Q&A guidance
1. How can Reapit Support help? Reapit Support can provide technical and functional guidance on how to use Power Reports on standard reporting queries - however they are not positioned to create reports for clients Where this is required, a consultancy service can be provided - see question 2 |
2. I have a complex requirement, should I still contact Reapit Support? Many reporting queries / requests can be fulfilled by the Reapit Support team and, after consulting the online help, they should continue to be your first port of call for standard queries However, if you have a complex reporting requirement, this should be discussed with your Reapit Client Success Manager (CSM) who can provide guidance and consultancy - your CSM has a broader and deeper understanding of your business and how you can best use Power Reporting and the Organiser to assist this |
3. I don't think a Power Report is able to give me the information I need - who do I contact? Power Reporting may not always be able to provide exactly what you need, you may need another form of report, such as an MI dashboard - in this scenario, Reapit Support will advise on this and, where possible, provide alternative options to achieve what is required |
4. Is there training available? Reporting is covered in all training courses for all roles at level 2 and above For more information on training sessions available, access Reapit IQ for more information: Reapit IQ homepage |
