Data Pack 2.0 brings you these innovative capabilities

1. Use Drag and Drop to easily visualize your data with Quick Chart

For any Data Set, users can explore and visualize intuitively ~~ Drag and Drop the fields of interest to the X and Y axes, and select from various Aggregations (Sum, Average, Min, Max, etc) and Chart Types (pie, bar, line, etc).  It’s never been so inexpensive and easy to open data transparency securely to your audiences!

2. Within the same Quick Chart interface, you also gain these additional tools

  • Run your selections to a Query
  • Open the Query in Query Manager to edit it
  • Run your selections to Pivot Grid
  • Print your chart
  • View or download the raw data underlying the chart
  • View the SQL that generates the chart

We know you want the shortest pathway to your data, so we’ve given you a one-page Dashboard experience, to quickly visualize and explore the data you need.

3. Deploy your own Data Sets securely to your Users

What’s a Data Set?  Any PeopleSoft Table or View, whether delivered or custom.  But Data Sets can also be Queries!   By simply building a Query, you can create specialized sets of data that are useful to certain users, and deploy them immediately and securely.

In an easy setup page, you will

  • identify your Data Set,
  • give it a user-friendly Long Description
  • and identify the Security Roles for who can access it
