Are you creating reports for a franchise business with multiple locations? If so, you may need to create reports from each location and roll-up reporting that shows results for different combinations of the business locations. Making a NinjaCat Account for each location of the franchise and organizing them into Account Groups makes your job so much easier. Account Groups in NinjaCat lets you add organization category fields to your accounts. By adding qualitative values to these fields you flexibly group your accounts in many different ways. The following will tell you how to create the category fields and qualitative values to group the accounts.
