5.6 On Demand Reports
The On Demand Reports or ODR creates Dayparts or Daily reports just like
the ones created from the Fast Track printer. This allows the user a quick
way to view their data with a minimal amount of mouse clicks.
On Demand Reporting can be used in three different ways:
ODR can be used through the Fast Track Software Suite from the
Reports function.
ODR can run on the fly by just running the batch programs.
ODR batch programs can be scheduled to run from a 3
rd
party
scheduler. This will allow for reports to be automatically viewed on
the screen without any user intervention.
The install process installs the twelve batch files into your Fast Track
Software Suite folder.
ODR_DAYPART1.BAT
ODR_DAYPART7.BAT
ODR_DAYPART2.BAT
ODR_DAYPART8.BAT
ODR_DAYPART3.BAT
ODR_DAILY.BAT
ODR_DAYPART4.BAT
REPORTS.BAT
ODR_DAYPART5.BAT
REMOTE.BAT
ODR_DAYPART6.BAT
REMOTE
CONTROL.BAT
These batch programs may be run from the Fast Track Software Suite
folder or from the shortcuts on your desktop.
To use an ODR for Daypart 1 for an example, click on the
ODR_DAYPART1.BAT program. The program will start to run, connect to
the first site you created within the Site function. It will then proceed to
download the data and then create a report, then sending it to print preview
for viewing (see sample). You may now print the report to your local printer
or discard it after viewing. The printer prints a report similar to report
created on the timer’s printer.
If there is more than one site listed under the Site function, the site that was
created first will be the only site reports can be retrieved from using any of
the ODR Daypart batch or ODR Daily batch files. Reports.bat can create
reports from any unit listed in your sites. The Reports.bat function is the
same as the Reports function within the software.
Remote and Remote Control batch programs can connect with any timer
that is listed in your Sites. Remote Control can give you full timer control
using the virtual keypad while Remote only lets you view without any interaction.
