Liberty Reports for Sage 100 by Jim Schuett

February 24, 2015 Written by Jim Schuett

FROM JIM SCHUETT, SAGE 100 CONTRACTOR (Master Builder) – REPORT WRITER

Something NEW is happening!

I have added “Liberty Reports” to my report writing options for Sage 100 Contractor, and am continuing to write in Sage 100’s Report Writer for the reports that work well inside the software. (See below the report for more info on Liberty Reports details.)

With Liberty Reports, I can write reports that can’t be done inside Sage 100 (Master Builder) Software.

I will be adding a lot of new Liberty Reports for sale in the very near future. Custom report requests always accepted.

This report, Job Status Report-Summary, is my version of report 6-1-1-21 in Sage 100, but much better.

The report is created in Excel, and the data is pulled from your Sage 100 company database.
You can change the job number, refresh the screen, and the new job’s data appears.
The report expands and contracts to accommodate the needed space for the various lists.
PDF copy attached.

Report LR-6-1-1-21

This report is offered at a special “Introductory” price of $250 (regularly $395) for the month of February 2015.

(Hopefully it will help with the one-time purchase cost of the Liberty Reports software.)

Liberty Reports is the latest generation of Event 1 Software’s Excel-based reporting technology.

Generate dynamic reports with your Sage 100 Contractor company data by transforming Excel into a powerful and intuitive reporting engine. I highly recommend Liberty Reports.
One time cost of $325 per concurrent user provides access to all your Liberty Reports, including 10 reports provided by Liberty Reports. (Annual maintenance fee of $81.25 required.)

Sage 100 Report Writing Book

Sage 100 Report Writing Book (270 Pages)

BOOK: “How To Write Custom Reports” in Sage 100 Contractor (Master Builder)

Click Here: Now Available for More Info

Report writing in Sage 100 Contractor (former Master Builder) can be difficult, but with some basic instruction, you will find it easier, and logical.In this instruction manual, I will try to make it as easy and readable, as possible, with lots of diagrams, and simple instructions. Feel free to go straight to the area you need for information, as you may
already know some of the basics. Most of what I learned came by trial and error (lots of error) as there was no documentation or manual beyond beginner’s instructions.

My goal is to provide the opportunity for you and others to enjoy report writing as much as I have over the years. It’s a very creative and challenging outlet: creating organized reports that are easy to read, and provide the data you need.

Price: $275 … plus shipping, (& sales tax, where applicable)

Welcome to our New Website

April 11, 2014 Written by Jim Schuett

Welcome to our new website: www.Sage100Reports.com

Lots is happening!

2014 will be a great year for us, and
we want to help make it a great year for you too!

Thank You for 12 years of working with you and providing you with valuable custom reports and consulting.

“The last 4 years I have devoted most of my time to helping one client get through the economic downturn, which has greatly limited my availability to you, and quite often, kept me from providing the lightning fast service I had always given. I apologize to you, and look forward serving you now with the great old-fashioned “Jim Schuett service” you came to expect from me over the last 12 years.”
