The majority of the work in publishing out of OSEE has been in the
format of Microsoft Word(c) documents. The user can create a Word
template that "describes" the format, headers, footers and what data
maps into the specified areas in the template. A BLAM is then ran where
the user can specify the branch and what artifacts are to be published.
Upon execution, the documents are created. This method has successfully
generated documents in excess of 10,000 pages that were delivered to the
customer.
The OSEE architecture also supports other methods of publishing
including web and open document formats. Depending on the level of
complexity, some work would be done to provide further export
capabilities. Another form of publishing that OSEE was architected for
is delivery of OSEE and the database. Although OSEE can publish
documents and reports, it was decided early on that the vendors and
customers would want and need the same navigation and exporation
capabilities that OSEE provides. Instead of delivering generated
documents, one of the projects that OSEE is deployed on delivers a copy
of OSEE with a sanitized database (confidential data removed). This has
been very successful from both the program and customer's point of view.
