RLR Posted March 8, 2022 Posted March 8, 2022 We're looking at the possibility of moving to iSAMs. One thing that I'm not sure about is whether there is a CommandReporter equivalent for iSAMs. I can currently run PowerShell scripts to run reports from SIMS and update things in AD and other systems. Is there something similar for iSAMs?
vikpaw Posted March 9, 2022 Posted March 9, 2022 It uses SSRS for reports and these can be scripted using PowerShell I believe. It’s also got an extensive API. So what you want to do will no doubt be possible but maybe in a different way with a slight learning curve. I’m sure others will chip in, but best to confirm with them directly any specific requirements as part of your research. 1
KK20 Posted March 16, 2022 Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) SSRS. If you arent proficient in SSRS then be prepared to pay a lot for support. isams is reasonable as an MIS and you can get an API so you can code your own bespoke apps to use the data but everything costs extra. Make sure you scope the entirety of what you want to do in isams so that you can get an idea of the true cost - each module costs more. We have quite a few .NET apps we have coded to do multiple tasks such as account creation for pupils, teams SDS sync, intranet updates etc. These are done when accounts are moved to "current" in isams and utilise the API in isams to get at the data.
