Financial Report Distribution Options

Posted on by Community Member

We are looking for report distribution solutions. Currently we use FRX to email financial reports to 300+ managers that are not on our domain. We are interested in what other companies are using for financial report distribution. We have looked at several FRX replacement options but so far no option makes distribution of reports simple or cost effective. Any solutions that you have found that work for your company?

Hi Martha,

I think you can achieve this by using Management reporter. Please click here to see a very good post by Calszone on the MR report distribution.

Yes. As suggested by Mr. Babu, you can use Management Reporter but it requires domain account to access the reports.

Hope this helps!!!

Martha,

The issue with MR 2012 vs. FRx is that it relies completely on Domain Authentication for the report distribution, no matter if Web based or by using the Reporter Viewer.. In your case you may to try with a SharePoint distribution where the reports can be saved towards a remote SharePoint server site... but then again, somehow you need to manage the security to access those reports.

300+ managers not being in a domain poses quite a challenge, as you may have to come up with a solution where you will have to send the reports individually (or by groups) by e-mail to the recipients.. Something for what MR 2012 was not written (not yet).
