Find out how our clients Amey and Dorset Council have benefited from Query Manager, which has had a huge impact on their HR and Payroll reporting

"Benefits that Query Manager brings to our business is being able to react in real time. So rather than having to wait let's say for the payroll to run to get payroll statistics, we actually report out hourly rates that we can charge week-on-week, without having to wait for payroll to run.

Query Manager has enabled us to remove that need for technical people to do bits of work. So it empowers our business users - a lot of them are in my team or in different teams throughout the company - to be able to run reports, create reports and interact with external companies.

When I first saw Query Manager: you can mix InfoType and other results together, which was great, but also you can access all other parts of the system and get to tables you can't normally access from SAP very easily. And also we can automate things. So a payroll team will have a lot of validation reports and error reports, and they can all be created as a single report. And then automated so that they run overnight.

In the morning, the correct HR pay teams get their reports, and no one's had to do anything. So it's all happened automatically, so that's been brilliant.

The time saved is massive. So we've automated probably sixty, seventy percent of a lot of our processes around data using Query Manager in the HR space.

It increasingly means that we don't have to do things manually; it can all be automated, which is a great advantage to us.

The flexibility for senior execs to be able to request information in a graphical display. Now, we can use Query Manager, and we can literally build something in one or two days to get all that information out in one report. And more often than not that report then is used for other things.

We've got a longstanding relationship with EPI-USE Labs. We feel that we get treated as a partner by them.

I think the reason we decided to use EPI-USE Labs with Query Manager 4 instinctively was the support that came with it. A lot of firms would come in and sell us a product, do the configuration, and simply walk away, and that's never been the case with any of the EPI-USE Labs' products that we've had. We also use Data Sync Manager as well.

So the efficiency around how we use Query Manager has driven a lot of cost and time saved.

I was really happy to have it because it made a big difference to us."
