Actuate e.Spreadsheet Designer is an easy-to-use report development environment for creating flexible and customizable Excel-based spreadsheet reports. e.Spreadsheet Designer offers a unique Excel-driven report creation paradigm, enabling a broad range of users to create reports in order to communicate business-critical information throughout the enterprise.

Report designs created with the e.Spreadsheet Designer are deployed and delivered through the Actuate iServer, which provides a secure, centralized way of generating, managing, and delivering Excel spreadsheet reports or with the Actuate e.Spreadsheet Engine Java API. From there, end users receive fully functional spreadsheet reports, with live formatting, pivot tables, filters, 3D charting. Users can utilize their existing Excel skills to analyze and manipulate the data to meet their exact needs.

e.Spreadsheet Designer leverages Actuate's unique Information Objects-based meta data layer, where data is pulled from real-time complex data sources and transformed into a logical map for selection. The result— anybody with basic Excel knowledge can create and roll out fully functional Excel reports. Simultaneously, the reports can be regulated and server-driven to ensure one version across the organization. e.Spreadsheet Designer enables speedy roll-out of enterprise spreadsheet reports, while users of every skill level get customized, personalized spreadsheets to meet their unique and fast-changing business challenges.

e.Spreadsheet Designer runs in standalone mode for developing e.Spreadsheet templates, which are then deployed as e.Spreadsheets with Actuate iServer and e.Spreadsheet Option or with the Actuate e.Spreadsheet Engine Java API at runtime.

Fast Report Creation

With e.Spreadsheet Designer, you can build enterprise spreadsheet reports extremely rapidly, using a unique environment that closely resembles the Excel application itself. Powerful menu options and wizards contribute to making spreadsheet template creation extremely fast and straightforward, without the need for writing code. You can even open an existing Excel file, modify its formatting and formulas, specify new data sources or update existing ones, then save the results as an e.Spreadsheet template. Wizard-based content creation enables you to format cells and worksheets, adjust formulas and data grouping, summarize data automatically, insert graphs, pivot tables, and more.

e.Spreadsheet Designer lets you create and customize the full array of charts available with Microsoft Excel, including 3D graphs, as well as connect your e.Spreadsheet template to a variety of data sources—including the Information Objects-based meta data layer, any database, XML files, and Java objects—quickly and easily. All of which means anybody with some knowledge of Excel can deliver the spreadsheet reports your end-users need in record time, every time.

Easy Spreadsheet Report Customization

Templates can be created by business users, but it is easy for any user to extend and modify them to get exactly the spreadsheet report they want, without any need for further formatting or assistance. End-users can even prototype how they would like their e.Spreadsheet report to appear using Microsoft Excel, then customize the e.Spreadsheet that is delivered using standard Excel operations.

The result: Business users can generate the most accurate, useful spreadsheet reports possible, and recipients can begin customizing those reports immediately, using the tools they already know and without any additional training or support. In addition, the IT department has the confidence to know that reports are regulated and secure.
