New Pulse Reporting Tool

Pulse provides a wide variety of client facing and administrative reports, but what do you do when they don’t meet your specific requirements? Some users approach Pulse and ask for the relevant changes or enhancements to be made, while others with experience of Crystal Reports will make their own changes, although thereafter the amended reports will fall outside of the support agreement with Pulse.

This approach works well, so long as the data is available in the standard Pulse engines, but when it is not, the only solution to date has been for Pulse to undertake the requested enhancements. However, Pulse has now developed a new Oracle Reporting module, which enables its users to access any data in the system for the purpose of reporting.

The Oracle Reporting module allows you the user to define and modify the available Oracle report engines in Pulse so that you can have complete control and flexibility over the data that can be extracted, manipulated and used to populate your reports. You now have the ability to create and change portfolio and client ad-hoc reports and any admin report you wish to satisfy any business or administrative need. This module will suit clients that write their own reports, and often request enhancements to existing Pulse engines. Users will require knowledge of SQL, while training in the extraction of data is provided with the module.
