Successes - Reporting 
All of the effort involved in creating database applications is basically
overhead. The benefit of this effort is the reporting - output - from
the system, like hardcopy reports, electronic files (MS Word, Excel, Powerpoint,
Acrobat PDF files...), email notifications, automated faxes, etc. Here
are a few of the reporting applications we have created:
- Hundreds of reports for all applications created by 21st
- A summary and detail report using SQL Server Reporting Services that allowed quick data analysis, and exporting to Excel, PDF, HTML and more. This report was used by Payroll management.
-
Created a user configurable reporting engine in Crystal Reports 8.0 that allowed users to modify existing reports and add new reports to the system. This system was for a medical software system that was entirely voice driven using Dragon Naturally Speaking as the voice engine. The system was successfully delivered by 21st through version 2.0. Due to the success of this system, the customer completely changed it's mission from a service oriented company to a product sales company (selling this software product) after 21st completed version 2.0.
- 1 commercial reporting utility created in Microsoft
Access. This utility is a custom Wizard Add-In for the use of selecting
and filtering data, printing reports, and exporting the selected data.
This package was marketed by one of our existing clients.
- 1 report engine for a commercial software package
being marketed by a client that allows a user to select a report,
its parameters, when it should run, and where it should be output.
These reports can be set to run daily, weekly, bi-monthly, etc. The
outputs provided are spreadsheet, MS word, all available printers,
fax, and email.
- 1 application used by a brick manufacturing company
to track production, schedules, and inventories on hand. Factory employees
were paid from the information in the reports provided in this system.
