How Top Finance Leaders Future-Proof Their Financial Reporting

Convert from Management Reporter in Just 3 Steps

For years, Microsoft’s Management Reporter (MR) was the go-to tool for financial reporting. But time has caught up with it. Microsoft ended development and support long ago, leaving finance teams to rely on outdated technology that doesn’t align with today’s needs. Worse yet, Management Reporter isn’t available for cloud-based systems like Dynamics 365 Business Central, creating an even bigger gap for companies planning their ERP future.

 

If you’ve built countless reports in MR, the thought of recreating them in a new system may feel daunting. Starting over means weeks—or even months—of wasted effort, not to mention the risk of errors and disruption. FYIsoft offers a better way forward. With our proprietary Management Reporter Conversion Tool in conjunction with ReportFYI, you can protect the investment you’ve already made while upgrading to a future-ready reporting solution that saves time, scales with your business, and empowers finance teams to work faster and smarter.

 

Protect the Work You’ve Already Done

One of the biggest fears finance leaders face when replacing MR is losing years of hard work. Countless hours have gone into building reports, fine-tuning organizational trees, and customizing rows and columns to deliver exactly the insights your business needs. Recreating that work from scratch is not only time-consuming but also introduces unnecessary risk at a critical time.

FYIsoft eliminates that fear. Our platform is designed to look and feel familiar, so your finance team won’t face a steep learning curve. Rows, columns, and organizational structures carry over, which means your team can pick up right where they left off.

The real game-changer is FYIsoft’s proprietary Conversion Tool. Unlike other solutions that require manual report rebuilding, our tool can automatically convert up to 85% of your existing MR reports. That means you’re not discarding years of investment—you’re carrying it forward into a modern platform. The time savings alone can be measured in weeks, freeing your finance team to focus on delivering insights instead of recreating reports.

 

How the Conversion Tool Works in 3 Simple Steps

Migrating away from MR doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, FYIsoft has simplified the process into just three steps:

  1. Upload your files: Start by securely uploading your existing Management Reporter files and general ledger tables to FYIsoft’s protected site. Security is a top priority, so you can trust your financial data is safe throughout the process.
  2. Convert with automation: Once uploaded, FYIsoft’s proprietary mapping engine automatically translates your MR reports into FYIsoft’s modern reporting environment. This is where the magic happens—dozens of reports that would otherwise require manual recreation are converted instantly.
  3. Validate with experts: Finally, FYIsoft’s team of experts works alongside you to validate and finalize the converted reports. This ensures accuracy and completeness without requiring your finance team to manually rebuild reports line by line.

The result? Presentation-ready reports delivered in a fraction of the time. With FYIsoft, you avoid weeks of tedious work and give your finance team immediate access to a platform built for the future. Best of all, because the format is familiar, your team won’t need extensive retraining. The transition is seamless.

 

Built for Finance Teams Who Need More, Faster

Replacing MR isn’t just about avoiding risk—it’s about gaining a competitive edge with a reporting solution that keeps pace with your business. FYIsoft was designed from the ground up for finance professionals, with features that go far beyond what MR ever offered.

  • Save weeks every cycle: Automated report conversion, distribution, and formatting eliminate repetitive, manual tasks. Instead of spending days preparing reports, your finance team can redirect their focus to analysis and strategy.
  • Cut reporting time by 50% or more: FYIsoft customers, including Business Central users, have seen reporting cycles cut in half. That means you’ll get accurate insights into performance faster than ever, enabling more agile decision-making.
  • Scale without limits: Whether you need to consolidate reports across multiple entities, manage multi-currency requirements, or meet complex compliance needs, FYIsoft has you covered. Enterprise-grade security ensures your data is protected while scalability ensures you’ll never outgrow the platform.

With MR, you’re stuck in the past. With FYIsoft, you gain a reporting engine built for modern finance teams that demand speed, accuracy, and flexibility.

 

Why Acting Now Matters

Every reporting cycle you run in MR puts your business at greater risk. Not only is the software outdated and unsupported, but it also creates bottlenecks that slow down your team and limit your ability to respond quickly to changing conditions. For companies moving to Dynamics 365 Business Central, the decision is even more urgent: MR isn’t available in the cloud, so delaying migration only delays your ability to get the most out of your ERP investment.

The longer you wait, the more your finance team is forced to work around MR’s limitations. That means wasted time, duplicated effort, and potential errors that can impact compliance and performance. FYIsoft’s Conversion Tool makes it possible to move forward now—without disruption and without losing the work you’ve already put in.
