About Pegasus XRL for Opera 3 SQL SE

Pegasus XRL links financial information in Opera 3 SQL SE with Microsoft Excel, allowing Opera 3 SQL SE data to be viewed and manipulated within Microsoft Excel using features installed with Pegasus XRL.

Summary and detailed reports can be designed and styled to exact requirements using the Report Designer. Summary or detailed reports are created using the XRL Report Wizard.

Pegasus XRL also provides the ability to drilldown to the underlying transactions and link cells dynamically to Opera 3, ensuring the latest information is displayed.

Cube Analysis enables you to analyse data by viewing it from various perspectives using row (x-axis), column (y-axis), and slicer (z-axis).

Excel workbooks can be automated using macros created using the Pegasus XRL Macro Builder, charted and distributed as PDF documents.

Access to data in Microsoft Excel is managed by the Server Administration & Monitoring utility working together with the Opera 3 SE service.  Connections from Pegasus XRL to Microsoft SQL Server use Windows Authentication so a Windows user name needs to be recorded for each Pegasus XRL user.

Pegasus XRL is displayed as ‘Infor Q & A’ in Microsoft Excel.
