Tabular Displays & AD Hoc Reports
About
An often overlooked aspect of item banking systems is their ability to provide ad hoc information in response to unpredictable requests during the business day. Ad hoc requests occur randomly, and the information needed is impossible to predict in advance. The best a business can wish for is an item banking system whose designers have done everything possible to make responding to ad hoc requests as painless as possible.
Pro!’s designers have foreseen the problem of ad hoc requests and have devised a solution based on the tabular display. A tabular display is a list of items presented in row and column format. Most ad hoc requests concern lists: how many items were written last month, how many items are in rewrite, which ADA forms were used in last year’s administration, etc. By provisioning tabular displays with uncommon and powerful features, Pro! provides the answers to these questions quickly and easily without resorting to screen prints and other older methods.
