For most payroll controllers and accountants, these predefined reports usually result in a time-consuming puzzle when the desired content isn’t available in an existing report.
At Intect, we’ve set data free and made it easy for you to define the contents of your reports so they perfectly match your company’s needs. Read on as we walk you through how our reporting tool works and highlight the tangible benefits of being able to tailor your own reports.
How Reporting Works in Intect Insights
Our reporting tool, Intect Insights, is built on Excel functionality — and we’ve already connected Excel directly to your data.
In more technical terms, our API links Excel directly to your Intect data, giving you full freedom to define your own reports by combining data as needed.
Practically speaking, this means you can easily create reports on all relevant payroll data stored in Intect — quickly and efficiently — directly in Excel.
In other words, you get a report generator with full access to everything at once. Once you’ve created your own reports, you can update them all with a single click. With this simple access to live data, you’ll gain real-time insights in no time.
Using Excel’s built-in functionality, you can reconcile, visualize, and present the latest payroll data according to your individual preferences and requirements. That’s why we believe Intect’s new reporting tool is, quite simply, the payroll controller’s best friend.
You don’t need a complex reporting module to customize reports containing the exact data you need. You can skip wasting time searching through numerous predefined reports — now you can define reports entirely according to your own needs, no matter how specific they may be.
Quickly Create Better Data Overviews
By enabling you to design your own reports in Intect, you empower your payroll controller or accountant to work more effectively with your company’s data.
They’ll be able to gain the insights they need much faster — without the tedious administrative copy-and-paste work.
And most importantly: once your reports are set up, your custom monthly reporting is never more than a few clicks away.
Especially in companies with extensive reporting needs or detailed management reporting requirements, having the flexibility to create customized reports is essential.
Many systems struggle to provide transparency in their reports, as they are stored in a shared database — often resulting in hundreds of different reports and a lack of overview. This makes it difficult for users to find a specific report template that meets their needs.
With your own tailored templates, you avoid wasting time searching among countless report templates or paying a premium for specially developed reports from your system provider.
Optimization Through Automated Data Flow
When your Intect data is synchronized with your Excel template, you can update your overview with a single click — an efficient way to work with your company’s data.
Automating your data exports means fewer touch points, which ultimately reduces the risk of errors in your reporting.
If you want to take automation even further, you can use Excel macros to transform your reports into other formats, attach them, and send them to internal or external stakeholders — all in one workflow. The only limit is your imagination.
