Reports & Insights

Dashboards, financial statements and month-end reports for your clients.

Dashboards

Dashboards:

Your Dashboards at a glance

Dashboards is a read-only snapshot of your cash, income, burn and runway for one period. Here is what every card shows and where each one leads.

Dashboards:

How Runway, Net Burn and Total Cash are calculated

The exact formulas behind the cash cards on Dashboards, which accounts they count, and why Runway sometimes reads No cash burn.

Dashboards:

Explore Expenses, Revenue and Cost of Revenue

Three pages break one part of your Profit & Loss down by category and by vendor or customer, with what grew, what shrank and the transactions behind it.

Dashboards:

Choosing a reporting period

One period picker sets the dates on Dashboards, Financials, Custom Reports and most other pages. Here are the presets, custom ranges and how the arrows step.
