Run reports and export the data
Read the firm's analytics — workload, deadlines, client risk, on-time performance — and export the numbers behind them.
Who this is for: owners and managers. Employees see reports only if the firm's owner grants their role report permissions.
Before you start
- You need to be signed in. Reports cover your own firm's data only.
- What you see depends on two things: your role's report permissions (set by the firm owner; the owner always sees everything) and your firm's plan (some reports and export formats name the plan that unlocks them).
Steps
- Open the Reports page. You land on the first tab your role can see. There are five tabs: Overview, Workload, Deadlines, Clients, and Performance.
- Read the tab you need:
- Overview: firm health right now — active and overdue tasks, this month's completion rate, average days to complete over the last 30 days — plus blocked tasks (work waiting on a client or not yet started, due within 14 days).
- Workload: how work is distributed across the team. Unassigned tasks are counted separately, and anyone carrying more than 20% of all overdue tasks is flagged.
- Deadlines: the next 60 days of deadlines in four windows (this week, next week, this month, next month), grouped by task type so seasonal crunches stand out.
- Clients: clients ranked by operational drag — a risk score built from overdue work, tasks waiting on the client, and slower-than-average completion — labeled high, medium, or low.
- Performance: on-time rate per task type over the last 12 months (anything under 90% is flagged), a 12-month productivity trend with this-month vs last-month, and a compliance overview across five categories split federal/provincial.
- To export, use the export button on a report and pick a format: CSV, Excel, or PDF. Formats your plan does not include appear locked.
What can go wrong
- If you see "access denied" instead of reports: your role has no report permission. The firm owner can grant report access per role in settings.
- If a report shows an upgrade notice instead of data: that report is not in your firm's plan; the notice names the plan that includes it.
- If the export button is disabled or a format is locked: your plan includes no export format (or not that one). CSV and Excel arrive at a lower plan than PDF.
- If exporting does nothing but shows a warning: the report has zero rows; an empty file is never produced.
Limits
- Employees have no report access by default; access is granted per role by the firm owner.
- Report windows are bounded on purpose: average completion time looks at the last 30 days, performance and productivity at the last 12 months, and client health at the last 24 months.
- On-time means completed on or before the due date.
