I am sure most users of Accpac have had a number of reports written but their business partners or in house IT people that massively enhance their ability to get meaningful information out of Accpac to make decisions etc.
Can a database be set up and all users are then able to submit their "generated reports" along with a short description that will allow others to utilise and download reports that the massive knowledge base of worldwide users has generated.
I am fairly certain most users / companies call for similar reports and such a database would be a huge boon in getting reports that you require on a timely basis. (I am aware we have over 100 custom reports (Some not good and others brilliant! - these could be the start of this database)
It may also provide ACCPAC tech with the basis of supplying a system with more / generally requested reports

Unfeasable (reports need to be updated with version change... who would be responsible for this?)
Sure changes may be required
But if each time someone uses the facility and downloads a report the count increments then ACCPAC will know what reports are being utilised and start adding them in to the standard reports that everyone will get as standard.
Not insurmountable and will make the package more usable "out the box" when reports are already in existance.
Hi Ian, have you looked at the Intelligence store? www.theintelligencestore.com/
I have seen a few reports available there to download, both paid and free.
