Before you start

Check these items before changing participant, billing or compliance records.

  • Know the report question and date range.
  • Confirm whether you need operational or financial permissions.
  • Decide whether you need a one off export or a reusable custom report.

Steps

Follow this workflow.

1

Open Reports

Go to Reports and choose the report area that matches your question, such as billable hours, participant summary, case note compliance or budget utilisation.

2

Set filters

Choose date range, participants, staff, status, category or funding route filters. Coordinator views are scoped to their allowed records.

3

Review the result

Check totals, charts, rows and outliers. Compare unusual results with source records before making decisions.

4

Export if needed

Use CSV or available export options when the report needs to be shared, reconciled or stored.

5

Build a custom report for repeat questions

Use Custom Reports or Report Builder when the same fields and filters will be reused by the team.

Expected outcome

Reports answer a clear operational or financial question and can be reused or exported where needed.
