Transform AS/400, IBM i, and iSeries spool files
Quickly convert AS/400 reports to PDF or Excel.
Enhance your IBM i or AS/400 applications with digital document workflows
IBM i (or AS/400, as some people refer to it) applications have proven security and performance. However, improving the IBM i user experience is always a challenge. By leveraging IBM i spool files, you can implement digital document transformation for greater efficiency.
This process securely converts AS/400 output documents and reports into the user’s format. This helps produce comprehensive user-friendly reports and automate business document exchanges for consistent performance.
Turn complex reports into high-quality documents
- Renovate or replace legacy applications
Compleo enhances IBM i applications with modern document creation and distribution features. You can convert AS/400 spool files into visually appealing reports in common formats, such as Excel, PDF, or XML. Furthermore, you can replace your current AFP solution for your purchase orders, order forms, bills of lading, and more. - High availability and load balancing
Implement a fully automated solution that runs whenever you need it, including off-work hours. - Benefit from Cloud repository services
Use your AS/400 applications to the fullest and master document distribution for MS Sharepoint, Amazon AWS, or Google Drive.
Get more value from your AS/400 application by going digital
There’s a better way to share documents. Instead of using attachments, you can send each recipient a URL via email linking to the file’s location. Each document is stored online, where you can notify readers as soon as it is ready to view.
This way, you improve governance and security, control availability, and can view read history. The document remains centralized and unique, eliminating redundancy. Even better, Compleo handles all of this smoothly.
Request a digital or electronic signature from each recipient for document approval. Compleo SaaS Websign offers external or internal signers the ability to review, validate, and sign business documents.
Enhance your EDI by transforming the original IBM i spools for invoice into a well-formatted XML file while monitoring the entire exchange. You can see the status of each invoice, know exactly when it is received, and get confirmation upon acceptance. Compleo for XML and Compleo PEPPOL Manager take care of digital document management from sender to recipient, enhancing your entire workflow.
What’s more, Symtrax is also a Certified PEPPOL Access Point, making international business interactions easier.

How Compleo works with IBM i reports and documents
Access IBM i spool files via a straightforward, secure connector
Want to go from raw data to a polished final document? Here’s how you can do it: first, we connect directly to AS/400 output queues to grab and transform a business document or report released as a spool. The connector converts the spool file automatically, whether it’s SCS, IPDS, or AFPDS, into a Windows or Web-compatible format. Then, digital processes enrich the layout and distribute the document. That’s all it takes.
Burst several Excel reports in one go
Don’t let large volumes slow you down. You can burst complex reports with thousands of pages, mismatched lines, and Unicode characters, into Excel spreadsheets in a matter of seconds. As soon as a spool file is released, it is automatically converted into an Excel file and delivered to the correct recipients.
Furthermore, Compleo Explorer and Compleo Supervisor work hand-in-hand to define the conversion format and automate spool monitoring. As a result, you get a fast, self-sufficient cycle that requires minimal IT input.
Transform IBM i spool files into great-looking business documents
Ongoing jobs can produce tons of paperwork to keep track of, including invoices, purchase orders, packing lists, and other forms. For many corporations, this involves splitting a very long batch file into individual PDFs and routing documents to send to various recipients.
Compleo Layout handles all of this for you: set your preferences and the automation does the rest, streamlining multiple processes at once for high-quality forms.
