Overview
The Report Writer module is a powerful, flexible, information retrieval
and analysis tool. This sophisticated product combines a powerful
database that has relational capabilities with an easy-to-use custom
report writer. Users determine what data they want and how its
to be conditioned, sorted, and totaled. Information can be printed,
displayed, passed directly to Microsoft Excel®, or exported
to a variety of spreadsheet and database products using flat ASCII
files. Once established, reports can be saved for reuse and shared
among users within a department or company.
Features
Complete Integrated Solution
Written by InterNetworX, the Report Writer was designed to tightly
integrate with the manufacturing and accounting modules. With the
proper security clearance, it allows users to access any information
in the system.
Combine Power with Ease of Use
By separating the database administration functions (such as relational
joins and derives) from the report writer, InterNetworX has created
a system that is extremely flexible, yet can be used by non-technical
users.
The database administrator can limit information available to the
user by utilizing the Database Security module.
Unlimited
Custom Reports
Reports can be created by anyone when needed. The system guides
users through the process, with the available on-line help.
Multiple
Database Views
The data dictionary, a centralized directory that stores all the
information about your database and its structure, allows creation
of special views for report writer purposes. These views can consist
of data elements from any number of related tables, as well as derived
data, which are the result of database calculations.
Ensures
Data Integrity
The Report Writer can operate in a read-only mode, which means the
users cannot change stored data.
Flexible
Presentation of Information
From within a given table view, the user can select the data elements
to be used and the order in which they wish to see them. This subset
of the database can be saved for user, a group of users, or the
entire organization to reuse. The sort order of the selected data
may then be determined.

"If-Then"
Conditioning
By conditioning the data, exception reports are easily generated.
By providing useful information, not just raw data, users can focus
on problems.
Automatic
Formatting
Reports can be printed or displayed. Headings and columns will automatically
be formatted and justified, based on the page size selected.
Export Capabilities
Information can be easily exported directly to Microsoft Excel®
or to other popular spreadsheets, word processing, and database programs.
Graphs and form letters can be created in this fashion.
