COLD Reporting

Does your company print endless reams of “Greenbar” or High-volume reports?  If so, you can improve this process, cut labor and reduce operating costs with the WinOcular Enterprise COLD Report Management System!

Everything you need to automate the storage and retrieval of computer-generated reports is available in the easy-to-use WinOcular® Cold Reports Management Program (COLD/RMS).

With COLD/RMS you can import reports from your Mainframe, Mini, or Micro-computer and have them automatically indexed by Report Name, Period End Date and Run Date.  COLD/RMS then converts the report into a sharable, multi-user accessible file accessible from any internet browser.  Advanced security tools allow authorized personnel to search, view, annotate (via attachments) or print reports based on their access privileges.

Reports can be viewed on screen using a variety of user-definable customizations.  You can set the display to emulate green-bar, or use a variety of different fonts and layout tools to customize the look of the report to meet individual preferences.

Searching for specific reports is easy using simple "By Example" inquiries based on the Report Name, Period End and Run Dates.  The advanced Pattern Matching even lets you search on partial information.  The result is a listing of all reports that meet your criteria.

Once you select a report, additional searching tools allow you to find any string, character or information that you need –and COLD/RMS can automatically bookmark all the records that meet the search requirement!  You can even search  for information in multiple reports! 

Bottom line: COLD/RMS is the most advanced and effective way to share Mainframe, Mini, or Micro-computer reports with multiple users.  It requires no additional software beyond your browser and its easy-to-use query tool makes finding important information fast and easy.
