Kisco Information Systems announces the immediate availability of Release 13 of their WebReport/i software. With this release, WebReport/i can convert reports from spool files on the IBM i platform to a variety of popular formats and then post them to Google Drive, where Google Docs are kept, for any Google account ID that has been defined to the software. Using this new feature in WebReport/i, customers can convert reports into PDF, RTF, TXT or XLS format and share them over the web through Google Drive. New with Release 13, Kisco has added support for Google Drive folders.

 

Also included in the new release, WebReport/i now includes a report splitting function (bursting) based on report content. Based on a map of the report created by the customer, reports can be dynamically split into segments and sent to different destinations.

 

A new function has been added that allows customers to send any file in the IFS as an email attachment. This function can be used by customers to send a batch of reports together in a single email or to send related files from the IFS that are other than reports.

 

Spool file conversion to Excel (XLS) format have also been enhanced with a new security option. With this option, the contents of the cells created can be password protected so that someone who receives the spreadsheet will have to know the password before then can change the data.

 

WebReport/i still contains its built-in Report Intranet hosted using the IBM i Apache server. The Report Intranet has been enhanced to allow authorized users to delete reports from their Intranet display when they are no longer needed.

 

WebReport/i PDF, is priced at $1,995.00 for a single partition installation on the IBM i family of systems. IBM i OS levels from 6.1 through 7.2 are supported. For companies with several systems, Kisco offers multiple-license discounts. Kisco Information Systems also offers a free 30-day evaluation of the product that can be downloaded with complete software documentation in PDF format from www.kisco.com.
