RE: AS/400 Report Writers

My company currently is using Business Objects with BPCS 6.02.  It is
working pretty well for us.  We are using it to provide our 14 salesmen with
all of their sales data and reports.  We have also used it to do a Detailed
Trial Balance and Summary Trial Balance for our Finance Department.
Basically we have used it to fill all of the reporting voids that SSA forgot
to address when they coded BPCS.

Have you considered using Business Objects or Cognos with
SSA's Jumpstarts to meet you end user's reporting and
data extraction needs?

I would like a product that for computer literate users is easier to use
and learn, has good security, control for interactive vs batch, ability to
report or chart the data.

We are a small company with a small budget and large reporting issues and
are thinking about getting Sequel.  Why are you moving away from it?
