[Sage 300 ERP 2014 Intelligence Reporting](https://www.equationtech.us/sage-accpac/reporting/sage-accpac-intelligence/) features a new Report Designer module, a fresh new look, updated reports, and more. Let’s take a closer look.

## **A New Interface & Faster Performance**

Based on valuable customer feedback, Sage 300 ERP (Accpac) Intelligence Reporting features a new user interface, ribbon style menu, informative icons, and descriptive labels for each function.

You’ll also notice that right-click menus in the **Report Manager** have been simplified including these updates:

- The Right-click options “Run Sample” and “Refresh” are now accessible through the Home tab.
- The Labels “Create and Link Template” and “Purge Instance History” have been replaced by “Save Excel Template” and “Clear Report History.”

But perhaps most important is the implementation of new **In-Memory Technology** that provides a faster, more responsive experience when running and designing reports.

## **More Control Over Financial Reports**

With the new **Report Designer**, you now have two options for creating and designing financial reports depending on how comfortable you are with Excel.

For novice users of Excel, the easy-to-use **Layout Generator **provides a set of standard layouts that you can edit to suit your unique reporting needs to get up and running quickly.

For advanced users of Excel, the new **Task Pane **provides maximum control and flexibility over financial report layouts with direct and dynamic access to General Ledger data along with data lists, formulas, and reporting trees.

## **Other Notable Enhancements**

- **Four New Financial Report Templates - **including Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Financial Ratio Report, and General Ledger Forecasting Report.
- A new **Profitability Dashboard **with visual graphics to help you identify high volume products, top performing salespeople, and trend lines.
- **Updated look & feel of Standard Reports - **modernized for a cleaner look and better report flow.
- **Updated Compatibility **- Intelligence Reporting is now compatible with the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Excel 2007, 2010, and 2013.
