All reports the client is currently utilizing within their process will be reviewed by the Implementation Team, to determine if field reports or custom query reports are needed. If field reports, we review to determine which reports we may be able to combine for efficiency. If Query Reports, we setup the build with our development team, if purchased as part of your implementation cost.
