Get a Snapshot of Your Information Quality
acrolinx IQ™ Reporting makes quality issues transparent-at any point in the process
acrolinx IQ™ Reporting generates individual reports that break down spelling, grammar, style, and terminology issues, as well as reuse opportunities. These reports provide a snapshot of your information quality at any point in your authoring workflow. With the click of a button, you can access the individual reports for documents that exceed your quality thresholds in order to decide what action to take. The acrolinx IQ™ Reporting functionality provides a window into Information Quality that helps you make the right decisions quickly.
Automate Your Quality Control Processes
acrolinx IQ™ Reporting gives you metrics to make your decisions
acrolinx IQ™ Reporting automatically generates metrics for every document you check that enable you to set thresholds for assessing the readiness of your projects. If documents exceed those thresholds, they can be flagged for further editing. IQ™ Reporting also provides businesses with the flexibility they need. You decide which metrics are most important - spelling, grammar, style, terminology, or reuse - and weight each metric accordingly.
Maximum Configurability for Your Processes
Tailor reporting and metrics to meet the needs of your company
The web-based acrolinx IQ™ Dashboard lets you create sophisticated queries to support your business rules. You can search reports at various points in a project, and set up key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure your content for Six Sigma, ISO0900, or other leading quality management strategies. This enables translation workflow by establishing metrics for MT readiness. In addition, the acrolinx IQ™ Reporting Database Connector provides JDBC/ODBC connectivity to integrate with all standard database systems, providing scalable, fully customizable reports.
Metrics as Metadata
acrolinx IQ™ makes quality status visible
In addition to providing a separate record of the quality status of your content, acrolinx IQ™ Reporting can embed the quality status inside documents. This feature allows content management systems (CMS) or file-based browsers to show the quality status to users without requiring them to open any documents. This feature is available for structured content in XML, Microsoft Word, FrameMaker, and other document formats.
