Data Access Studio™

Built from the ground up, Data Access Studio is a tool that provides powerful reporting over JD Edwards data.  Using its graphical interface, you can accomplish sophisticated tasks with ease:

  • Advanced data queries

  • Sorting, Grouping, Totaling

  • Report generation and printing

  • Ability to view ODBC and OLE DB data (from legacy systems and non-JD Edwards tables)

  • Ability to snapshot data and compare to any environment

All this and more in a completely visual-based environment.  No programming is required!

General Capabilities

  • You can open JD Edwards tables and business views, Published reports, OLE DB/ODBC data, and Snapshot data

  • Progress bar shows percentage of table loaded

  • Navigation controls show which row is selected and allows you to navigate through the data

  • Filter boxes above each column filter as you type in values - letting you zero-in on the data

  • Advanced filtering

    • List of values

    • Ranges

    • Wildcards

    • Composite queries

    • Distinct values

  • You can change the appearance of all grids: colors, fonts, lines, column headings, etc.

  • All grids provide export and printing

Grouping and Totaling

  • Create level breaks visually

  • Group on any combination of columns

  • Adding group and grand totals is a snap 

Column Operations

  • Sort, group, hide/show columns 

  • Select the column caption as: Alias, SQL Name, Long Name, Two-row description, or your own caption 

  • Provide custom numeric and date formats 

  • Auto-size your columns with the Best Fit operations

Reports and Printing

  • Create business views on-the-fly

  • Publish reports to share with other users

  • Publish to all, to a group, or to specific users

  • Print the contents of all grids

  • Print preview, zoom in/out, header/footers

Security
  • Uses standard OneWorld security -- column, row, and table-triggers

  • Data Access Studio application level security.

Calculations

You can derive useful data on your grid in real-time, including:

  • Mathematical operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc.)
  • String operations (concatenation, substring, formatting, etc.)
  • Database table lookup
  • Date operations
  • and more

Some advantages of Calculation Columns are:

  • Ability to see each calculation as you design--debug as you design
  • Ability to hide intermediate calculations from the visible report columns
  • Ability to form simple joins to other tables
  • The Calculation Column behaves just like any other database column -- i.e., you can sort, group, summarize, etc.

Performance Management Plus™

You've upgraded your hardware, database, and network; yet you still have EnterpriseOne performance problems.  What is the next step?  Performance Management Plus.

With the Performance Management Plus Toolset (PMP), you can control your EnterpriseOne performance problems no matter how complex your system.  PMP allows you to not only identify problems and fix them; but also to ensure that your processes continue to run smoothly over time despite system changes.

How does this work?  Simply by providing tools that empower you to:

  • Analyze

  • Solve

  • Test

Analyze. No matter how complex your system, you need to be able to identify the causes of bad performance.  Performance Management Plus real-time performance monitor gives you precisely this ability.  The Performance monitor measures and records the performance of your production systems.  You will immediately be able to identify critical paths and likely causes.  Furthermore, as your system evolves over time, you will be able to compare how the system performs compared to past versions.  This powerful system analysis puts you in control of what your system is doing!

Solve. Once you have identified the critical paths and possible causes, you will need to have tools to help you solve the performance problems.  Performance Management Plus toolset gives you two powerful ways to solve common system performance problems:

  • Better SQL

  • Better Caching

When your performance problems result from poor database queries, better SQL will help tremendously.  The Performance Manager Plus Data Access APIs give your developers the capability of creating better SQL statements than is otherwise possible in EnterpriseOne.  You can create better SQL statements that let the database do the work that it should.

When your performance problems result from poor redundancy management, better caching can be the solution.  For instance, if you repeatedly fetch the same set of rows from the database, it would be much better to cache the rows and access the redundant information from memory.  This will improve both database and network performance.

Test.  Once you have implemented your solutions, you can test the changes with the performance monitor.  The monitor will show how much you have improved things.  Also, you may see new critical paths that will require additional solutions.  Over time, you will cycle through this methodology to achieve ongoing performance.

Please contact us to set up a demonstration.
