WebFOCUS Quick Data: A Robust Excel Add-In

In most businesses, users prefer to conduct their analyses using Microsoft Excel. But, that approach can limit access to enterprise data sources, and compromise data integrity and consistency.

How can you enable your business users to continue to work in a comfortable environment, while ensuring access to timely, complete, and correct information from any enterprise system?

WebFOCUS Quick Data offers your Excel users broader and more powerful business intelligence capabilities than ever before. This robust Excel add-in seamlessly connects Excel directly to the WebFOCUS reporting engine. Excel reports can then be quickly and easily built using virtually any enterprise information – from over 300+ data sources in all. So users can spend less time keying and re-keying data into reports, and more time analyzing the information needed for effective decision-making.

All WebFOCUS Quick Data reports are dynamically updated each time they are opened - or more frequently based on user requests - so the information required for mission-critical business analysis is accurate and up-to-date at all times.

With WebFOCUS Quick Data, users can:

• Create new reports and queries from any enterprise information
• Combine multiple reports into a single worksheet.
• Rapidly generate PivotTables
• Burst data into multiple worksheets within a workbook
• Refresh data in any server-based Excel application or template

Built with the power of WebFOCUS' industry-leading Excel integration capabilities, and fully integrated with Excel Query, WebFOCUS Quick Data also offers:

• Automatic creation of named ranges
• Presentation of computations and totals as native Excel formulas
• Output styling, data filtering, and drill-down capabilities
• Advanced security, including full control over spreadsheet access rights, as well as the ability to lock all or specific cells populated by WebFOCUS, and password-protect entire worksheets
