Schedule reports export

Schedule reports export

• Dynamic report scheduling with pre-defined prompt and filter values• Simultaneous report generation on several SAP BusinessObjects setups (version, SP)• Automate exports to make non-regression testing a routine task• Schedule XML export of your reports for optimum comparison• Simple and effective scheduling management for recurring exports

Outputs comparison

Outputs comparison

• Effective report data comparison• Image comparison (pixels, colors) using several precision levels• Comparison of seemingly identical reports (change control)• Report comparison across versions or service packs for migration validation• Cross-CMS report comparison for development validation• Gather comparison results into a detailed report and focus efforts on regressing reports• Visually highlight report regressions• Maintain accuracy and consistency of SAP BusinessObjects reports

Optimize migration

• Ability to visually compare and qualify reports across versions, and validate migrations• Multiple non-regression tests allowing users to highlight differences in reports• Qualify all your reports rather than relying on sample/partial qualification• Seamless, automated qualification (no impact on users)• Qualify developments in new projects or new versions• Enforce continuous change control on new versions (calculation engine changes, databases upgrade, universes, OS, etc.)

Optimize migration

Schedule reports export

Effective and synthetic binding and comparison of your report data (including images)

Interoperable extraction and scheduling (from XIR2 to BI4)

Outputs comparison

Optimize migrations

Detection of matching reports to exclude from migration troubleshooting

Detection of non-matching report output. Point-out inconsistencies or errors (new SP, universe update, etc.)

Opening and checking reports is not even required to find out potential regressions

Use case

BI4.1 SP6 and Sybase upgrade

Swiss bank

In the course of the 360Bind evaluation period, new BI4.1 SP6 bugs + regressions due to Sybase DB upgrade were found. Risk management was included in the loop/process and permanent non-regression testing was enforced. Helped end-users save time when troubleshooting the BO platform, fixing bugs and dealing with technical regressions. 100% Regression detection accuracy rate. From Risk Control’s perspective, such a tool would significantly increase the efficiency and reduce the operational risk of Risk Control’s testing of BI reports during e.g. BI, DB, server upgrades. Given the very positive feedback of the testing of the tool, Risk Control supported the selection and purchase of such a tool.
