Unlimited Reporting Possibilities
Discover new ways to use your fixed asset data with FAS Report
Writer®. You can create reports based on asset value ranges,
location, and even consolidate information from several companies
within your database. The possibilities are limitless.
FAS Report Writer® allows you to develop and maintain your
own reporting standards, with information presented any way
you wish. Use point-and-click formatting to choose typefaces,
sizes, bold face, italics, and more for crisp, professional-looking
results.
Consolidated Report—Create one report that includes data on
multiple companies within the same database. Use it to “roll
up” information for reporting purposes without having to change
the way you’ve set up your data.
Summary Report—When detailed information isn’t needed, you can
generate reports that include only subtotals and totals. These
reports will save you time and trouble in locating important
figures or asset information.
Asset Insurance Report—Simplify fixed asset value reporting
to your insurance company by creating a report on the net value
of your assets. Include the fixed asset description, number,
location, acquisition date and value, total depreciation and
net value.
Foreign Currency Report—To convert currency, you can create
a customized calculation using the current exchange rate and
have the results printed in a new column.
Printing Options
- Once your report structure is defined, FAS Report Writer®
has numerous built-in printing capabilities. Generate your
reports on legal or letter size paper, in either landscape
or portrait style. To help maintain corporate reporting standards,
you can even print a copy of your report specifications to
file.
- Print individual reports whenever you need them.
- Preview reports on-screen without taking the time to print
them. Review actual data to ensure you’ve captured the information
you want, or preview a sample of a large report without having
to wait for the entire report to display.
- Export your reports to a file for later use. For example,
send data directly to a spreadsheet for further manipulation
or for printing at a future date.
