RG Solutions® Features - Report Design

Reporting

The primary purpose of

reporting is the

communication of

information to interested

stakeholders. RG

Solutions® provides a

robust set of options for

the development and

delivery of the pertinent

business information.

Exporting

There are many cases

where the information from

RG Solutions® is used for

other venues, applications,

and data collection. The

report design environment

allows for the development

of reports that can deliver

delimited files, html output,

or other mediums that can

be used for data extension

in the user environment.

Output

The result of the report

design is the ability to

deliver information in some

form. RG Solutions®

processing allows for the

reports to be created in

native mode or within a pdf

(as a publication of

reports). Using attributes

and parameters allows for

dynamic report execution

and extensive data support

to the business.

Report Design

The report mechanism is the primary vehicle for the communication of information outside of RG Solutions®. The processing has a WYSIWYG designer that is used for the development of reports and publication. Resulting reports can be viewed internally, published manually or automatically, or can copied and edited as new reports within a User Collection.
Major Data Features
Chart	This is a report that contains information presented in the form a simple or complex chart. The user has extensive options for the creation of charts.
List	This is a report that contains item information about a series of records. Each row in the list represents a single record entry (summary or container data).
Group	This type of report contains item information about data this split into row and column elements. It can add values to the reported fields for duplicate incoming records. This report allows for the summarization and comparison of similar items.
Table	This is a report that contains item information about a single record. While this report can be created for Detail Information, it is more commonly used for Summary Information.
Publication	A publication is a compendium of reports. The output of the processing can either be the native report output, or the compilation of all the reports into a single pdf.
Major Processing Capabilities
WYSIWYG Design	Report design is done using a WYSIWYG design environment. If the report design is being done from within a processing entity, then the report design will use live data if it is available.
Data Scope	Can span multiple data sets and allows for the combining of different days, week, repositories, services, etc. The scope is dynamic and limits on the data selection can be imposed. Incoming records can be selected and filter to inclusion.
Parameters	The parameters are used to control the report processing in a simplified manner. The parameters are built into the report design and allows for a single report to produce several different outputs.
Dynamic Attributes	Can detect locations in the text that requires the insertion of attribute information that is associated with the processing entity. There is a large number of attributes that can be used for the formatting of dynamic information.
Charting Options	The chart processing provides for 2D/3D formats, 63 chart styles, 54 math functions, 46 chart tools, themes, 6 types of axis definitions, 4 types of titles, and dynamic legends and panels, and many more options.
Custom Code	The processing allows for the user to include custom code for the formation of data or processing control. The processing uses a C++ dialog editor for its custom code design.
Output Types	Chart: PDF, Printer, Bitmap, Flex (Flash), GIF, JPEG, Meta File, PCX, PNG, Post Script, SVG, VML (HTML), VRML 3D, and XAML. Others: Delimited Spreadsheet, Delimited Text, HTML, PDF, and Printer type output.
Report Viewing	The processing has the ability to create and view the reports internally as part of the Data Viewing. The viewed reports can be modified and created as part of the viewing process.
Post Create Processing	The processing has the ability to initiate an independent task that is started when a report has been created and is stored on disk.
