Hogan Parameter Manager

Download Hogan PCD information to Excel for easier modification.

Hogan Parameter Manager software helps Hogan® users to view and maintain PCD data more easily than with the standard 3270 mainframe interface. Hogan Parameter Manager provides an intuitive, user-friendly approach that lets you download Hogan PCD information from your mainframe to a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet on your PC.

You can easily view, analyze, create and verify data on your PC and then update PCD records on the mainframe. Hogan Parameter Manager opens up new methods of reporting, analysis and control for Hogan data and reduces the cost of Hogan Systems maintenance.

Hogan Parameter Manager downloads selected PCD records to your personal computer, providing the information in a familiar Microsoft Excel spreadsheet. Each PCD loads into a separate worksheet (i.e., tab) in the Excel workbook and every PCD record has its own row in the spreadsheet. Hogan Parameter Manager also includes columns for standard PCD data such as company ID, effective date, expiration date, ownership and date last changed.

Hogan Parameter Manager's security feature enforces a standard mainframe logon to verify you have the correct access levels. Updates to Hogan application data with Parameter Manager use the same editing and validation logic used with 3270-initiated updates. With Hogan Parameter Manager, Hogan users can now:

• Reduce the cost and risk of critical Hogan application maintenance
• Maximize productivity for updates of PCD data
• Institute check and verify procedures on critical PCDs before updating
• Improve analysis, data mining and knowledge from Hogan Systems data
• Reduce costs of training on the IBM 3270 interface.
