A company's efficiency is directly related to the accuracy of its reports. The reports control the summarization of information. Access to accurate information regarding project status, billing and time usage is crucial to profitably manage projects. Tenrox provides a variety of reports to offer administrators access to live data reporting instantaneously. The reporting engine can be used by organizations to design new reports or customize existing ones, as well as add fields, labels and images as required; for more information on reports, see Displaying Reports and Dashboard View and the Tenrox Reports Guide.
