Using FRx or Management Reporter for Nonprofit Financials

July 5, 2011 By Jan Lenoir Harrigan CPA 8 Comments

I've done a lot of work for nonprofits over the last couple of years, and I've come to one conclusion—they're all different! Just like for-profit companies, they each have their own idiosyncracies and their own reporting requirements. What a surprise, huh. But there are some … [Read more...]

FRx for AX deadline—need more drilldown viewers?

March 18, 2011 By Jan Lenoir Harrigan CPA Leave a Comment

Word on the street is that AX is coming off the price list on April 1, 2011. Heads up—that means that you won't be able to buy more licenses. Maybe more importantly, more drilldown viewer licenses. If you plan to stick with FRx for a while, you've got just a couple of … [Read more...]

March 18, 2011 By Jan Lenoir Harrigan CPA 8 Comments

Got a new account that won't appear on a report?   You've added it to your chart of accounts, and to your FRx row format. You know you have data posted to it. But it just won't show up on the report no matter what you try. Same thing for new budget book … [Read more...]

About

Hey! I'm a CPA and I specialize in Management Reporter and FRx. [Sometimes with a side of snark.] I've been doing this for 22 years (yikes). But when I'm not working I can be found reveling in live music & pizza trailers at home in Austin Texas! —Jan Lenoir Harrigan More

All Hat, No Cattle?

Watch out—a few unscrupulous consultants are lifting copyrighted original content from several sites, this one included, and passing it off as their own. I'm hacked off and I don't mind naming names. Bottom line—be very careful about whom you hire!

"If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur."
—Red Adair

Who I Work With

I work with zillions of companies who run Dynamics GP, AX and SL.

And lots of other consultants.

So I work with accountants who need accurate financials to help close the books. Not to mention present to the Board.

I don't sell or install MR. [How smart am I?]

FRx is Toast

FRx is toast—and I hope you're getting rid of it soon—but just in case someone still needs to learn it:

  • FRx in 8 Hours—Introduction 
  • FRx in 8 Hours—Intermediate

BTW, if you're on Dynamics, you can migrate to MR, but you should know there are other options. Choose what's best for you.

New to MR?

Here are 3 essentials to know before you start.

Background—back in the day, FRx was a famous midmarket report writer from a small agile company in Colorado. Then it got acquired. [Sigh]

Now it's owned by Microsoft. They rewrote it and rebranded it Management Reporter.

The two are very much alike and much of the FRx content here also applies to MR.
