Prodigy's various report options allow you to combine text, graphics and trends to help make complex information easy to understand. Easy Report / Crystal SupportProdigy stores information in a Microsoft Access file format. This allows you to use any Access compatible software, such as Crystal Reports, to analyse your data and prepare reports that are laid out exactly as you need them. Prodigy offers the Easy Report facility for producing tabular reports from batch or engineering test data. Easy Report provides a comprehensive range of tools that make it easy to fully customise reports to individual requirements. Easy Report also allows simple and fast configuration of bar and pie charts plus flexible combination of tabular reports & charts on the same page if required. Prodigy also provides pre-formatted reports for certain information including user configurable alarm and signal database reports. To make it easy for you to select the information you want to include on a report, Prodigy provides a versatile file/batch selector. This allows you to select a single batch or perhaps a range of batches that match selected criteria. For instance, you could specify all batches covering the month of July that were run on line 6 using raw material xyz. This filter mechanism can even include SQL (Structured Query Language) enquiries for added flexibility. Prodigy then scans the batch database, selects those records that match the selection criteria and passes them on to the report generation software. Reporting Batch reports. Historic Alarm reports.
