How ECS improves your Infor reporting
Improve. Prove. Empower.
Start with one fixed-fee improvement, get 30 days of the ECS Reporting Advantage included, and decide on day 30. Captions are on.
Choose your first improvement →How the Advantage works
Choose your first improvement
A fixed-fee package with a live workshop led by an ECS-qualified instructor, a mini-course for your team, and weekly check-ins. Your team makes the change on your own reports, with ECS guiding each step.
Get 30 days of the Advantage, included
After the workshop, ECS builds your starter improvement backlog, delivers your first Value Scorecard and holds a 60-minute working session on what to improve next. No extra charge.
Decide on day 30
Nothing renews on its own. Continue the Advantage month to month, add your next improvement, or stop. Whatever you choose, your backlog, scorecard and course access are yours to keep.
Budget Watch: from a delivered Infor report to a budget tool managers use
Tap any screenshot to see it full size.
From budget variance to the transactions behind it
In Budget Watch, a manager clicks an account to see its balance, then the transactions behind it, and can answer "why are we over?" without calling Finance.
Watch Budget Watch, start to finish
A short walkthrough of how your team builds Budget Watch from the delivered Infor report, and what managers see when it's done.

Budget Watch
Your team turns a delivered Infor report into a budget view department managers use to track their own budget, instead of asking Finance.
- Budget Watch in your own Birst, with drill to account and transaction detail
- Owner instructions for keeping it current
Report Tie-Out: AP to G/L
Your team learns to tie Accounts Payable to the General Ledger control account, trace anything that doesn't tie, and repeat the tie each month.
- ECS Accounts Payable Aging Template
- A runbook for the monthly tie
- A Reconciliation Roadmap for your other subledgers
Financial Statement Build
Your team builds one income statement or balance sheet from an ECS blueprint, and ECS checks it against the ledger at handover.
- Statement blueprint and build plan
- Foundations and Report Building course seats
Report Handover
Someone who built your reports has left. Your team documents each critical report with an owner, a record and a runbook.
- Report inventory and decision log
- A named owner and backup for each critical report
- A fix list for what needs attention
Conversion Gap Closure
Your team maps each old report the business still needs to the closest delivered Infor report, and classifies and plans every gap.
- Up to 20 old reports mapped, up to 4 adapted
- A record and runbook for each adapted report
- Decision log and gap list
Close Pack Setup
Your team sets up your month-end reports to run as one pack, in the right order, and runs it once with ECS during a live close.
- Month-end report map, up to 12 reports
- Close pack runbook and live close log
- A fix list from the live close
What the Advantage does for you every month
ECS acts as your client-side reporting solution architect: we keep your Infor reporting improving, one prioritized item at a time, and show what changed.
Sample deliverables
Some items need a specialist. We arrange them inside your Advantage.
Short on people?
A qualified Infor analyst works alongside your team on a backlog item, in fixed blocks of hours. Priced separately and quoted after your review.
Configuration beyond reporting
For example, Birst security so each manager sees only their department, or Reconciliation Management setup alongside a tie-out. Quoted by the partner.
Outside ECS's lane
Non-Infor tools and business-process work go to a specialist we trust. No referral fee charged to you.
How it stays simple for you
On day 30, you decide

Add your next improvement
Pick another package. It joins the same backlog and Client Hub.
Stop and keep everything
Your backlog, scorecard, blueprints and course access stay yours. Come back any time.
