Excerpt

The Report Generator is a neat tool for running CSS reports to keep track on products, stock, payments, and receipts. A report can be designed so a user with access can group and sort report fields to suit specific purposes and if enabled for Report Subscription, it can be scheduled to be generated and emailed to select recipients on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.
