standard reports

There are currently 120 standard reports included with Communiqué.  Within one year from the official release date of Communiqué, we plan to add between 40 to 80 new standard reports (with feedback from our user community of course).  Software Assurance customers will get these free as they are made available through our regular release cycle.  Those customers without Software Assurance will need to purchase the upgrade in order to get the additional standard reports.

The standard reports are organize into 12 categories to better help you find relevant reports.  For example:  Customer related reports can be found in the Customers section, Inventory related reports will be found in the Inventory section, etc.  The Custom Reports section is used exclusively for custom reports, and can contain user defined reports which may normally be found in other sections.  To view sample reports from Communiqué click here...
