Is there a better way to get ELead Reporting data

[Rick Buffkin]

Hi guys and girls. I'm wondering if there is a easier or simpler way to get reporting data from ELead. The Scheduled reports are great but there really isn't a way to work with the dates. Most of them set to deliver a MTD report. Does anyone know if they have an API for their reporting? I've checked Fortellis and I'm not looking to pull raw data. I just want reporting data. We're building sale rep scorecards and using reports out of ELead. It would make my life alot easier if there was a reporting API.

Any ideas???

following. elead reports are the worst. i have to constantly export info and/or manually input the data into my own reports. and no trend reports at all. ugh

The only route we found for our dealer partners was for us to use the Fortellis APIs. Without going that route there was too much manual work involved with individual report creation on the dealer end. After our ETL process we load the data into the dealer's data warehouse so everything is unified and ready to create reports that way. We have a partner who built scorecards while also having an activity tracker dashboard: calls, emails, etc for the day.

I wish there was an easier way for dealers to do directly because as you mention most reports are MTD and a lot of partners are looking to use more for process/activity tracking for training purposes.
