OpenText Report & Output Management Interface for OpenText Content Server

Make OpenText Content Server the single point of access for all report information

The Report & Output Management module allows output generated from packaged applications like Oracle® E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft®, and SAP®, as well as custom, mainframe, or legacy applications, to be incorporated into your ECM Content Server value proposition and strategies.

OpenText Report & Output Management is unique in its ability to capture and ingest report output generated from “legacy” mainframes, ERP and other large batch scheduled jobs and then seamlessly exposes the report information within OpenText Content Server. Businesses will extend the content sources and data types available to their ECM strategies while users are provided a single user experience when searching or viewing mixed content.

With the Report & Output Management module, batch reports such as financial, inventory, invoice and statements are now able to be ingested and accessible by repositories where such formats are not natively supported. Users now have the capability to search and access these semi-structured reports directly from the Content Server. Online report viewing capabilities include annotations, search and sub-reporting, selective printing, extraction, hyperlink access to reports, drill down, page-level security, and more.

OpenText Content Server acts as the central repository and is the foundation for the OpenText ECM Suite. By exposing reports within Content Server, report content can now participate in your ECM strategies giving you the ability to leverage the library of modules available in the OpenText ECM Suite so you can manage your report information throughout its lifecycle, improving business productivity while controlling costs and mitigating risks.
