vReports is an enterprise-grade reporting module for SuiteCRM that is easy to use, but hosts many advanced features. It includes helpful functions like Orgcharts, Bookmarks, and interactive graphics.
Your detailed, advanced reporting solution for SuiteCRM
vReports is an advanced reporting system that is integrated with SuiteCRM. It provides tabular and graphical presentation support. New reports can easily be generated by first-time users, although typically most users will “consume” the Reports. More experienced users can generate full multimedia interactive experiences.
vReports is very much about interaction, not only with users, but with databases, third-party applications, etc.

Manipulate results using PHP coding (for advanced users)

ValeDale Family of Applications
ValeDale Reports (vReports) is part of the overall ValeDale initiative. “Vale Dale” is a Spanish expression for “OK GO” and is pronounced as “BalleDalle.”
Most of the ValeDale family of applications uses as basis: "vCommon". This is a module that provides, as the name suggests, "common" functionality. This is a free module that by itself does not offer much new functionality, but it opens up many features for vReports and others.
- After defining a vReport, you can create a new menu-item under any existing module and make it directly accessible
- You can add any vReport to the DetailView of most SuiteCRM modules (and yes, this in SuiteCRM 7)
- Bookmarks!! Yes, you can create bookmarks of your favorite vReports and organize them in quickly accessible folders!
