The Statistics facility lets you record user defined statistics. Recording statistics lets you include non-financial measures in reporting. You can record statistics for each period and break them down by BI Code and Group structure in the same way as General Ledger Codes.

Examples of non-financial measures include: 

• The number of customers per business line. 
• Floor area per dept.
• The number of support calls per month.

In addition, you can maintain Budgets and Revised Budgets for statistics.
