Fraser Stream solutions enable you to leverage the power of your ERP
system's existing reporting abilities.

Our technology converts text reports into XML format. From this point your
data can be made available to any number of internal or external users.

Any text report can be converted into Excel or emailed directly to vendors or
suppliers as PDF or XML document. Data can be loaded into SQL databases
hourly for use with Business Intelligence tools such as Cognos.


Overview
Our approach is simple. We utilize the ERP or legacy system's reporting ability rather than connecting to the source database. By avoiding the database altogether, we save a great deal of development time, query analysis, ODBC issues etc… Our technology maps and translates any text file into CSV, XML, HTML, XSLT, and ADO Dataset format. Our output always matches the data source.

Fraser Stream Integration
Fraser Stream Integration (FSI) is the transformation engine that maps then converts text or delimited files into the formats mentioned. Each type of text report must be mapped in order to capture its structural logic. The report need only be mapped once; the mapped settings can then be shared across the company.

FSI can run on a server to meet the data conversion needs of an entire organization. In addition to text reports being converted into CSV format for Excel users, the entire output and transformation process can be automated to populate external databases. Multiple ERP reports can be outputted and converted by Fraser Stream on minute-by-minute basis, the data then can be appended to existing SQL, Access, or Oracle tables.

FSI's Web publishing capability enables documents such as Purchase Orders and Sales Orders to be converted into html format and published directly onto the Web for business partners to view. FSI's Web functionality includes all the necessary tools to enforce secure Web access by document or by individual user.

Fraser Stream Scheduler
Fraser Stream Scheduler provides an easy to use interface for automating the data
transformation process. The user specifies within Scheduler where to look for the text
file or files, how to transform them (which mapped settings to use), into what format to
convert the file (i.e. CSV), and last, where to deposit the newly converted file. In the case
of the latter, this can be an individual's personal folder somewhere on the network.

Fraser Stream Desktop
Fraser Stream Desktop (FSD) is a powerful extension of Fraser Stream Integration.
FSD utilizes Fraser Stream Integration's data mapping and transformation engine.
Geared towards Excel users, with FSD the user simply needs to output their ERP
report to a predefined folder, Fraser Stream does the rest. The report will automatically
open in Excel.

FSD runs on the users PC and once activated, scans a specified folder on the PC
for newly deposited files. The user need only specify which folder to scan and at what interval.
The interval can be every second. If a CSV file is found, it will be automatically opened by Excel.
Desktop prevents the user from having to manually open the Excel file each time the text report is run.
