Argus Safety System
• Io was a mortal woman and
lover of Zeus.
• Zeus' wife, Hera, was terribly
jealous, and Zeus fearing for Io's
life, turned her into a heifer to
escape Hera's gaze.
• But Hera was smart, and
knowing of this deception,
requested Io the heifer as a
present.
• She then sent the heifer to her
dedicated servant Argus
Panoptes, the all-seeing giant,
who has been described as
having 100 hundred eyes on his
body which allowed him to keep
a vigilant watch on Io the Heifer.

Ad Hoc Reporting…
1/30/2015 42
Argus has a built-in ad hoc reporting tool that facilitates the
generation of line listing and tabulation reports with relative
ease
Ad Hoc Reporting…
1/30/2015 43
The CDA report allows for the selection of case entered data
points to generate tabulated data
Ad Hoc Reporting…
1/30/2015 44
The reports can be displayed, memorized or transmitted to
others. The data format of the report can be exported to Excel
as well
Ad Hoc Reporting…
1/30/2015 45
The Charting
option will
display the
information in
various
graphical
formats
Ad Hoc Reporting…
1/30/2015 46
The Line Listing Report allows for the selection of case data
to be displayed in linear form which facilitates tasks like
reconciliation
Ad Hoc Reporting
1/30/2015 47
Line listing reports
have a major
limitation though, in
the display of
multiple rows of
data even when the
logic of the report
wishes the data to
be eliminated from
the display.
For example, if my listing wants to display all serious events and a given case has
two events (1 serious and 1 non), then both rows display on the report even when I
try to restrict it.
However, even with this limitation, the ability to easily generate your own ad hoc
reports with little to no IT assistance is likely worth it!
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 48
Argus allows for the generation of the listings
and tabulations required in several global
periodic reports
You can create “templates” and reuse them or
copy from an old report
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 49
The report allows for naming, categorization and selection of the
agencies to which the information will be submitted
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 50
Products can be selected and targeted if needed
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 51
Options for inclusion criteria allow you to tightly focus on the
data responsible for the report
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 52
The system
allows for the
indication of
AEs of Special
Interest on
the report
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 53
A user can decide what additional fields of information should
display on the listing sections of the report
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 54
The report also allows for the grouping of the data by certain
fields
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 55
The PBRER tables are also included in the PSUR report, as well
as a number of summary tabulations
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 56
Users can also create their own user-defined listings and
tabulations using the Case Listing and Case Data Analysis
reports from Argus and then include them in the periodic report
Periodic Reporting…
1/30/2015 57
Once developed, the report can be drafted, reviewed and submitted
through the interface, but the work/drafting of the report is offset to
the transactional server, thus freeing processing speed for the
application server
Periodic Reporting
1/30/2015 58
Once printed in FINAL mode, all cases included in the periodic report
receive a submission record in their case for clear inclusion in the
report and its tracking
Summary
1/30/2015 59
• Argus provides a sleek interface allowing for the rapid entry,
management and reporting of individual case safety data
• Argus provides interfaces for the generation of ad hoc
listings and tabulations with little IT support
• Periodic reports are relatively easy to build and track within
the system
• Dashboards allow for the comfortable display of case, report
and management information to help your safety team stay
organized

  • 47. Ad Hoc Reporting 1/30/2015 47 Line listing reports have a major limitation though, in the display of multiple rows of data even when the logic of the report wishes the data to be eliminated from the display. For example, if my listing wants to display all serious events and a given case has two events (1 serious and 1 non), then both rows display on the report even when I try to restrict it. However, even with this limitation, the ability to easily generate your own ad hoc reports with little to no IT assistance is likely worth it!
