ETM Introduces Wings Plus DB Connector

CEDAR RAPIDS, IA--(Marketwired - Jun 4, 2013) - ETM, developer of Wings Plus for statutory financial reporting -- and UPExchange for unclaimed property reporting -- announces the availability of the Wings Plus DB-Connector, a new API that provides real-time access to data in the Wings Plus database to meet a wide variety of organizational needs. The Wings DB-Connector allows data to be gathered once, then used in many different ways without having to re-create or re-key it.

"This is another way for Wings Plus users to save steps, time, and money in the production of statutory-financial and tax-compliance forms and filings," said Layton Olson, EVP at ETM. "Now, all of the data that is cross-populated and cross-checked in forms, filings, and statements is available in real time for any and all other purposes. The value of the Wings Plus DB-Connector extends well beyond annual and quarterly statements."

The Wings Plus database aggregates data from multiple source systems, warehousing it for the production of statutory, tax, and financial form regulatory filings. It provides a single, common data model for consistently presenting information for the related data regardless of the data's source.

For users, when the Wings Plus DB-Connector is used in combination with WingsLink, ETM's proprietary Excel add-in, live data can be used for developing spreadsheets to be used for custom cross-checks, RBC forecasting, board and rating agency reporting, and projection modeling. It enables on-demand custom report creation to allow a multitude of stakeholders to make use of annual statement, premium tax, and state financial filing forms data in any way desired.

IT can create real-time links directly to the database with the Wings Plus DB-Connector API, increasing interoperability with other financial and analytical applications -- and creating opportunities for new product/report development with automated data verification, reconciliation, and synchronization.
