On this page

The Financial Reports menu is used to open financial statements, ledger reports, aging reports, compliance reports, sales-related finance reports, and project reports.

What this screen is for

Use Reports in Finance when you need to review financial activity, reconcile supporting detail to the general ledger, prepare tax or compliance support, review aging balances, or analyze project activity.

Most reports are read-only review, copy, export, or print tools. A few menu entries open shared active screens. For example, Journal Entries opens the same screen used in GL & Close, where permitted users can post manual journal entries. Follow the linked screen documentation for those shared screens.

Screen path

Dashboard > Finance > Reports

The menu title is Financial Reports.

Who can use Finance Reports

The Finance section appears for users with one or more of these roles:

Role Finance Reports access
admin Can open Finance and Financial Reports.
executive Can open Finance and Financial Reports.

Report groups

The Financial Reports menu is organized into these groups.

Shared report pages

Several Financial Reports entries open screens that are also available from another Finance work center or another dashboard section. Those entries reuse one canonical doc page:

  • Journal Entries, General Ledger, and Chart of Accounts reuse GL & Close docs.
  • AR Aging Report, Overdue Invoices Report, Customer Statement, Daily Cash Receipts Report, Sales Analysis Report, and Invoice Report reuse Sales report docs.
  • AP Aging Report and PO Accruals reuse Finance Payables docs.

When website navigation is built, these reports can appear in the Finance Reports navigation while still linking to the canonical route above.

Current project report limitation

Project Activity Report and Project Summary Report are visible in the Financial Reports menu. As of this review, the screens load project choices but the report data source is not currently available. Users may see Error fetching project activity data or Error fetching project summary data until those reports are fully wired.

Project tracking itself is documented in Projects Overview, and project IDs can be assigned to manual journal entry lines.

What happens behind the scenes

Opening the Financial Reports menu does not change records.

Most report actions read current PAX data and format it for review, copy, or print. Shared active screens keep their normal behavior. For example, opening Journal Entries Overview from Reports still allows a permitted user to create a manual journal entry.

Report results can differ because reports use different bases:

Report type Common basis
Balance Sheet As-of date, fiscal balances, balance sheet account activity, and current-year net income.
Income Statement Revenue and expense activity by selected period or comparison periods.
Trial Balance Starting balances, period debits, period credits, and ending balances for a date range.
Aging reports Current open AR or AP balances by due-date age bucket.
Sales tax report Invoice dates, completed RMA dates, ship-to state, and tax-rate jurisdiction matching.
Revenue reconciliation Invoice detail compared to revenue-related GL postings.
1099 report Payments to vendors flagged as 1099 reportable, excluding credit card payments from reportable totals.

Troubleshooting

I do not see Finance Reports

Likely cause: Your user role does not include Finance access.

Safe fix: Ask an admin to review your roles. Finance Reports are available through the Finance dashboard section.

Contact support if: You have admin or executive access but still cannot see Finance Reports.

Report totals do not match another report

Likely cause: The reports may use different date bases, posting bases, status filters, account mappings, or open-balance logic.

Safe fix: Compare the report basis first. For example, AR Aging is based on current open invoice balances, while the General Ledger is based on posted journal entry lines.

Contact support if: The same population, date basis, and account basis still do not reconcile.

A report opens a screen where users can take action

Likely cause: Some Reports entries are shared operational screens, not passive reports.

Safe fix: Follow the canonical screen doc before using actions such as posting journal entries.

Contact support if: A user has access to an action they should not be allowed to perform.
