to do same.

Report.class file or where you have defined your business logic there you need to put the date.

e.g.

map mp=new map();

mp.put("dateobj",date.now());

and you can use the map object to velocity.

where you can simply use $dateobj you can use current date.
