Data Collection and Reporting Integration

Client

University of Michigan Health System Department of Family Medicine

The Challenge

The department uses the open-source LimeSurvey software to create surveys for study participants. This department also uses Business Objects to create custom reports on the survey data acquired. However, the format of the data in the LimeSurvey database is not suitable for Business Objects.

The Solution

A PHP script runs nightly converts the LimeSurvey data into a format suitable for Business Objects. Reports and queries can then be run against this converted data.
