2. New eTaconic Reports Release Overview Why Change the Activity Reports?
Current eTaconic Activity Reports
Consolidates both summary and detailed inventory and billable (resource) activities into one report
As a result, this report was far too cumbersome to use as one report – very large files, not user friendly, etc.
Not downloadable in a more user friendly format
Unable to view resources for multiple weeks
Inability to compare to an invoice
Not enough animal information within colonies
Taconic recognized the need for another reporting mechanism to allow our customers to better monitor colony specific billable (resource) transactions and activities.
