Profit Report

Section overview

This section allows generating the profit report, which analyzes profitability data and defines profits between Reseller parties (companies and managers) and Clients belonging to the respective Reseller/Manager.

For example, when Manager_1 executes a profitability report, it allows seeing their origination customers sending traffic to Manager_2, who owns the actual terminator vendors. In this case, Reseller's permissions apply to every query, which guarantees that Manager_1 will not be able to see any actual name of a client belonging to another manager, or another party that restricts such access.

Side-by-side report

This tool allows building a report with side-by-side sub-reports. Use it to run a comparative analysis on the same page. It's helpful for reviewing multiple parameters, totals and compare results at different time intervals. The Compare Period option is designed to create a report that shows two sub-reports side-by-side.

To enable this option, click on the plus  icon next to the Period field and specify both intervals (Period 1/Period 2) for the report.

Then choose columns for the main and comparative period in the report Output form. When all required parameters are specified, click the Query button. 

To remove this filter, please click the delete  icon. 

You can modify a comparative mode by changing periods and columns. For example, to compare how different the profit of the two periods is, choose the Profit value from the Columns. Therefore, the final report splits Profit into separate columns (see screenshot below).

Sharing a Report

Each time you get a report output, the system generates a unique link in the format of "/view?id=<uniq-string>". It allows sharing data between the users, even if they belong to different resellers (the feature works similarly to Share by Link in Google Drive). 

The link refers to the report data valid for a specific moment.

Example: When you send a link to a report, you ensure the recipient would see the same data as you do. If you change data in the system (for example, perform rerating), the previously copied link to the report will display data valid for the moment of generation (even though the actual data is now different).

You can also view the additional information about the generated report by hovering over the Info icon, which is located under the Output section:
