Artisan provides three options for reports, which can all be viewed or printed from within Artisan:
Use one of the many built-in native reports, many of which have numerous options.
View pre-made custom reports from the Artisan Reports menu that were created using Crystal Reports using the included Crystal Reports viewer. Artisan comes with a few of these extra reports. You can contract CerTek to create a custom report for you or you can hire a third party. You can even share reports with your colleagues who are also using the same version of Artisan.
Create your own custom reports using Crystal Reports Designer (available separately).
