Create and customize presentation-quality reports from your Sage MAS 90 or
Sage MAS 200 data with Crystal Decisions software. Crystal Reports is a
powerful WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) report writer that
allows you to create meaningful reports quickly and easily. You can use
sample reports straight out of the box (see the column at left for a
listing of the 27 report templates included). Or, modify them to suit
your needs, then save and run them anytime.
Take control over the look of your documents by
selecting font type, size and color. Enhance the layout by applying
lines, borders and shading. Further enrich your reports with embedded
pictures, diagrams and logos. Use tables, cross-tabulations or one of
twelve graph styles to communicate your financial information. You can
even create reports with drill-down capabilities simply by selecting
that option for the detail section of a report. Crystal’s "Experts" are
wizards that guide you through the report process from start to finish,
and Private Tutor is a built-in training and online help system. You
can run your reports at pre-determined times, even unattended. See the
features list on the reverse side for exciting new capabilities.
The ODBC (open database connectivity) driver, included
with the application, gives Crystal Reports direct access to Sage MAS 90 and
Sage MAS 200 data. The ODBC driver also provides read-only access to
Sage MAS 90
and Sage MAS 200 data for other applications, including Microsoft Word, Excel
and Access software — for automatic transfer of your accounting
information into other applications and report writers. Crystal is
included with your Sage MAS 90 or Sage MAS 200 software.
FEATURES:
Sub-reports
These may be embedded in
a main report so that you can insert information from different
tables with different formats into any section of a report. For
example, you can embed your income statement into the balance sheet
and pull the net income figure into the balance sheet.
Conditional and
Multiple Section Reports
This feature lets you
specify special conditions for each section of a report, allowing
one report to produce several different outcomes.
Enhanced
Cross-tabulation Objects
You can present summary
information in a single cell, replacing columnar report formats.
Form-style Reports
This feature allows for
printing with greater precision on pre-printed forms using new
guidelines and text objects.
Mail Merge Capabilities
You can combine database
information with letters or other text objects, and specify
selection criteria to target specific groups of customers.
Report Design Control
Improved user interface
gives more power and control over report design by letting you
customize your design environment. You can also use a drawing model
instead of a pre-defined grid for more accurate placement of data
fields.
Control Formatting with
Formulas
Data can be displayed in
a different color or underlined to put emphasis on a particular cell
and its value.
Enhanced Graphing
Capabilities
You can graph on
details, formulas and subtotals, and there are several graphical
formats to choose from.
Report Distribution
Capabilities
With Crystal Reports,
you can publish reports to the Web with automatic HTML output,
presenting embedded graphs and other features of the original
report. When exporting to Word and Excel, images, lines, boxes, and
color are included. You can e-mail reports in one of 15 file
formats.
