Overview

The Sales module's reports are generated from the Sales Reports window on the Sales page. Each report is an Excel file. You choose the report, the period and any filters, then when it should run: straight away, overnight, or on the 1st of every month. The finished file arrives in your notifications.

Report What it answers
Booking Revenue per Km What each completed booking earned against the kilometres it took.
Vehicle Revenue per Km What each vehicle earned against the kilometres it drove.
Quote Conversion by Sales Person How each sales person's quotes converted, month by month and depot by depot.
Customer Bookings and Quotes Every charter booking and quote for one customer, one row per trip.

The Sales module also has exports on its list pages, covered under Other Sales exports below.

Navigate to Sales, then choose Generate Sales Report from the triple dot menu in the page header.

  3. Under 1. Report, choose the report. A line beneath it says what the report contains.

  4. Under 2. Filters, choose a Period and any filters the report offers. Leave a filter empty to include everything.

  5. Under 3. Delivery, choose Run now, Run tonight or Every month. A line beneath the choice says when the file will arrive, and a summary of everything you chose follows it.

  6. Click Generate.

❕Note: Generate stays unavailable until the choices are complete: a Custom period needs both From and To, and Customer Bookings and Quotes needs a Customer.

Choosing the period

The From and To fields always show the dates the report will cover. They can be edited only when the Period is Custom.

Period Dates covered
Last month The previous calendar month. The default for most reports.
This month The current calendar month.
Last quarter The previous quarter.
Custom The From and To dates you enter. From must be on or before To.
Next 3 months Today to the same date three months on. Offered by Customer Bookings and Quotes only, and its default.
Previous month (relative to each run) Set automatically when you choose Every month. Each run covers the month before it.

Choosing when it runs

Delivery What happens
Run now The report starts straight away. A Report Ready notification arrives with the download, usually within a minute.
Run tonight The report waits for the overnight run, from 2:00 am, and is in your notifications in the morning. Choose it for a long date range or the whole fleet.
Every month The report runs at 3:00 am on the 1st of each month, for the month just ended, for the next twelve months. See Monthly reports below.

Times are in your head office's time zone.

Downloading the file

When a report is ready, a Report Ready notification arrives.

A Run now or Run tonight file can be downloaded for 7 days. Each monthly file can be downloaded for 35 days. If a report cannot be generated, a Report Failed notification arrives instead.
