IntroReports

 

This chapter is all about reports.  Reports are created in a special place in the program which is reached from the Main Purchase Order Screen by selecting FILE >> EXPORT & REPORT GENERATOR.

The Export and Report Generator feature is an extensive and versatile tool designed to move data out of AnyPO and into other programs and applications.  Primarily, it is used to create reports, but it can be used for other purposes.

AnyPO comes with several built-in reports, but what's nice about the report generator is that you can design your own reports.  AnyPO will extract the data according to a profile and will start Excel (or other spreadsheet programs) with the data in place.

The Level III program comes with a series of Excel Macros which will format and create different types of reports for you.  Using Excel (or other spreadsheet programs) for reporting purposes is advantageous since it provides you with all sorts of formatting and printing options.
