IQ/Objects (Computer Associates Eureka:Reporter)
Intuitive Customized Report Development
IQ/Objects
is a client-based, desktop writing tool that allows
customized production reports to be developed through a
visual design interface. This simple but powerful design
environment, when combined with Elite's comprehensive
data warehousing solutions, dramatically reduces the
amount of time it takes to build custom designed
reports. The reports can have a spreadsheet-like
interface, or the reports can be "free form,"
allowing almost unlimited formatting capabilities such
as graphs, drill-down and cross-tabs, and are available
in a wide variety of output formats, including
Web-based. With the simple, easy-to-use interface, no
programming background is required.
