Running Reports
The Run Reports page is the primary interface for executing reports on demand.
Navigation: Reporting → Reports → Run Reports
How to Run a Report
- Navigate to Reporting → Reports → Run Reports
- Select a report from the catalog dropdown or search by name
- Set parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Business Unit(s) | Select one or more business units (multi-select with chips) |
| Date Range | Start and end date, or select a preset |
| Additional Filters | Report-specific filters (status, product type, currency, etc.) |
- Click Run Report
- The report renders in a data table below the parameter form
Date Presets
Date presets are reusable configurations that resolve to specific date ranges:
| Preset | Resolves To |
|---|---|
| Today | Current business day |
| This Week | Monday to today |
| This Month | 1st of current month to today |
| Last Month | Full previous month |
| This Quarter | Start of current quarter to today |
| Last Quarter | Full previous quarter |
| Year to Date | 1st January to today |
| Last Year | Full previous calendar year |
| Custom | User-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.
Export Options
| Format | Description |

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

- Name the preset
- Next time, select the preset to auto-fill all parameters
