snap...and unlike
the mainstream products, no conversion from MultiValue (or cumbersome
middleware
translations) are required. Once defined, the queries can be deployed
to
desktops or through the browser to the organization, and myViewpoint's
alerts
and constraints system will provide an at-a-glance picture of your
business.
