In addition to the new Custom Reports module described here, the existing iRise Avatar™ Custom Reporting tab will continue to be available.
Overview
The Custom Reports module provides you with a collection of predefined reports that you can use out of the box to run reports for your iRise projects.
These reports are also completely customizable. Review the Customizing Reports article to see how you can create your own reports or tailor the existing reports to reflect the project information and formatting that you need.
Share reports for your project with your whole team via link, Word export, or printed copy.
