Newsletter: April 2025

Areté presents a new option in Prevail11 to export Meta Reports as "Xtables" that can be easily integrated with Tableau, Power BI and other external reporting tools. This month, we also highlight new Prevail11 changes to add a non-weekly time frame in Meta Reports and an option to consolidate Period-to-Date (PTD) and Period-to-Go (PTG) values in Excel Outline Exports.

Easily push data from Prevail11 into Tableau & Power BI using New Meta Report Options

Planners can now select a saved or a shared Meta Report to be exported as an "XTable", which is a new type of reporting interface. Prevail11's smart naming function assigns a unique Widget-ID to each Meta Report for ease of location, accessibility and storage.

In the Manage Exported Reports option, Planners see each Meta Report and its associated XTable along with the most recent Export Time and Row Count of the report. The Report Dtls Pane of the Manager displays all XTable column names, and the Report Pane displays the actual XTable records. Planners now also have the option to re-run an export to refresh data, delete all XTable data or drop the XTable completely.

The Manage Exported Reports launcher form now has the option to "Show Exported Reports Only", to only display reports that have been exported to an existing XTable.

Create Detailed Meta Reports for Specific Time Frames

Prior to the latest release, Prevail11 had an option to filter Meta Reports by Calendar Week only. Areté improved the Meta Report to filter reports based on any available configurable time frame, such as Weeks, Months or Periods. This has been enhanced to provide a better user experience and more flexible and configurable reporting.

Now consolidate PTD and PTG in your Excel Outline Exports

The Export Excel Outline function now features an option to combine the PTD (Period-to-Date) and PTG (Period-to-Go) values for the current month, when exporting by month. Simply select the Combine PTD and PTG option on the launch form for more tailored monthly Excel Outlines.
