MUNIS Budget Reporting

No part of your financial picture gets more scrutiny than your budget reports. You require budget reports that truly meet the needs of a dynamic organization that serves many stakeholders. In order to achieve genuine understanding, reports must accurately reflect all the detail and nuances.

“Our budget reporting has a complex background structure and we needed to find a solution to pull all our budget schedules out of MUNIS. CRS worked with our staff diligently to make sure the reports were accurate and presented in a highly professional manner. We have been using those reports since 2008, and CRS has been there every year to make the necessary adjustments due to changes in our chart of accounts, state requirements, and a shift to biennial budgeting.”

—Budget Manager, City of Bainbridge Island, WA

CRS is a MUNIS reporting consultant that has been producing MUNIS Budget Reports since 2005. Our experience over the years tells us that while all municipal and school organizations are similar, each entity is different and requires custom reporting that meets regulations, ordinances and requests from governing bodies.

Report writing software like Crystal Reports and SSRS provide a direct connection to the MUNIS database where tables and database views can be used to construct reports that are not available in MUNIS. Along with detailed reports showing line-item information, these report writers use formulas and expressions to produce custom groups. With sub-totals and rolled-up information needed by administrators and officers, discussions lead to good decisions based on clear, accurate data.
