Introduction

Altair Monarch Server Automation Edition is designed to be used in conjunction with Altair Monarch Complete, a data extraction and analysis tool that lets you view, analyze, extract, and print data from existing computer reports. Any structured report that is used in your organization can be utilized by Monarch Complete. When Monarch Complete "reads" a report file, instead of producing a hard copy printout with words and numbers frozen on the page, Monarch Complete creates a soft copy of the report on screen, with live data you can work with.
