How to build and customise a report.

Updated over a month ago

MC: This needs to be updated with the new reporting

When you create or edit a report you have several options to customise it. Below we guide you through these options so that you can design your report according to your preferences.

๐Ÿ“ŒTIP: Click the GIF below for a walkthrough of creating a new report in Futrli.


Rename a report

To edit the title of a report click on the current title name, enter the new title, then

click anywhere outside of the text box. The new name automatically saves.


Templates

You can use workplace templates, created by you and other users. Alternatively, you can use Futrli's own templates.

Just drag and drop the template onto your report to add it.


Widgets

Widgets are pre-built by Futrli and contain customer and supplier information.

You can drag and drop them into place and they populate with data automatically. You can also reposition and resize the widgets.


Builder

Instead of using the pre-built widgets you can create your own.

  • Drag and drop the widget onto your report

  • Add a dataset

  • Add data from the P&L, balance sheet or cash flow

  • Set a date range for the widget

Use our Build your own report widgets for more details on how to create your own widgets.


Text

You can add text sections to the report with a text block.

You can also:

  • Add the current time and date to the report by typing @REPORT_DATE

  • Add page numbers


Images

You can upload and then drag and drop images into the report.

Add new pages

Toward the top right of the report you have two options to add pages:

  • Add a new blank page

  • Duplicate page you're currently on

You can also delete a page you're currently on.


Page setup

On the top left is the page setup section which is where you can customise:

  • Orientation - Portrait, landscape or dashboard

  • Background colour

  • Paper size - A4, A5 or A6

  • Margins - These are in inches
    โ€‹
    You can select to show margins on the report


Other options

When you edit a report you can also:

  • Zoom in or out

  • Set period dates for all widgets

  • Print the report
