What is a good reporting tool for Finance in D365 f&o to look at all the finance data comprehensively ?

2

The best reporting tool for finance in Dynamics 365 Finance & Operations (D365 F&O) depends on your needs, but a combination of tools is often ideal. For core financial statements like balance sheets and P&L reports, the built-in Financial Reporter (Management Reporter) is widely used and deeply integrated with the General Ledger. For interactive dashboards and advanced visualizations across both financial and operational data, Power BI is highly effective, especially when connected via Azure Data Lake or BYOD. Finance users also benefit from the Excel add-in, which allows for real-time, ad-hoc analysis of transactional data in a familiar format. Together, these tools provide a comprehensive view of financial performance and support both strategic and operational decision-making.

If you’re looking for something more Excel-friendly, Jet Reports or Atlas might be worth a look. Jet works well with OData for quick access to finance data without too much setup. Atlas is great if you’re dealing with multiple companies or complex dimensions, finance teams usually pick it up fast.

Not a replacement for Power BI, but a solid add-on if you want more flexibility inside Excel.

We are looking for a tool that can do all encompassing Financial reporting using the data from D365. Not excel based.

Thanks

Has anyone used Solver? We are presently looking into this as an option for both Reporting (standard and customized), and Planning & Analysis.
