Reports
May/15/2005
Tradepoint not only allows you
to report on accounting -> accounts payable, receivable, payments and
bills, but Tradepoint also allows you to report on EVERY area of your
company. Tradepoint is not just an
accounting tool. It is a general
business management software package that contains all of your CRM data,
Accounting data, stock and inventory data and more.
Note the other categories in this
window: Appointments, Contacts,
Orders, Products, Projects…
The list goes on. Every one
of these areas can be reported on in depth. Tradepoint also allows advanced
reporting possibilities that would be virtually impossible to perform with any
other package. With
Tradepoint's advanced reporting, you can create custom reports that “pull” data
from every area of your company into one large and streamlined
presentation. Tradepoint does
this all in seconds (what would normally take days or weeks). An example would be:
A report containing data using
the criteria of:
- every company that has paid your company X amount of dollars
in the last 3 months
- that is managed by employees X, Y Z
- that is in divisions GHI
- that might be invoiced in projects A, B and C
- that has J, K and L products purchased by you
- and that may have viewed the P page on your website during
this period of time
- and oh yes, while we are at it, have purchased any new
products from your eCommerce web solution
The above example is an extremely
difficult report that would through an old style system have to go through
Accounting managers, Sales managers, IT managers, Project managers, Purchasing
mangers and others; then after all of the mangers receive the request they
submit a report to another staff member that then amalgamates the information
and places it into a large report that is then sent to you. Weeks often pass and many hours are
invested before such a report can be made, many companies don’t even try to
produce such a report simply because it would be too costly to take their staff
out of their productivity in order create a report that management needs. Because of this reality, management is
often forced to make important decisions “off the cuff” while being half blinded
by the lack of information they experience on a daily base. Often managers can even feel out of
control of their own business because of this blindness. Tradepoint can provide Management
with high level advanced and detailed reports in seconds (not weeks hours or
months). We allow mangers to
make educated decisions about their company (in seconds) without ever being
concerned by blind sightedness or taking staff out of productivity to create
reports. Staff can then
continue to focus on their job at hand without being interrupted.
To bring this concept to the
largest scale and exemplify the example, let’s look at one of the largest
companies out there: The government.
Does the government’s “right hand” really know what the “left hand” is
doing? No. Why? You can now answer a great part of that
question. It is hard to make a
decision in the dark. It is hard to
manage a budget if you really don’t know where the money has been or is going to
be spent.
If Tradepoint could vastly
streamline a budget making process involving many billions of dollars involving
many divisions, sub divisions and managing sectors, what could Tradepoint
do for your company? Tradepoint accounting and
management scales down to a 1 person company simply wanting to manage and gain
information about their company, up to any size Enterprise.
