Invoicing Report

Section overview​

This section allows a user to build a report, based on information from the issued invoices with a possibility to export data (.xls, .xlsx, and .csv). Since the Invoicing Report generates statistics according to invoices, if you delete an invoice, the data will be no longer present in the report. The report shows data according to the variables determined in the Invoice Templates section.

Invoicing Report buttons: export, chart.​

You can export data to a CSV or XLSx file, which contains only currently displayed data, with no automatic request to update data while exporting.

  1. To download a report in .csv, click on the Export to CSV export button above the report.
  2. To download a .xlsx file, click on the Export to XLSx export xls button above the report.
  3. You can check an actual date interval by clicking the Info info icon. The displayed data could be different from the Interval specified above if there is no data for the period.

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:
