Customer Dashboard Report

The Customer Dashboard report is your go-to place for answering customer-level questions without running multiple reports. Available to be run for one customer at a time, this report allows you to analyze all transactions, projects, timesheets, expenses and fixed amounts linked to a specific customer on one page.

A few reasons to use this report:

  • For a specific customer, keep track of all customer-related information on one page with the ability to drill down to the lowest level. Save & share the report with management.
  • Schedule a monthly report to keep an eye on all projects, transactions, and billables for a specific customer.
  • Keep track of all timesheets, expenses, fixed amounts and invoices linked to a specific customer without running multiple reports.

Report Display

The Customer Dashboard report organizes all information related to a specific customer in 5 tabs:

  • Transactions
  • Projects
  • Timesheets
  • Expenses
  • Fixed Amounts

The header of each tab contains a summary of the information inside it.

Report Parameters

While this report runs by default for all time, you can choose from custom date ranges, along with other useful report parameters.

Customers: Select the customer you want to run the report for. Since this report runs for one customer at a time, you can only select one customer in this parameter.

Billable to Customer: If this checkbox is checked, the “Spent Amount” and “Time Amount” columns in the Projects tab are calculated based on Billable Hourly Rate rather than the Hourly Cost Rate. (By default, this is unchecked)

Project Archive Status: Avaza allows you to separate inactive/completed projects from active projects by “archiving” them.

Use this parameter to choose whether you wish to include just Active or Archived projects (or both) in the report.

Time Format: Choose whether the report output should show hours in hh:mm or hh.mm (decimal).

Rounding: This checkbox applies timesheet rounding to the report based on your account settings. This is useful to understand what the timesheet durations shown on the invoice will be, or to calculate billable amounts more accurately.

Learn more about Avaza’s timesheet rounding feature here.

Apply Expense Markup: Avaza supports adding both a percentage and/or fixed amount of markup on expenses.

Use the “Apply Expense Markup” checkbox to include markup amount for expense-related fields shown in the report. Helpful for understanding what the expense amounts shown on the invoice will be, or to calculate expected revenue more accurately.

Estimate Status: This parameter allows you to limit the Estimates shown in the report by their status. You can choose one or more of the available statuses, i.e Draft, Accepted, Sent, Converted, Expired, or Rejected. By default, estimates in all statuses for the selected customer will be included in the report.

Learn more about Avaza’s estimates module here.

Sales Invoice Status: This parameter allows you to limit the Invoices shown in the report by their status. You can choose one or more of the available statuses, i.e Draft, Sent, Late, Paid, Partially Paid, or Void. By default, Invoices in all statuses for the selected customer will be included in the report.
Learn more about Avaza’s invoicing module here.

Date Range: This parameter allows you to limit data on the selected customer within a certain date range. For example, if you select “Last Week” in this parameter, the report will only factor in:

  • Timesheets that were created in the last week for the selected customer
  • Expenses that were created in the last week for the selected customer
  • Fixed Amount Tasks that were created in the last week for the selected customer
  • Estimates, Invoices, Payments, and Credit Notes that were created in the last week for the selected customer

The only area not impacted by the Date Range parameter is the Projects tab. The following predefined date range options are available in this parameter:

  • This Week
  • This Month
  • Last Week
  • Last Month
  • Last 30 Days
  • Last 60 Days
  • Last 90 Days
  • Year to Date
  • Last Year
  • All Time (selected by default)
  • Custom Date Range (allows you to choose a custom date range in the next parameter)

Start & End Date: Optionally enter a custom Start and End date range for the “Date Range” parameter.

Project Budget based on Linked Invoices [checkbox]: Check this option to use the total value of linked invoice line items as the project budget for running the report. This does not change the actual project budget in Project Settings.

Note: This parameter will only work if the Project Budget is set to “No Budget” or “Total Project Fees” in the Project Settings page.

Flatten Report Tabs [checkbox]: Ideal for printing this report, this checkbox will split the individual tabs into separate tables for easy exporting.
