Reporting
Overview
Of all the services and support MDS provides, reporting is likely to be the most useful fulfillment / communication function MDS clients take advantage of. Whether data is pre-formatted into user-friendly reports or presented as files the client works with, information needs to be of the right data set and must be accurate and timely. Though many clients like having data "pushed" to them by means of traditional e-mail, FTP, EDI, or Internet channels, MDS also provides "on-line reports and data access".

Online Reports
Clients can receive custom scripted reports or access the data to run their own reports on their own PC or remotely by means of any browser equipped web device. The importance of this capability is that it empowers business professionals and their customers with information available to them 24/7/365 to make sound decisions timed to produce the optimum sales, technical, promotional, marketing, or cost impact on a project.
