Web reports
The Embrace Report Server offers a simple and dynamic web reporting environment. The report writer offers 3 types of reporting format.
- XML --> XSL --> Output
- XML --> XSL --> FOP --> Output
- Jasper XML reports --> Output
The output can be in a number of formats:
- XML
- CSV
- HTML
- ...
Simply write your reports in any simple text editor and upload the report to the reporting server via your web-browser. This can all be done in real time. If you use Jasper Reports then you can take advantage of the many Jasper report writers that are available for developing a report before uploading to the report server, for example JasperAssistant and iReport designer
Current features include...
- User authentication built in
- Server resource management. if someone is running the same report then only one instance of the report will run but each user will see the same report results. This saves on server resources
- Dynamic report deployment. The reports are compiled on the server as and when any changes are uploaded
- Report history. Previous user report results are stored for future lookup
- Report auto input templates. This allows for any report to have any number of input templates assigned so that you can auto set values for each report run. This cuts down on the number of reports to develop when all you might need is a single report with different values for different reporting criteria
- Charting and graphing
Soon to be released
- Scheduled report runs. This will also have the option to email the report result
- Server side printing
- User report dashboards. Any number of dashboards can be created which view specific reports. For instance you could have a dashboard for the current workload on the shopfloor or the current accounting period.
- All of the above will also have a full role management so that only specific reports/dashboards can be used by specified users
Tailor the look and feel of the report writer
The report browser interface is based on w3c standards using CSS so as a reseller or company you can tailor the look and feel to just how you want it to look.
Developers can easily sit the report server behind a firewall and upload reports to a static web server for periodic reports to be viewed on a set period basis. For live reporting you can easily sit a development server behind a firewall which can serve multiple clustered servers so that you can easily scale out depending on your needs
