Financial Reporter

The Distributed Financials report writer is used to send custom reports via email, with any email client, to a list of recipients associated with a given ac-count segment (fund, department, etc.). This can be useful to those who need to run pre-defined reports by department, location, etc., where these entities are part of the account number.

Reports are exported into PDF, Word, or Excel formats and attached to an email message to a user-defined list of recipients for each component.

Recipients do NOT have to be USL Financials users.

Emailing may be scheduled for a certain time of day to avoid peak Internet traffic.

The user sending these reports will receive a copy of each report emailed.

These same reports may be viewed dynamically on the Internet.

With Quick Financials, users can quickly and easily write and run their own re-ports without time consuming specifications and formatting. Examples of quick reports include:
