And, even better – on an automated schedule. Here's how to get the intelligence out of your database to build the reports you need.   For example, a distributor needs to compile a monthly report to analyze and drive their business. ## ![how to get the intelligence out of your database](https://blog.southeastcomputers.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Images/idea_comes_to_man_from_computer.jpg?width=259&name=idea_comes_to_man_from_computer.jpg "how to get the intelligence out of your database")Business Intelligence Changes How You Do Reporting Before [business intelligence tools](https://blog.southeastcomputers.com/use-business-intelligence-tools-to-give-your-business-an-iq-boost), an employee would spend several days every month compiling data from multiple reports into a single actionable report. They then presented the data as a business status report.   Southeast Computer Solutions designed and created an extensive reporting tool that will change the way you do monthly reports. Using the Excel add-in version of Sage Enterprise Intelligence (SEI), their tool integrates with Sage 300, Sage 500, and Sage Enterprise Management (Sage X3). By leveraging the scheduler functionality, you can schedule reports to be ready when you need them. ## Business Intelligence Saves You Money, Time, and Effort For one company, using this reporting tool on a monthly basis resulted in a savings of approximately $15,000 per year. In addition to saving money, you gain back the time and effort you would have spent doing the report manually; you can now allocate that money, time, and effort to more valuable, strategically oriented tasks.   Business Intelligence tools, when integrated with Sage software, provide great ways to mine and transcribe data. Once the data has been collected and organized by industry standards, you can "get to the bottom” of the data and make smarter business decisions.

By simply using the available pivot functionality, you'll open the doors to a new world of daily, monthly, and yearly comparative analysis possibilities.   Also, with a push of a finger, data comes to life and gives you the opportunity to make decisions using the mobile application on your favorite tablet or smartphone.   Just imagine what this tool can do for your bottom line!                      How can Sage Business Intelligence tools like Sage Enterprise Intelligence save your company money and make you more profitable than ever?
