Salesforce Reporting in Northpass

Using Salesforce's Reporting tools combined with the Northpass Salesforce integration, you can include Enrollment data in your reports. In the example below, you will create an Account-level report that includes progress data on each of the Contacts associated with that account.

Note: Your Salesforce interface may differ depending on the customizations that have been made in your instance.
