This comment is for Accpac HRMS 8.5 and relating to standard reports (HR. It has become very frustrating that exported reports (in excel) are completely different from the printed copies in terms of format and content. The content is even wrong. Numbers shown on the export and the ones on the printed copy are different. Absence average report, salary as of are some examples. I believe all standard reports have this problem, not just those two reports. I cannot live with the situation that whenever we need a report in excel format which happens very often, I have to rename all columns, delete unnecessary columns, add report name and date, format page, and correct errors. I cannot believe these types of problems could happen as it’s just very common sense that the exported version should be exactly the same as the printed version.

Another frustration is that most of the reports have no date. When we print out a report, we have to write down the date on the report. If we forget doing that, we have no way to tell which period coverage the report is for.
I was very impressed with the report catalogue presented to me last year. However, what I actually receive from the system is very different.
I would like Sage to look into the problems and have them resolved. Thank you
