SaperaBI is a Business Intelligence module that brings your Sapera data together in ready-made, interactive reports, so you can analyse your business across sales, finance, inventory, purchasing and time — without building the reports yourself.
Unlike the printouts you know, the reports are interactive: you can click down into the numbers (drill-down), filter instantly and change perspective as you go — e.g. from total revenue down to the individual product, customer or department — without producing a new printout.
Data refreshes automatically after each synchronisation. When data was last refreshed is shown on the Home page.
The report is divided into tabs. Here are all the pages, grouped by purpose — each has its own guide.
