Re: Reporting Feature

 

Hey Lars,

That looks good. Since we have to prepare many of these reports with
multiple charts, to make it more user friendly we have to build wrapper
around API(as our users cannot write code) to make it a small app that
shows all the charts and user selects few of them. Then commentary can go
in data element as you have said. Is this something good? or you can
suggest something good if we have missed exploring some functionality.

Thank you for taking time to reply on generic talk like this at the time of
release. It means a lot.

Regards,
Sultan Ahamar.
