Using spreadsheets and generating reports are foundational to your daily operations and integral to making strategic decisions. But generating effective reports can be a challenging process for your team. Many core applications, including ERP systems, General Ledgers, and EMR systems, require manual intervention to compile reports.

Automate's report automation feature eliminates the need for manually generating reports, reducing the possibility of errors, and freeing up your analysts to do what they do best—analyze the data.

How Can Report Automation and Distribution Help Your Team?

Access to business data is critical to making informed decisions. It's best if this information is readily accessible and easy to distribute. Automate can help you create self-refreshing KPI dashboards that pull together data from disparate sources and doesn't require you to use a developer.

In order to know how many hours were left on a project, a team of project managers had to pull a time-consuming report manually. Now, Automate sends a weekly CRM report with all the relevant information.

Instead of its employees spending days pulling end-of-month reports, one insurance company now has Automate close out underwritten insurance claims for the month and write historical entries in the corporate data warehouse, all in an overnight, unattended process.

Automate started running weekly and monthly reports after hours for a manufacturer, pulling the data from Crystal Reports into Excel and sending to designated recipients. 

An IT department replaced Windows Task Scheduler with Automate to run sales reports, eliminating errors in the process.

Flexible Formats and Streamlined Processes

With Automate, you can do more with worksheets to manipulate data and leverage report automation across your organization. Regardless of the data source—whether Excel, Crystal Reports, SQL, an ERP system, web services, or others—Automate’s suite of drag-and-drop actions can merge, process, and format the data to build an intelligent report. Automate can then email the report to stakeholders, which further eliminates the need for manual intervention in the report generation and distribution process.

OpenDocument Format Reporting

Saving your spreadsheets in OpenDocument format means that you can access your spreadsheets from any OpenDocument-compliant application, including Excel, Google Docs, OpenOffice, or LibreOffice. In addition, Automate provides easy-to-use time- and event-based scheduling so reports can be generated, compressed, encrypted, uploaded to SharePoint or an FTP site, emailed to management, and more as part of a single automated workflow.
