Microsoft Access is a good complement to SAP reporting solutions.
The menu paths in SAP vary based on your installation versions. However, the ability to download an SAP report from SAP to an Excel file is available in all versions.
Access is great for combining data from multiple systems into a single report.
Access can produce mailing labels and charts via the helpful Report Wizard.
There is no security on data placed in Access, so be sure that any databases that store confidential information are stored on a secure drive.
