The FDS (Financial Desktop Services) application provides a desktop integrated solution for routine financial account status reviews typically performed by budget managers and others granted access to Wright State University's financial accounts. This application permits the client to present one or more of their accounts in various formats at various levels of detail. Each of these presentation views are then printable at the desktop or may be extracted into a spreadsheet file format. FDS also has TelCom Reports.
