Reports home: find the report you need

Reports turn your books into answers: how much you made, what you own and owe, where the cash went, who owes you money. Every report is ready-made and updates as your transactions come in, so there's nothing to build before you can read one.


This article helps you pick the right report and find it on the Reports home.

Where to find it

The Reports home


Tour of the page


The top of the Reports home. The numbers match the list below.


  1. Ask box. Ask Tabby Talk for any report in plain words.
  2. Suggested questions. Ready-made requests you can send with one click.
  3. Most used. Live previews of your three main statements.
  4. Saved reports. Reports you've saved with your own settings.
  5. New custom report. Starts a conversation with Tabby Talk about the report you need.
  6. All reports. The full list, with search and filters.


Most used


The three cards show this month's net profit, your equity as of today and this month's net change in cash. Each card has a trend line, the change against the prior period and two supporting figures.


Each card opens the full report.


Click a card to open the report for the same period.


Recently viewed


Once you've opened a few reports, a Recently viewed row appears under the cards with your last five. Click one to go straight back to it.


Your most recent reports, one click away.


Saved reports


A saved report keeps the report, date range and settings you picked. Each row shows its name, what it's based on, whether it's emailed on a schedule and when it last ran or was sent.


Two saved reports are emailed on a schedule. One is run by hand.


Click a saved report to open it with its settings applied. Point at a row and click the trash icon to remove it. To create one, see Save a report (in the article "Read, adjust, save and export a report").


Find a report


Scroll to All reports.


Every report, grouped by type.


  1. Find a report. Search by name, description or what you'd call it. Typing "aging" finds both aging reports.
  2. Filter. Show one group at a time.
  3. Favorites. Reports you've starred appear in their own group at the top.
  4. Star. Point at a report and click the star to pin it to Favorites. Click again to remove it.
  5. Badges. "New" marks a recent addition, "Popular" a common pick, and "US" a report for US businesses.


Search matches are highlighted.


Press Enter in the search box to open the first match.


Ask Tabby Talk for a report


Type a request in the ask box, such as "profit and loss for Q2 compared to last year", and press Enter. Tabby Talk opens with your request. The chips under the box do the same with one click: This quarter vs last, Top 5 expenses this year, Who owes me money? and Prepare tax-ready report.


If your search finds nothing, Tabby offers to build the report for you.
