Oracle Discoverer

As the reporting tool of choice for many business analysts, Oracle Discoverer requires extensive setup of the End User Layer to effectively engage reporting capabilities before users can create and modify reports.

Magnitude Noetix Generator significantly reduces the time to implement Oracle Discoverer by automating the process of building and populating Oracle Discoverer with the features and functionality of Magnitude NoetixViews.

Magnitude “powers up” Oracle Discoverer by:

• Significantly reduces the time and effort required to successfully implement Oracle Discoverer.
• Populates Magnitude NoetixViews into Oracle Discoverer by building Discoverer’s End User Layer automatically.
• Incorporates the full functionality of Magnitude NoetixViews, such as leveraging indexed columns to deliver familiar business terms to Discoverer users.
• Extensible capability allows the creation of additional Business Areas for access to data not available in Magnitude NoetixViews.
