Once only used in certain financial niches, Responsible Investment (RI) has now become a priority for many large financial investors. This new adoption of RI principles may come as a response to the widespread corporate scandal issues or to the ever-tightening hold environmental groups have on federal policy. Whatever the reason, corporations are beginning to seriously evaluate the effect their policies and investments have on social, corporate and governmental entities. Companies are now responding to these environmental demands by looking into responsible investment options – anything that deals with the reduction of emissions, energy conservation or even fair trade and labor standards.
However, investment standards are continually evolving, so it becomes difficult for investors to keep up with which companies perform stringent corporate social responsibility policies and which don’t. It is because of situations like these, that a company needs reliable SQL server report functionality.
Reporting services in SQL Server allows you to create, view and manage reports based on large amounts of data stored on the local instance of the SQL Server. These reports can be on any information that is stored on th eServer. So in the above server scenario, this might be data relating to other associated company’s ROI principles and procedures.
How does it work?
The following describes how the SQL report services work:
- All the server components from the SQL Server and from the reporting services need to be installed on the single server. You can’t store and SQL report server database on a remote server.
- All sources of any data for the report server need to be on the local instance of the SQL server.
- Once components are installed, reports can be processed on demand. They can be automatically scheduled and configured.
How to Make the Reports?
Any created report in MySQL uses the same report creating features found in other reporting services. You can create drill through reports, parameterized reports including charts, tables, matrices and lists, as well as sub-reports of similar nature. You can also reuse data and report definitions for other reports as well. Once you create a report configuration, you have the option of publishing it to report server, to make it available to other users. The use of the report manager allows you to create role assignments and give access to the report to employees or relevant to it.
The Purpose of the MySQL Report
As in the above example, you can see that businesses must base their decisions on data results. However, getting these results is difficult when done manually, virtually impossible to access all data sources and keep this type of data up-to-date without the aid of some tool. My SQL report services allows the system to quickly access all the data kept on the server and emit pertinent reports, allowing management team members to quickly make visual and statistical analysis and come to a better management decision regarding any process.
