Cypress

Cypress is a report distribution system that allows you to use, deliver and manage data contained within documents. Cypress includes an Inbox Viewer that allows users to view all documents and reports sent to a recipient. The Inbox is a personal output destination to which documents may be delivered. Any document can be delivered to an Inbox. The Inbox Viewer:

  • can be accessed from any location where the user logs on to the network
  • allows users to view documents and reports, and send them to a location for more options (for example, conversion of a word document to a spreadsheet)
  • allows documents and reports to be delivered to a recipient’s desktop the moment they’re created
