During this hour we have Looked at WebFOCUS from a layman’s view. Created simple but very powerful DRILL THROUGH reports. Created simple but very powerful BAR and PIE CHART reports.

During this hour we have We have completed all this in under 45 minutes. We have reviewed how to create data adapters and synonyms. We have seen how we may clone a new report with the change of a few lines via the TED editor.

Which really goes to prove that WebFOCUS for the layman is not really a major challenge.
