What is the equivalent in SMI of the reporting tree in FRX? How do you duplicate that functionality?

SMI has no equivalent of the Frx reporting tree.
since there isn't a "reporting tree" equivalent, does anyone have examples of reports generated using SMI that mimic reports generated using FRX with reporting trees in use? surely, there has to be a way to group information based upon companies and/or segments within the gl account. does this need to be performed using Excel once the basic report is generated?
Based on the PDF located here http://www.sagemas.com/~/media/Company/ERP/White%20Papers/MAS_Intelligence_Spec.pdf it appears that the Tree functionality now exists for SMI for MAS 90/200. The link for MAS 500 SMI also goes to this page.
On page 2 it says "View your organization any way you choose - At the click of a button, Reporting Trees allows you to model a reporting structure and view your organization in many different ways. Easily add or change reporting units without changing your financial data—accommodating reporting structures from simple to very sophisticated.
Does anyone know if this is shipping with MAS 500 v 7.4, or with a MU/SP?

What other financial reporting program would you recommend then?
I'm replying to this older post because I want to include updated information on Sage Intelligence (formerly named SMI) and how it can be used in place of FRx. There is a downloadable document that can be found in this link: https://learning.sageintelligence.com/sage-100-intermediate/docs-2016/ and includes how to convert your FRx reports to Sage Intelligence reports. The download also includes a small executable that enables you to convert your FRx Trees to Sage Intelligence trees. I hope this helps.
Thank you, Sandra.
Also in the Sage U SIR Financials course we teach how to use reporting trees as well as all sorts of other report design using the Report Designer
