Over the years, we’ve worked hard to provide our customers with standardized reporting solutions, and to drive collaboration between different users and reporting teams. Every new CXO Software customer receives 18 standard dashboard templates as part of their licensing package, which we have created based on the best reporting practices of selected users around the world.

Now, with CXO Catalog, we are going one stage further. This new feature of our software, which is free to existing license holders and a central part of the new iteration of CXO Software, 6.4, allows CXO users to directly share their best practice dashboard innovations with other organizationorganizations.

CXO Catalog

CXO Catalog website

Customers can access the dashboard of CXO Catalog in a secure login area on the CXO Catalog website, where the reports can be downloaded and reviewed by leaving comments and giving it a ranking out of five.

In case you have a particularly successful report, please submit it to the CXO Software team, we will then anonymize the data and upload it to the website! This way other customers can also benefit from your great report.

CXO Catalog Wizard

After hitting the add button on the CXO Catalog website, the selected report will be added to your application. Automatically a wizard will open: just follow the different steps in the wizard, click on finish and the report is ready to be used!

The report behaves as all other reports in CXO, so just make changes to the report to meet specific business needs.

Navigate to function for Image control We see that redirects are often used in our application, but redirects only worked with text. In version 6.4 we introduce redirects that work with images. Simply click on an image and you are redirected to another report or URL. This way we want to make the navigation inside CXO easier.
Donut Charts We already have the Pie chart control and we have extended that function with the option to create a Donut chart. Especially when you want to focus on a specific number in your Pie chart, you can use the Donut chart option to display the number in the middle of your Donut.
Variances in Bars and Lines Chart We missed the option to show variances as positive / negative colors in Charts. But not anymore in version 6.4! The Variance formula that you normally could only use in tables, can now also be used in charts. Variances can be displayed as bars or as fill area!
Ranking lists In this version we also introduce a new list type: Ranking lists. In CXO you can create rankings with MDX lists, but that is often not that easy as you have to know how to write the MDX script. With Ranking lists we now make ranking accessible for all report builders.
