Accelerated AP Invoice Aging: Tuning the Report or Replacing with High-Performance Blitz Report

Avatar photoCustomer Questions & Answers 5 replies

Our financial operations are being severely hindered by the performance of the standard ‘AP Invoice Aging’ report, which currently takes a disastrous four hours to complete across all our operating units . For proactive cash management and accurate liability forecasting, we need this data available within minutes, ideally no more than five. Aside from standard database indexing efforts, what specific tuning methodology or specialized EBS reporting tool is recommended to achieve this dramatic performance improvement for our critical daily aging extracts?
