Lunch And Reports

Mary Aquino

Imagine this—you are out to lunch at your favorite bistro. Your delicious entrée just arrived at the table, and the waiter has refilled your drink. While chatting with your co-workers, the conversation comes up about budget. They start asking questions such as, “Did fiscal period four show an improvement over period three?” You whip out your phone and immediately have an answer to that question. Yes, you can do that if you have Financial Edge NXT.

I love the ability to log into FE NXT on my phone or tablet to review reports and analyze data!!!  This has been a great feature for me and I use this more and more each month.
