(1888PressRelease)
October 27, 2008 - Sai Innovations, makers of SAI Workspace Suite, a powerful SharePoint Collaboration Application platform, has announced the release of Data Viewer Web Part. SAI Data Viewer Web Part will be part of SAI Workspace Suite functionality which enhances the SharePoint capabilities, which are delivered through basic building blocks, Web Parts and features. They serve as precursor to SharePoint collaborative applications which can be assembled by using the modular architecture of SAI Workspace framework. Modular architecture plays to clients’ advantage that, using SAI’ existing ‘Web Parts and Features’, SharePoint applications can be developed or customized to include Navigation, Rollups, Quick Actions, Business Process and Business Intelligence.
The Data Viewer Web Part offers an efficient and cost-effective approach for the business users to view, search and edit data from any LOB applications. End users with no programming knowledge can customize the Web Part to view the data from either Databases or SharePoint List and display them in flat or hierarchical way. The users can download an evaluation version of the Data Viewer Web Part from SAI web site at www.sai-innovations.com.
SAI Data Viewer Web Part displays data from SharePoint List/Document Library, SQL table/view (Oracle or MS SQL Server), or SAI Rollup data Web Part without the need for SharePoint Designer. Since Designer is not used, Administrators can be assured that Web Pages are not un-ghosted accidently. All the functionalities offered by Data View and more are available in SAI Data Viewer Web Part, like dynamic grouping (Outlook style grouping by end users), filtering and sorting, exporting items to Microsoft Excel or PDF, and customizing the Web Part either with CSS or changing the Web Part skin to match the corporate standards.
Data Viewer Web Part allows users to work in an environment comfortable to them, say Microsoft Excel interface. Inline Child SharePoint List or SQL table/view data can be viewed in Master/Child relationship, just like Excel Pivot tables. Master and Child data can also come from different sources, for example, Customer details can be displayed from a SharePoint List and grouped below this will be the orders for the Customers, which is usually available in an external SQL table.
