b/S reporting software

b/S report software definition

b/S (browser/server, browser/server mode) is also called B/s structure, is the web after the rise of a network structure model. b/S mode is from the beginning of the C/s (client/server, client/server) mode, the user interface is completely through the WWW browser implementation, part of the transaction logic in the front-end implementation, but the main transaction logic in the server-side implementation. The browser interacts with the database through the Web Server. b/S report software, in short, is the B/s structure of users online viewing, editing, saving, output of the report software.

b/S report software features

The initial management information system was basically developed with the C/S model, but with the wide application of Internet technology, the management information system gradually began to change from the S/C mode to B/S mode.

The biggest advantage of B/s reporting software is the simple operation and maintenance, it can realize different personnel, from different locations, with different access methods (such as Internet/intranet,lan, WAN, etc.) access and operation of common data. Because the structure no longer requires dedicated client software, the technical maintenance staff can get rid of the heavy installation, configuration and upgrade maintenance work, put the main focus on the server program update work. At the same time, the use of Web browser as a client software, user-friendly interface, the newly developed system does not require users to learn from scratch every time.

However, due to the particularity of B/S mode, the Excel report printing function which is easy to realize in C/s mode becomes a difficult point under B/s, and the printing operation is more complicated. Therefore, the large data volume business and the focus on the output of the report, you can consider using the C/s structure to ensure efficiency and printing convenience.

b/S report software functions

Rich report styles. b/S report software in the design support Excel tables, Word documents and other styles, but also have a number of functions to meet user needs, such as multi-level grouping, data perspective, graphic mixed, set/Direct printing, report export.

Data is visualized in a variety of ways. Data display in the visual and accurate standards more and more attention, B/s report software has a variety of data display methods: charts, maps, conditional formatting, data warning, blur diagram, data bar, signal lights and so on.

Interactive data analysis. At present, data analysis provides a variety of ways such as drilling, deepening, filtering, sequencing, dynamic tables, chart linkage, table linkage, graph linkage, directory jump, etc., to meet a variety of interactive needs.

Multi-data source support. b/s reporting software supports data source types such as cloud databases, Oracle, SAP, Access, files, and Json, and can combine data from different sources in a report design, providing only raw detail, without the need to summarize data by SQL or encoding.

b/s reporting software development tools

One of the main problems in the development of WEB systems is browser compatibility, where developers need to write different front-end code based on different browsers and versions, and the end user must install the specified browser to get a better product experience.

At present, the development of B/s report software tools each has its own characteristics, and the Grape City report is the perfect cross-browser Web report compatibility, by fully encapsulating the differences between browsers, developers do not need to write any code for browser differences, End users can also get a consistent report usage experience across browsers.
