CrossCompass ®
Ad Hoc Reporting Tools & Embedded Query Components

Client Bespoke Project

ePrint Direct

ePrint having already installed CrossCompass to provide comprehensive adhoc query capabilities against their helpdesk system, decided to capitalise on their CrossCompass investment via it's API suite.

They asked us to design and develop an order process system that would interact with their existing SQL-Server based helpdesk system.

The proposed system would access their existing customer data to allow them to add orders for any customer. This management of customer orders would also allow them to generate software licences and associated invoices and delivery notes in Microsoft Excel easily.

Also other useful features of the new system were the authentication of the user via the windows password and customer search mechanisms through the use of the embedded query server inherent within CrossCompass.

This embedded query server allowed users to run adhoc database queries from within the system with minimal lines of code.
