I am looking to create a quick report or lobby that will help with monitoring purchase expenditure.

We have a number of report requests, but am wondering how others tackle this issue?

Do you use a different solution outside of IFS? 

Have you found lobbies/quick reports that are suitable?

My initial thought was to use a report based off purchase groups, but one of the issues i am having is spend where no purchase order has been created. 

I have noticed you can manually add purchase groups to the ‘Purchase’ tab on the supplier record which I could report on from the GL ledger and use the purchase group attached to the supplier but i am unsure of the effect of updating these purchase groups. Does it affect any purchase requistion/orders?

Any help appreciated
