F9 from Infor is already integrated to XA R7.8, R9 both AM and IFM as well as Syteline.

It has been for years.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Financial Report Writers

Hello everyone,

I know this topic has come up before as I was searching thru the ML archives, but it seemed a bit dated.

Looking for some tips on acquiring a financial report writer to be used by the finance team - not IT.

Looking at traditional accounting reports, but also looking to report across the system, tapping into standard costing, item master, inventory, etc as accountants often do.

Most likely looking for a graphical tool that is not AS400 specific so
that it is portable (think Syteline in x years...)


I came up with this list, and am about to jump in feet first, but I would appreciate any tips on these or others.
1. Infor (looking to XA 9.X)
2. Advanced Logic Solutions, Inc.
3. Enterprise 21
4. Global Software's Spreadsheet Server and EDash
5. Jacana
6. FRx
7. Cognos


I am very open to anyone contacting me directly, as I know email can be tough to write experiences/opinions when you're busy.

I do not have problems with vendors contacting me directly either.
We are willing to do the setup if there is a good product (FRx, Cognos) that works, but lacks the mappings.

Thanks in advance for any input!
