Product and service updates, tips & tricks and more.
The key to the flexibility of Microsoft Microsof FRx is a
unique and dependable system of three basic building blocks: Row
Format, Columns Layout, and Reporting Trees. Once defined, you can save
these building blocks to use again and again to create
business-essential reports. Custom fonts, formatting, and formulas stay
with the report—maintaining the professional,
boardroom-quality appearance of your reports.
Row Format Starting here, you can select
individual accounts, a range of accounts, or a list of noncontiguous
accounts to be included in a report. You can also define totals,
calculations, and if/then parameters. And by using Wild Cards, you can
automatically recognize and include new GL account numbers, keeping
your reports up-to-date. You can even create, name, and reuse account
sets across multiple reports to simplify the report creation and
maintenance process. Whether you want to present a simplified story of
a specific situation or deliver a complete picture of the financial
health of your business, the easy-to-use Row Format building block
helps you feel confident that all relevant account information is there.
Column Layout The Column Layout makes it easy
for you to include period information like actuals, budget, or other
types of data in a report—either from your general ledger or
from other data sources like Microsoft® Forecaster or
spreadsheets. You can apply calculations across columns, making it easy
to identify variances, projections, or percentages. The Column Layout
building block gives you the flexibility to include financial
information from a variety of sources, with assurance that data will
remain accurate and intact. And with no re-keying required, there are
fewer chances for human error in your financial reporting process.
Reporting Trees: You can create a hierarchical picture of your organization to
understand or change your organizational and reporting structures. A
powerful auto-build function constructs Reporting Trees in
seconds— directly from your chart of accounts. Easy
drag-and-drop functionality enables you to create alternative
structures and multiple rollups of various accounts without having to
make modifications to your general ledger or chart of accounts. And by
using effective dating, you can apply several different Reporting Trees
for different periods of time—all within a single report.
Finally, security settings allow you to limit viewing rights at the
unit level of your organization, helping ensure that report consumers
can view only the information they are responsible for.
The Reporting Tree building block lets you experiment with change
before it happens, and helps you respond quickly when the unexpected
occurs. In a results-driven business climate, you’ll feel
better knowing that you have the control to provide timely and relevant
financial reports anytime.
