Wonderware adds HMI Reports to its operations management software

Wonderware, a business unit of Invensys, has added Wonderware HMI Reports to its offering of operations management software solutions. Wonderware HMI Reports is a simple reporting solution for use with Wonderware InTouch HMI and other plant and industrial data sources.

Wonderware HMI Reports enables customers to transform raw data from multiple data sources into usable information with custom reporting capabilities that can be created easily, quickly and inexpensively. The resulting reports can be made available to anyone, anywhere, anytime via e-mail, printed copies or a Web portal.

Wonderware HMI Reports reduces report development time and simplifies report modifications by using simple integration tools for accessing data from InTouch, Wonderware Historian and other HMI applications, as well as other data sourcing programs that support OPC, OLE DB and ODBC standards. HMI Reports can be configured through simple interfaces, menus, intelligent report objects and user-friendly dialog boxes.

HMI Reports also offers enhanced security and report-generation features. The software provides integrated security measures that make it is easy to define who can access reports and who can create, modify or generate reports. These can be customized on a per-report basis to further enhance overall data security. In addition, HMI Reports provides a user-friendly object library for data extraction of statistics, offers customizable report designs and enables the user to view data in multiple formats such as tables, bars, pie charts and graphs. The software also features an intuitive graphical editor that enables reports to be created and saved as templates for future use.
