Does Promax provide easy access to databases for adhoc enquiry, report writer and interfaces with office automation products?
The Promax PX solution is based on a Microsoft SQL+ DB and therefore allows data to be easily extracted through Microsoft Office tools like Excel or other third party report writer tools.
Promax is a transaction tool and the standard DB that is used by the tool stores the information in a detailed, date based format. The native DB structure is not conducive to efficient reporting or data interrogation.
To assist in the reporting and data analysis process we also offer the AnalytX cube – which translates the data into an OLAP Cube that allow easier and more flexible reporting.
Additionally, Promax also offers the Analytx module for the reporting and analysis of data. This also includes a series of predefined reports and offers dashboard functionality.
