Formulae
A major new feature in IFP3 is that all reports are formula-driven. This was
available to a limited extent in IFP2, but now there are formulae for:
-
Row subtotals
-
Crosstabulations
-
Variances and ratios
This new feature also provides noticeable performance improvements in Grid
Editors.
Other Improvements
-
All formulae are retained when exporting a report to Excel.
-
Much increased flexibility for exploding reports into component details with
associated drill-down options
-
Selection of any combination of items in creation of graphs from reports
-
Separate columns for item codes and descriptions – allows improved formatting
and more flexible sorting
-
Options to scale reports by 1000 or 1,000,000
-
Formatting options for selected cells on reports e.g. number formatting
