Combining and Updating Reports

One of the powerful features of BizInt Smart Charts is the ability to combine charts. This can be used to create one chart with data from multiple sources, different display sets, or different search strategies.

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).

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.

If you are a user of BizInt Smart Charts for Patents, learn more about the New Publications feature.
