Matrix Report

Users can create 3 types of custom reports: simple, advanced, and matrix. A matrix report forms the foundation for custom analytics. It summarizes data by one or two fields that contain repeating values. The resulting matrix is displayed as either a table or chart that users can drill through to see the associated details. Users control the specific detail data users should see when they drill down by selecting the desired fields when defining the report. Matrix reports also provide features such as filtering, run time prompts, worklets and report sharing.

Multicurrency

Companies use a base currency for transactions and reporting. Each Institute in a tenant can have its own base currency. When a transaction currency is different than the Institute base currency, the transaction is recorded in the transaction currency and automatically converted to the base currency. Users can also define default currencies for customers and suppliers.
