QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Questions and answers regarding the FRx Upgrade Offer.
Q: What is the price of the BI360 upgrade offer for FRx customers?
A: NZ$1,295. No discounts are available for this offer.
Q: What is included in the BI360 upgrade offer for FRx customers?
A: It includes: The BI360 Reporting Module with 1 Report Designer user and 4 Report Player users as well as the pre-built, live integration to the General Ledger module in your ERP system. It also includes the new (optional and free) Staging functionality that speeds up report execution.
Q: How much will additional BI360 Designer, Player or other BI360 module licenses cost?

A: You can upgrade to the full ERP integration by paying the difference between the NZ $1,295 special offer price and the regular list price for the same users/reporting module.
Q: Will this offer include an FRx report conversion tool?
A: Yes, at no additional cost you can download the BI360 report conversion tool for FRx. This utility is planned for release at the end of Q2, 2014. It will convert most of an FRx report, but some manual adjustments/ additions will be expected for each report, somewhat similar to what you would need to do if y our convert FRx reports to Management Reporter. Many customers redesign their reports when they move from FRx to BI360, and in this case, there may not be any reason to sue the FRx report conversion utility.
Q: Can BI360 Reporting Module in this FRx upgrade offer also be used in conjunction with other BI360 modules, such as BI360 Planning, BI360 Portal (web-based reporting dashboards), BI360 Data Warehouse, as well as BI360 Multi-Company Module?
A: Yes. For all other BI360 modules, except BI360 Planning and BI360 Data Warehouse, you can simply purchase any of these modules and still use the offered $1,295 reporting module. The BI360 Multi-Company module comes with a special price for the FRx upgrade offer: Multi-Company module (2-4 companies) $995, Multi-Company module (5-24 companies) $1,995. For all use with BI360 Planning and BI360 Data Warehouse, you need to upgrade to the full BI360 reporting module and pay the price difference.
