Features

ART is a reporting tool that enables quick deployment of SQL query results. Some of its features include the following.

Quick report creation

Paste the report SQL in the report definition and you have a report ready for users

Interactive reports

Run and accessed via a browser

Scheduled reports

Delivered via email or accessible via a browser

Charts

Generate charts from SQL

Dashboards

Have multiple charts or reports on a single page

Alerts

Send an email when a given condition is satisfied

Parameterized reports

Users can select or input parameters that are then passed to the SQL query

Individualized reports

Dynamically filter query results depending on the user running the report

Dynamic datasources

Choose the report's target database at runtime

Dynamic job recipients

Email reports to a dynamic list of people

Formatted reports

Create pixel perfect reports

Internationalized user interface

With translations available in several languages

Pipelines

You can specify jobs to run in a specific order e.g. run job1, then job3 then job6.

Multiple schedules

You can specify multiple schedules for a job.

Job error notification

You can specify to get an email if an error occurs when running a job. This may be useful for critical jobs where you may need to know if an error occurred for you to take action.

Application error notification

You can specify to get an email when application errors occur. This may be useful to know if the system is performing well or if there are error conditions that need to be addressed.

LDAP authentication

You can specify that users authenticate to the application using credentials in an LDAP server. This may be useful if LDAP is already used for authentication within the organisation and so users may not need to know new passwords for the ART application.

Windows domain authentication

You can specify that users authenticate to the application using credentials of a windows domain. This may be helpful to avoid users having to know a new password for the ART application and instead they can just use the password they use to log in to the windows domain.

Send file to FTP

You can send a report to a number of destinations after a job is run. This may be useful to have backup copies of reports, or to send a report to an external recipient. These destinations include FTP and Network Shares.
