Report Management and Version Control

Customer July 14, 2020 Questions & Answers 5 replies

We require a robust method for managing our custom SQL reports. Specifically, we need built-in version control and audit history, and mechanisms to prevent accidental duplication when developers modify existing report queries. How does Blitz Report handle this?

Blitz Report incorporates full version control. This is a core feature that tracks modifications to your custom SQL scripts. It ensures that reports are not duplicated and provides a comprehensive audit/version history of all changes made to the report definitions.

Does this require manual logging, or is the version history tracked automatically?
Support Enginatics July 18, 2020
The system automatically manages this. When you create or modify a report by pasting a new SQL query into the Blitz Report form, the system tracks the version control number automatically, ensuring that changes are logged and previous versions can be reviewed. This feature is part of the project implementation and upgrade toolkit functionality.

That’s a significant improvement over our current decentralized storage method for SQL scripts.

Indeed. This centralized approach, combined with the ability to categorize the report (e.g., ‘Toolkit – Business Operations’) for quick retrieval, streamlines management for development and support teams significantly.
