Currently, when a new GL account is created and posted to in MAS 500, SMI doesn't automatically bring in the account into any report that's been pre-generated and saved in the template. Furthermore, the Add Accounts wizard doesn't function correctly - sometimes it fails to list the missing accounts, but it always shows all accounts, rendering it pretty useless.
It's critical for efficient financial report production that SMI automatically adds new accounts. Without this key functionality, reports will be wrong.
Note: In FRx, new accounts are automatically added when the report is designed correctly, using ranges of accounts. Seems like SMI should be able to do this even more easily since it uses the Account Group setup in MAS 500.

Report Designer Add-In will solve this by allowing users to design reports to pull in ranges of accounts by powerful account rules.
