Reporting out of QlilView

[#1]

All, I want to know how useful will it be to use QlikView if my reporting requirements are as follows:

an interactive UI -- I know QV is good on this

Burst out PDF reports -- I know QV can do this

Burst out data in flat file for other systems to consume -- can QV do this?

Send data over a message bus or in xml formats -- can QV do this?

Ideally, we would like to use one tool that can do all or at least the first three.

Suggestions are welcome !!

Burst out data in flat file for other systems to consume -- can QV do this?

Can do ... either when reloading the document (to csv or their native qvd format), or through user interaction of right-click and export, or a macro (fired off by a reload, open or button press) to save recors down to a text file

Send data over a message bus or in xml formats -- can QV do this?

There is a way to suck SOAP XML out, using plug-ins to a QlikView document. A QlikView product called Workbench, is available (http://www.simplequickresult.com/products/qlikview/qv-workbench) as well as other third party tools (www.qvsource.com and http://www.projectbrokers.com/qlikview/pblabs/soap-api.html). I'm not sure whether there is an API interface that don't cost anything though.
