Products & Tools in the Family
The ADS LogManager Product Family currently consists of the following products/tools:
ADS LogManager:
The core product to integrate a server-side logging/auditing mechanism in your Advantage database. ADS LogManager logs data changes in the database for different data manipulation operations (Delete/Insert/Update) on user-definable database objects (tables, columns). A point-and-click interface enables you to define easily, for which database objects changes should be logged. If you are interested in logging a history of price changes in a table ARTICLE, just define it with a single mouse-click and relax.ADSLMViewer:
A read-only version of ADS LogManager, that uses the existing logging schema. Ideal for users who should be able to browse and export log data, but without the permission to change the logging schema.ADSLMExport:
A command-line utility to export logged data into different file formats (e.g. Excel, Winword, HTML, XML). You can schedule the export process by using any task scheduling facility like 'AT' under Windows NT/2000/XP.
