IBS Windows Database Provides
Windows Front-End for Client Data

IBS' Windows Database provides complete access to IBS data in a Windows environment, for look-up, query, reporting and export purposes.

Typically, the strengths of a large-scale application like IBS lie in the integrity, audit-ability and security of the data. The issue of allowing the user unrestricted access to the live data is sensitive in that it can put data integrity and security at risk. Still, users want the ability to manipulate data and design reports in their own, customizable style.

The Window's Database gives clients the "best of both worlds."

• It is an IBS-sponsored product that provides a Windows front-end to the data.
• Users enjoy the benefits of IBS' large-scale application and at the same time can push a single button to refresh a copy of their database onto the network.
• The network version is a read-only copy — there is no opportunity for users to accidentally change live data.
• It delivers the data product to the user employing an open-industry standard that virtually any report writer can access.
• The Windows Database is user friendly. Even people who are not trained specifically to use the IBS system can easily learn to look up data.
• Third-party integration engine with Crystal Reports.
