FluenceXL Standard and Enterprise Editions

XLCubed is available in two editions, Standard and Enterprise.

The Enterprise Edition of XLCubed provides extra functionality for both Excel and the Web.

These are:

• Maps
• Scheduling
• SharePoint Integration
• iPad app/Mobile app access
• SQL Repository and Cube Comments

Maps

XLCubed Maps are an optional extension which allow plotting geographic data directly in Excel and publishing to the XLCubed Web server.

You can plot the data locations, and optionally set the colour and size of the plotted points to show values.

For more information go to Maps

Scheduling

XLCubed Web Edition can be used to deliver reports to users automatically.

Using a schedule you can define which reports go to which users, and can optionally parameterise the results.

Scheduling maintenance is set up in the browser using the Scheduling menu (or the icon in v7.6 and older).

For more information go to Scheduling

SharePoint

XLCubed have developed an option for tighter integration with SharePoint, allowing SharePoint to act as a repository for XLCubedWeb reports, so publication and report navigation is contained within SharePoint.

For more information go to SharePoint Integration

iPad app/Mobile app access

Once reports are published to XLCubed Web, they can be accessed on any device with a compatible browser, including smartphones and tablets.

SQL Repository

From Version 8, Web Edition can store its repository of published files in a database rather than on the server's file system. This method allows for finer grain control of various aspects of repository access, as well as a richer interface:

• new Excel-based dialogs for controlling permissions and access to reports and folders
• full version history of published items, as well as locking the live version
• logging of report accesses, including rendering times for usage and performance monitoring
• integration with any present domain and the ability to set up custom groups
• Extended options around integrating with existing "Forms Authentication" websites
• Operational reporting - report usage, user activity etc.

In addition to these features, the SQL Repository feature also enhances the following:

• scheduling: this is also accessible from Excel, and features an easier to use interface as well as integrated run history
• error logging: available from a dedicated server administration application, this can be used on any machine and user that has server access

Cube Comments

Cube text commentary was introduced in Version 8.1. It allows users to enter text commentary against data slices. It relies on Web Edition running under the SQL Repository.
