As IT people, we have to make various data statements and reports at the end of each year, not to mention how much trouble IT is to connect data from various business systems, and IT takes too long to communicate with the demand side. Especially for departments with rapidly changing businesses, IT is common to make a report for three days.

Excel should be the most commonly used report tool, but in the actual work process, due to THE IT planning and business process, many IT personnel and data personnel do not necessarily use Excel to develop reports. On the contrary, IT is a very backward way to send and copy Excel reports by email.

Just look at how ugly Excel reports are, and think about how the leadership will not like it!

For example, when I was in Tencent, even if the company bought tens of millions of SAP business systems, Excel was still everywhere in the end. Either the data was wrong here or the data caliber was wrong there.

We had no choice but to teach business personnel to use SQL and database. However, due to the difficulty of learning and threshold problems, the simple report requirements were still handed over to IT, but the requirements were more stringent. IT was really bitter and there was no place to say.

Finally, we found a tool — FineReport, which is not only able to realize the automation of reports, but also easy to use and low learning cost. FineReport does not need to write codes like SQL, nor is it difficult to use as complex as Excel. It is almost the most useful report tool in the market now, and completely solves the problem of reports in the company.

How does that work? And you can keep going.

1. Complex reporting solutions

FineReport is not only a reporting tool, it actually belongs to the enterprise WBE level reporting platform, from the back-end data source to the front-end report design, production and management, in one go:

For complex reports common to companies, such as line reports, weekly reports, monthly reports, etc., FineReport provides three report design modes, suitable for reporting requirements in different scenarios:

For example, ordinary report mode, mainly used to solve a variety of Chinese complex statements, common have all kinds of detailed tables, group reports, cross reports, master sub-reports, column reports, query reports, fill in the production of reports, most of the report format can cover;

For example, the aggregation report mode is mainly aimed at irregular large reports, such as financial bills and invoices, which are very troublesome in large reports, and can be easily resolved in FineReport:

For example, the decision-making report mode is the visualization cockpit favored by leaders and bosses. It mainly displays business indicators and realizes the visualization report of multi-dimensional data analysis.

2, low code, zero cost

Low code is a hot word now, but also the inevitable trend of software development in the future. For us IT people, FineReport, a low-code tool, is very friendly, and the visual SQL interface is modular, so we can call IT directly.

For business people, the report design interface is more simple and clear, there is no need to write code, with the mouse drag several indicators, click a few charts can quickly produce a high quality report, which also benefits from the visual module encapsulation in FineReport.

3. Report management function

One of the biggest problems of traditional Excel statements is that it cannot achieve statement management. Poor Excel tables are passed around, and the data is not known how many times they have been changed. A bit better from the use of research system management, this department with a set, that department with another set, report indicators are all mixed up.

The reason why FineReport can be called a report platform is that it can manage reports uniformly and integrate data sources through the data platform, such as the goods warehousing and filling system, personnel information management system, financial verification and cancellation process, etc., saving costs only takes a few minutes.

4. Data filling

Data filling should be a surprising function of FineReport. Most of the traditional report software can only achieve one-way data entry, and it is almost impossible to achieve multi-person filling.

Because the traditional sense of the report, is to solve the problem of data presentation, that is, to take out the data from the database, and then show in a variety of formats, the results of the display can be exported, printed and so on.

In actual operation, we also need to edit reports/data while data, such as adding, modifying and deleting some data. Such reports are called filling reports in FineReport.

On the basis of the above presentation/query reports, it supports filling and provides a variety of control styles to choose from. It supports online import of Excel data, which can meet the requirements of data editing and input in different scenarios. For example, free form filling.

The last

The above is the way to make statements with professional reports, the space is limited, many details can not be expanded. If we make full use of the three report design modes of FineReport, we can realize most of the complex report design requirements and play with report development.
