Reports
A successful project includes at least one report. Reports allow us to break down the overall data deliverables into smaller, manageable chunks. For example, a project requiring a list of all McDonald's locations in the United States can be split into reports for each state. The organization of the overall data into reports is driven by the customer’s needs, with Grepsr providing suggestions on best practices. Once all the requirements are confirmed, a report is created on the Grepsr side for clients to access and consume the extracted data.
