Utilities are submitted through an easy to use GUI front end, and present results in clear, concise reports, allowing the user to preview modifications before committing them to the Repository.

All Utilities use the Application Programmatic Interface (API) of Oracle Designer for selecting, creating, updating and deleting data in the Oracle Designer Repository. If you work in a versioned repository the Productivity Boosters will automatically check out the objects that need to be updated. Customization is very easy through the Administration Forms which are all 100% generated using the Headstart Template Package. You can plug in your own Productivity Boosters or modify the reports to support your own standards and quality management processes.
