? Flexible Report Writing Options - Pull data from multiple locations for a single report, create restrictions to pinpoint specific information, perform calculations on data, and create new sorting methods to view information the way you want.

? Export to Excel and HTML - Easily export reports to industry-standard file formats and use Microsoft® Excel to perform further calculations. Send e-mail reports to decision makers and publish reports on your business intranet.

? Scheduled Reporting -Automate report publication with Report Scheduler, allowing you to set up recurrent or immediate publication for any report option or report created with Report Writer.
