Grantees can use IDIS reports to manage their CPD formula grant programs more effectively. Some reports provide information on program accomplishments and disbursements, while others help reconcile records with local reporting systems.

Reports may be downloaded and formatted to print on standard paper or converted into standard word processing and spreadsheet files.

Each report brings information together in a unique way by subject, program year, program, or project.

For instance, the List of Activities report (PR02) aggregates data on activity status, activity drawdown information, and balances. It gives information that allows a grantee to determine the progress of an activity, monitor the amount of funds by program that are funded and drawn for an activity, and ensure that activities are being completed in a timely manner.

Reports can also help grantees meet citizen participation requirements and HUD's End of Year Reporting requirements.

For example, the HUD Grants and Program Income report (PR01), gives information for all program funds and fund types for each program year including program income. This report gives information that helps fulfill Citizen Participation requirements to report on the amount of funds it has available for the program year (including program income, how much was committed, and how much was spent).
