    Re: Custom report management for Sage Accpac ERP applications

    Report Manager can run independently of Sage Accpac ERP (though Sage Accpac ERP with at least one LanPak must be installed).

    It is possible to launch the application and specified reports without Accpac running (i.e., directly from the Windows Desktop) and maintain security and login as per Sage Accpac ERP users.

    ===================

    Following is an overview and list of features:

    What is Report Manager?

    Report Manager provides a central point from which you can manage and run custom Crystal Reports from any Sage Accpac ERP program. Set up user-friendly report interfaces based on a company's specific business requirements. Extract the parameter list from any Crystal report and set up unlimited report parameters including Sage Accpac ERP Finders, Text fields, Dates, Drop-down lists and Check boxes. These will appear on the report interface when the report is run. All core Sage Accpac ERP Finders are supplied as default to make user interface form building easy. Logical report grouping makes it easy for end users to determine what to run, and when. Report scheduling allows reports to be run automatically. User security options are available for each report to ensure that company personnel only see and print relevant reports.

    Report Manager installs as a full Sage Accpac ERP product (VC) and will appear in the Accpac Desktop like any other Sage Accpac ERP product.

    It is possible to launch the application and specified reports without Accpac running (i.e., directly from the Windows Desktop) and maintain security and login as per Sage Accpac ERP users.
