MS Excel Tools for PROMIS MES


PROMIS is a powerful manufacturing execution system (MES) used in many semiconductor manufacturing facilities. To improve the efficiency in working with large data sets, smartfabgroup is offering customized MS Excel based software tools not only to view, but also to analyze and modify the data in PROMIS.

Data View Tools

We are offering collection of simple customized MS Excel Tools to view PROMIS items directly in MS Excel interface.

PROMIS Changes and Updates

Imagine that it is the time to recalculate the control limits for your SPC charts. It is simple and straight forward operation which can take several minutes for few charts. But the issue appears when you have to do it for not five but for five hundred charts. Our solution offers full flexibility of MS Excel to calculate and modify the entries. Database query will populate the spreadsheet with charts, operations, tasks or anything you would like to modify. Use standard MS Excel functions (sorting, filtering, text functions, calculations) to create new entries. All what you have to do then is to record the steps which are needed to modify one entry in PROMIS and then simply apply it to all selected entries in MS Excel spreadsheet. Changing five, five hundred or five thousand charts, procedures or operations is no difference – takes still only few minutes.
