WebFOCUS Upgrade to 77

On November 17, 2012 WebFOCUS was upgraded to version 77. Along with this new release the following events also occured:

* Migration from Solaris to Linux platform (new IP address)
* Authentication with MyFAU passwords instead of the Banner account

One of the features available with this release is a new format for producing Excel. The new format coded as EXL07 provides Excel 2007 capabilities and will create files with the .xlsx extension. This will allow you to easily open your Excel files without the requisite prompts you may have had in order to open the file.

About

DARTBOARD technology allows access into your application data with dynamic capabilities to select the sorts, filters, and output formats ( PDF, Excel, graph) desired and drilldown to hit your target data.Each template is deployed in a secured environment and will document all selections made along with the user's account and date timestamp.Optional drilldown features to create key lists known as My LISTs, will allow My LISTs to be re-applied as filters on any reporting template.

This blog serves to inform DARTBOARD/WebFOCUS users about development, upgrades, training classes, and related issues. Here, we will answer FAQs, announce upcoming events, collect feedback from Users, and document enhancements.
This blog also serves to provide a source of communication for users to interact with the IRM/BITS Office and other DARTBOARD users by entering their comments and reactions to postings. This communication should improve the capabilities of the DARTBOARD as well as faciliate sharing of tips and techniques learned.
