FRx ( Financial Report Extender ) for Windows Report Writer software ( Standard Version ) is included with the Sage MAS 90 General Ledger module. Frx for Windows is a full-featured, Windows 98 compatible graphical financial reporting tool.
With FRx, the ability to specify row and column formats independently maximizes the flexibility of report formats. Combine formats with a custom report tree that matches your company’s chart of accounts structure. Using the FRx drag and drop feature, you can restructure your cost centers, or carve out new account segments not possible in your standard General Ledger, using a special "Cleaver" tool. After creating a report, you can print it, export it to an Excel worksheet, drill down to examine the details, or distribute it via e-mail.
FRx is recognized as a "best-of-breed" financial report writer, and is a market leader with more than 65,000 installations worldwide, 8,000 of which use Sage MAS 90 . FRx is also a critical success, and was recently named one of Accounting Today’s "Top 100 Accounting Software Products".
FRx Advanced Version
The FRX Advanced Version can be obtained through your SAGE Software reseller for an additional fee. The Advanced Version offers added reporting tree and reporting level flexibility, plus links allowing you to include external spreadsheet data in reports. You can also generate multi-company consolidation reports with FRx Advanced.
