Combining Reports

One of the most powerful features of BizInt Smart Charts is the ability to combine two or more reports into a single report. This can be used to create one chart with data from multiple sources, different display sets, or different search strategies. Rows in combined charts which refer to the same topic (drug program, clinical trial, or patent family) can be integrated using the Smart Data Integrator.

The Update feature takes this one step further by flagging new and changed records, allowing you to see what is new and what is changed in a alert (for example). You can learn more on the Update page.

Combining Reports with Gene Sequence Results

We've prepared a document on Combining & Updating Reports which explains the details of using these features.

We discussed advances in the Update command at the 2019 PIUG NE Meeting (you can see the slides here). Even if you don't work with patent information, you might find the discussion of how update works in Reference Rows useful.
