Reporting Fundamentals Part 1
The Salesforce Report Builder is easy to learn and hard to master. This course starts off by teaching you how to think about and approach your reporting needs before you build the first report.

This course is suitable for non-administrators as well as admins.
Taught every 6 weeks. This course is two hours.
Registration is per ORGANIZATION - add 1 to your cart, have as many employees as you like attend.

We will be using examples from the Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) to illustrate creation of different types of mailing list reports, so if you don’t use the NPSP the examples may be a little unclear.
If you’re new to Salesforce, please ensure you have at least taken our introductory course (the free “Salesforce Basics - Getting Started”) or are very familiar with Accounts, Contacts and Opportunities/Donations in the NPSP
This is a very hands-on course. You will be working in your real Salesforce.
We will ask for real reports you need to build and illustrate as many as possible during the course.
