Report Wizard

Student Manager Reports from ACEware Systems, Inc. is a self-service, ad hoc, query and reporting solution that enables you to create and deliver business reports quickly and efficiently.

After selecting a report from the list of available reports, you can select the sort order, enter filter conditions, and specify where the output goes (printer, spreadsheet, screen preview, etc.).

In addition to running pre-defined reports, you can create your own reports in just minutes. Simply select which fields to report on from the list of available fields (with meaningful descriptive names rather than cryptic names and symbols), and you're done! You don't have to know complex stuff like joins; Student Manager Reports takes care of that for you.

For finer control, you can customize how each field appears, including column heading, grouping, and totaling. The easy-to-use filter dialog allows you to include or exclude specific records. Use the sort page to order the information as you need it. Finally, save the report so you can edit it, copy it, or make it available to others to run.
