Why Crown Maple Loves SalesPad Quick Reports in Microsoft Dynamics GP

Quick reports make my life so much easier. They're fun; they're easy to use; you can make them whatever you want them to be, however you want them to be, and not only that, you can change them. You can change them whenever you want to fit the needs of my boss, Annette, who needs something different every single day, and it just makes it timesaving for me just because when she calls, I have to give her what she needs right away, and those reports make it so that I'm able to do it so she can do her job better.
