Report automation with Latex

Post by meeder »

I am looking into the following but I am not sure if it is possible in the way that I see it.

I have to create a large amount of calibration certificates which contain tables.
What I am looking for is a way to automatically use the data in the tables to generate the reports.

I know that there is commercial reporting software but since it is work related and besides MS Office there is no software available on my laptop I would like to do this in Latex. I have used Latex during my education to make documents but nothing like what I would like to do now.

Hi meeder,

welcome to the forum!

Perhaps have a look at the datatool package.
