How to Run a Report

  1. Navigate to Reporting → Reports → Run Reports
  2. Select a report from the catalog dropdown or search by name
  3. Set parameters:
ParameterDescription
Business Unit(s)Select one or more business units (multi-select with chips)
Date RangeStart and end date, or select a preset
Additional FiltersReport-specific filters (status, product type, currency, etc.)
  1. Click Run Report
  2. The report renders in a data table below the parameter form

Date Presets

Date presets are reusable configurations that resolve to specific date ranges:

PresetResolves To
TodayCurrent business day
This WeekMonday to today
This Month1st of current month to today
Last MonthFull previous month
This QuarterStart of current quarter to today
Last QuarterFull previous quarter
Year to Date1st January to today
Last YearFull previous calendar year
CustomUser-defined start and end dates

TIP

Date presets are fetched from the database and can be customised by administrators. The system resolves date tokens (like "start of current month") to actual dates at runtime.

Multi-Business Unit Selection

The business unit selector allows you to:

  • Select a single branch for branch-level reporting
  • Select multiple branches for a combined view
  • Select all visible units for consolidated reporting

Selected business units appear as chips that can be individually removed.

Report Output

Reports render as interactive data tables with:

  • Sortable columns — Click column headers to sort
  • Column filters — Filter within specific columns
  • Pagination — Navigate through large result sets
  • Row count — Total number of records

Drill-Down

For reports that support it, you can right-click on a row to access drill-down options. This opens a modal showing the underlying detail records that make up the summary figure.

For example, drilling down on a balance sheet line item shows the individual journal entries contributing to that balance.

Saving Presets

If you frequently run the same report with the same parameters, save it as a preset:

  1. Configure the report parameters
  2. Click Save as Preset
  3. Name the preset
  4. Next time, select the preset to auto-fill all parameters
