Back to Package

Spreadsheets, its something so many of us rely on them every day for reviewing and understanding our business. The question is, how do you create those Spreadsheets ?  Using some simple building blocks, you can automate the extraction of data and the building of a spreadsheet on your IBM i (yes... your IBM i) with out adding ANY additional software. Its all on your system already!   In this session we will show you a progression of using SQL to build a data set (either from Db2, or IBM i Service) using ACS to build a spreadsheet, show how to automate that process so its happens every day at a set time, and lastly email that spreadsheet to a list of users.   This can all be done on your IBM i today!
