Reporting in Alteryx 4.0Joshua Muskovitz
  • Senior Developer,
  • Core Technology Group

3
Reporting in Alteryx 4.0
  • How things used to work
  • What did we keep?
  • What did we enhance?
  • New concepts
  • Breaking it down
  • Putting it all together

4
How Things Use To Work
  • Composer
  • Report templates
  • Mapserver
  • PCXML

5
What We Kept
  • Composer (but only as an engine)
  • Report templates
  • Mapserver (but now it is better integrated)
  • PCXML (but you almost never see it)

6
What We Enhanced
  • More output formats (docx, xlsx)
  • Much prettier maps (with drop shadows!)
  • Easy image inclusion
  • Ability to extend existing reports

7
New Concepts
  • No more templates! Dynamic PCXML generation with
    Snippets
  • Direct transformation from Alteryx data to
    Snippets
  • Report construction follows the Alteryx data flow
    paradigm
  • Batch reporting through data grouping
  • Everything is in the module (if you want)

8
Breaking It Down
  • Visualize the finished report
  • Break it down into sections
  • Break it down into snippets
  • Lather, rinse, repeat

9
Putting It All Together
  • Generate the snippets
  • Glue them together
  • Lather, rinse, repeat
  • Render it!

10
Well, lets see it already!

Summing Up
  • Generating pretty reports now happens right in
    your module
  • Additional pieces (images, logos) can live right
    in your module
  • Complex batching features baked right in
  • Never look at PCXML again
  • Lots of samples included, go look!
