Report
Designer
Report Designer gives you the ability to quickly and
easily modify the Sage Timberline Office 500-plus reports or create
your own.
Building
reports is as easy as pointing and clicking on any
field in a Sage Timberline Office database and dropping it into
the report template. Reports can be totaled at any
level, and conditions can be applied to print only
the information you want to see.
Once
designed, reports can be placed on the main toolbar,
which can be customized for each employee, giving
them quick and easy access to the reports and inquiries
they use most often. For added convenience, you can
also create macros to print a specific set of reports
with a single click of the mouse. For example, use
a macro to generate a rent roll or a series of job
cost reports for a project manager — while you
continue working on other tasks.
