WZ ODBC USER TERMINAL
- Do you find it difficult to extract information from your existing product?
- Are you forced to hire an overpriced “software consultant” every time a new reporting requirement is needed?
- Can you easily access information or are there unnecessary restrictions to obtaining important data?
- Are you stuck paying for expensive full usage licensing of an existing product when you only need “view only” access for new users?
- Is your current reporting a simple flat file that is one dimensional?
If so, you need software the will work for you, not against you.
INTRODUCING WZ OUT
The WrightZone ODBC User Terminal core purpose is to extract data from one application and make this data available to one or multiple users for in-depth analysis.
Our WrightZone Weighbridge software has been accepted so well, that we took the best WZ Weighbridge UI features and delivered these features as part of a custom software project self-titled WZ Out. Little did we know or expect how large the demand for this product would and has become.
USE CASES
WZ OUT is ideal in the following situations:
- If you are selling a business but the existing software is not included in the deal, or the new owners have their own preferred software.
- You are migrating to a new software product and you require a point-in-time data back-up that can continue to be referenced as a back-stop.
- You need to run parallel data of what was vs. data that is now.
HOW IT WORKS
WZ Out plugs into you existing application via your Open Database Connectivity (ODBC). Your ODBC is a standard application programming interface (API) for accessing database management systems (DBMS).
When we plug in, we extract and write all tables, all fields, and their content to the WZ Out database.
In the above example we extract data from the Greentree ERP system which is an objected orientated database (and more time consuming than the Standard SQL database) where all the relationships between Financials, Distribution, Job Cost and all Contact Relationship related Modules have been joined in WZ Out.
These joins allow us to create a Navigation Grid for Master records i.e. a Master record for a Customer adding tabs of Invoices and Receipts with the Header down to the line detail of each and every invoice.
We make and create joins that were not otherwise existing or easily accessible within your existing application which works in providing in-depth understanding and knowledge of information you didn’t even know existed.
Our WZ Out application is not business critical as per design it’s an Analytical Toolset for read only usage offering an efficient and fast integrated export of data from any application offering the ODBC API.
Once WZ Out has the data it can be offered to multiple Users via the WZ OUT client and therefore, accessed remotely. WZ Out can also be run locally as stand-alone. The choice is yours because it’s your data. You own it and what you do with it and how you choose to distribute it is the business owner’s choice.
