Commercial release of ProMark 2.80.01 - ProReport II

The much anticipated ProReport II is ready!

"The new software is very user friendly and its additional functionality enabling reports to be scheduled, converted into Word, pdf or Excel documents and subsequent direct e-mailing of reports is excellent. This will provide Department Managers with new opportunities to analyse their data in a way that has not been available before. I look forward to being part of its continuing development." This is a quote from Julie Doherty, System Administrator from Polyflor in UK, who has tested ProReport II.

Mark Information is very proud to announce the release of our new reporting tool ProReport II. This is a brand new product based on our experience from the existing product ProReport but with increased functionality that will enhance our customer's ability to share real time information, and make decisions based on real time facts. In short: The benefits from using ProMark will increase!

The major part of this ProMark Commercial Release 2.80.01 is therefore the new functionality in ProReport II.

ProReport II is designed as an ”application server” module which means that data search and generation of reports takes place on the server and not directly on the client PC. So only the report itself is sent over the network instead of all the data on which the report is based.

Sample report from ProReport II

ProReport II reports directly on the data present in ProMark so there are no limitations regarding data size.

  • ProReport II is based on a brand new and modern base technology ensuring both customers and Mark Information a solid future platform including a series of advantages.
  • With ProReport II reporting is based on ’fresh’ data giving true real-time reflections of registered data, and a higher quality in the decision-making process.
  • Reports can be exported to PDF, Word as well as Excel for presentation, distribution and further analysing. HTML formats will be offered in future versions of the product.
  • ProReport II contains a long series of new and improved possibilities for user defined set-up and selection, including formatting, calculation and sorting.
  • Through a modern base technology, you get a higher degree of security and elimination of limitations in file sizes on reporting data.
  • The same report can be generated by several users at a time without any risk og data conflict.

Conversion from ProReport to ProReport II

ProReport II can co-exist with the present ProReport, meaning that there is no hard-and-fast boundary for existing customers in their conversion process to the new reporting tool.

We have strived to make the conversion from ProReport to ProReport II as simple as possible. The majority of the standard reports in ProReport have been transferred to the new format.

ProReport II is free of charge for existing ProReport customers with a valid maintenance agreement until the end of 2006 until which time support and corrections to the present ProReport will still be offered.
