August 22, 2025 | 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM EDT
Summer might be winding down, but the learning is just heating up! Get ready to hit the books (or at least your computer) with our August FOCUS Friday. We're serving up a power-packed session that will have you feeling like your head of the class in no time. Ditch the summer slide and dive into some serious FOCUS and WebFOCUS wisdom! This month Walter and Renee will be covering:
JOIN Alternatives- Match & More
This presentation demonstrates how ibi FOCUS's MATCH and MORE commands enhance data manipulation and reporting. We will first cover MATCH, illustrating its utility in combining data from multiple FOCUS sources, including various match types and handling unmatched records. We will then explore MORE, highlighting its role in iterative data processing and report generation which allows you append output from several data sources within the same TABLE request.
Customizing WebFOCUS In-Document Analytics: Actively Engaging Your Data
This follow up session is all about making your WebFOCUS In-Document Analytics (IDA) reports more customized and personalized. It encompasses the configuration of analytic documents options, including menu settings, and investigates the styling and control capabilities achievable through the ultization of both WebFOCUS stylesheets and cascading style sheets (CSS) class selectors specifically supported by Analytics Anywhere (IDA).
Output Formats on z/OS
This session will give you an overview of the more common output formats and go over any special processing that may need to be done to view the file. We will discuss the xlsx, pdf, and html and the best way to transfer them from your mainframe.
Don't miss out on this prime opportunity to sharpen your skills before the fall rush. Register now and secure your spot for a fun, fact-filled FOCUS Friday!
