Reports

Use Reports to display, save or print time, expense, cost or list type reports.

By default, the Reports view is available to all administrative users of the software. Those users who only have access to time and expense entry tools have their own version of the Reports view, which has a reduced set of reports and functions.

This topic only details how to run a report. For those users with the appropriate security rights, the report designer functions permit changes to be made to reports. You may also create a new report from scratch. These options are detailed in other topics (Modify a report, Create a new report).

To run a report:

1. Select Reports from the navigation bar (Reporting > Reports).

2. Click on the Public, Private or My Favorites tabReports are categorized as either Public, Private or Favorite, and are organized using the tabs at the top of the view. Public Reports contains all reports that are available to all administrative users, while Private Reports are your own reports.

3. Locate the report to run and click its Run icon at the far left of the screen.

4. If prompted, select the projects, dates, currency, etc., from the filters presented and then click the Run Report button. Details on the various filters available are located below.

5. Use the available controls to print, page through, open as PDF or export/save the report (described below). If displayed in the toolbar, you also have the option to schedule the report to be automatically run and e-mailed.

• Pie chart reports only show the 10 largest values as unique pieces. All additional values are grouped into an 11th piece labeled 'Others'.
