  • ARCTOOLS Updates JDE Performance Tool

    March 13, 2012 Alex Woodie

    The JD Edwards ERP systems bring specific needs and requirements in the area of data archiving, purging, and performance management. One vendor that has been active in this area is ARCTOOLS. This month, the Denver, Colorado, company is launching version 2.1 of its eponymous suite, which expands the software for use in other applications.

    ARCTOOLS has been used by more than 300 JD Edwards World and EnterpriseOne customers since it was developed by DCSoftware and Whitehouse Consultants in the 1990s. The only other ERP system that the developers have actively targeted is BPCS.

    But with the launch of ARCTOOLS version 2.1 shipped on March 1, the vendor now has an archive and purge solution that will work with any application. This capability is available through a new generic archiving toolset that delivers to other apps the same level of archiving functionality that has been so critical in JD Edwards environments.

    Other new features in version 2.1 include a new Web-based interface, an advanced tools function, and the capability to work out of the box with additional JD Edwards modules, including property management, advanced transportation, and quality modules.

    We live in an era of big data. But when data gets too big, it can be harmful to one’s corporate health, according to ARCTOOLS chief product architect Barry Yelverton. “Untamed data growth can pose a serious threat to a business. ARCTOOLS helps you address this serious issue, improve system performance, and reduce data management costs,” Yelverton says in a press release.

    Get More Out of Your IBM i

    With soaring costs, operational data is more critical than ever. IBM shops need faster, easier ways to distribute IBM applications-based data to users more efficiently, no matter where they are.

    The Problem:

    For Users, IBM Data Can Be Difficult to Get To

    IBM Applications generate reports as spooled files, originally designed to be printed. Often those reports are packed together with so much data it makes them difficult to read. Add to that hardcopy is a pain to distribute. User-friendly formats like Excel and PDF are better, offering sorting, searching, and easy portability but getting IBM reports into these formats can be tricky without the right tools.

    The Solution:

    IBM i Reports can easily be converted to easy to read and share formats like Excel and PDF and Delivered by Email

    Converting IBM i, iSeries, and AS400 reports into Excel and PDF is now a lot easier with SpoolFlex software by DRV Tech.  If you or your users are still doing this manually, think how much time is wasted dragging and reformatting to make a report readable. How much time would be saved if they were automatically formatted correctly and delivered to one or multiple recipients.

    SpoolFlex converts spooled files to Excel and PDF, automatically emailing them, and saving copies to network shared folders. SpoolFlex converts complex reports to Excel, removing unwanted headers, splitting large reports out for individual recipients, and delivering to users whether they are at the office or working from home.

    Watch our 2-minute video and see DRV’s powerful SpoolFlex software can solve your file conversion challenges.
