Operational Reporting With MITS Report
Empower users to create ad hoc reports
Free up your IT team by giving users a web-based tool for generating their own ad hoc reports. Even if they don’t know exactly what they are looking for, MITS Report empowers users to build any sort of report they need using the information that already resides in your business systems.
Designed to give users direct access to detailed transactional data, MITS Report lets users build reports from the bottom up, selecting and filtering data sets, creating on the fly calculations, and massaging the data until they find exactly what they need. Summarizing and publishing those reports via exports, emails, or in common libraries allows users to get back to work and let MITS Report handle the routine job of report distribution to the right people at the right time.
Customer and vendor lists, invoices issued for one product or to a specific customer, journal entries over a set time period: these are just a few examples of the kinds of reports you can generate. Users simply chose the data source, select the fields, and a report is created in seconds no special language or database knowledge required. Query results can be explored interactively with report sorting, filtering, totaling, averaging, and other features.
