Report Designer
Report Designer gives you the ability to quickly and easily modify Sage Timberline Office's 500-plus reports or create your own.

Building reports is as easy as pointing and clicking on any field in Sage Timberline Office database and dropping it into the report template. Reports can be totaled at any level, and conditions can be applied to print only the information you want to see.

Once designed, reports can be placed on the main toolbar, which can be customized for each employee, giving them quick and easy access to the reports and inquiries they use most often. For added convenience, you can also create macros to print a specific set of reports with a single click of the mouse. For example, use a macro to generate a rent roll or a series of job cost reports for a project manager — while you continue working on other tasks.

Field selection
Take advantage of Report Designer's point-and-click interface to choose and position the fields you want for your report.

  • Access data fields from throughout accounting.
  • Click on data fields to add them to a graphical report template.
  • Drag and drop fields to position them within the report template.

Custom content
Once you've chosen the data fields you want to include, customize the report further to present exactly the information that people inside — and outside — your company need to see.

  • Choose from hundreds of provided formulas or create your own to crunch the numbers.
  • Insert conditions to print only the information you want.
  • Place printed totals and summarized information in any order.
  • Enter text, headings and comments to clarify report output for readers
  • Store report totals as fields for use in designs and quick formulas.

  • Change font type, size, and color.
  • Use bold, italic, and underline formatting.
