[Detail]
Full featured conventional reporting tool seamlessly integrated with the Agile Platform
Agile Reporting Services™ is seamlessly integrated with your Agile Platform through three main components: Report Studio – a Windows Forms application where charts and reports are designed; Report Center - an OutSystems web application where charts and reports are stored and managed; and Reporting Widgets – a set of web blocks to embed charts and reports in your existing OutSystems applications.
Feature List
Interactive Widgets
Reporting Widgets allow you to embed powerful reports in existing OutSystems web or mobile applications, just by dragging these elements as web blocks. Widgets like Report Viewer, Chart Viewer and MyReports™ are available out-of-the-box. All reports can be downloaded as PDF, Excel and Image files.
Asynchronous Reporting
Huge datasets can be tackled with scheduled reports, therefore: heavy processing of large amount of data can be scheduled at regular intervals so that business users don’t have to wait for their reports.
Business Domains
Reports and charts can be classified by business domains in Report Center and easily integrated with access control information through User Role association.
Security and Access Control
The Platform’s security is fully inherited assuring that you have only access to the data you are allowed to. From an end user perspective reports visibility depends on your configured user and role permissions.
Centralized Management
Report Center allows you to manage and monitor all your reports from a single centralized web console, whose user credentials are integrated with Service Center.
1-Click Deploy™
New reports or new versions are automatically validated and deployed with zero downtime of your applications. This is done with a single click in Report Studio or Report Center. Once deployed, a new version is automatically created, allowing for tracking and quick rollback of changes. Multiple reports can be deployed in different environments in a single step, through Report Center built-in packaging.
Performance Monitoring
Running reports can be monitored in real-time to detect and fine tune performance issues. Also, at design time, users are presented with performance improvement suggestions and hints.
Change Management
Changes on your applications Entities are automatically detected and reflected on related reports. Whenever a breaking change occurs, a detailed impact analysis is presented to assist you on the report update.
Zero-Impact Adoption™
Agile Reporting Services is a usercentric tool that requires little training. You can start spreading reports and charts within your OutSystems applications without advanced skills on SQL programming and on OutSystems technology as well. Therefore, non technical users can now create powerful reports in a 100% visual environment, without having to learn SQL and even OutSystems itself.
