Factory Studio has the capability to generate reports on the fly. This can even be done on client displays or for saving in files like XPS, HTML, Unicode, ASCII, and PDF.
These reports can have multiple graphical components like tables, tags, grids, trends, etc. All of these components have the ability to update data when a report is generated. This provides users with the most up-to-date data in their reports.
