AR sales invoice Analysis report

Use this report to review your AR sales invoices. The AR sales invoices Analysis report helps you analyze your sales from the perspective of revenue line items in the AR sales invoices. You can group line items across AR sales invoices and then perform your analysis. For example, this report can show you how much of a certain type of product our customers ordered from you over a specific period of time and which customers ordered that specific product.

For information on terms that may differ in your location, see Terminology across locales.

A report showing results for the default reporting period appears in your browser.
Optional: Select Customize to refine the report, and follow the steps in the following section, Customize and Run.

Customize and run

If you want to see every result for a particular category, do not make selections from any of the data entry boxes. You can run this report without entering any search information. If you do that, however, the report may take a long time to run and may return too many results to be useful.

Before running the report, you can select the time period and types of items to include as well as specify how you want the report to appear.

To customize and run a report:

Select the reporting period from the dropdown menu, or enter the start and end dates you want the report to cover. If you do not specify a reporting period, the system generates a report for the current month to date.

You can specify either the reporting period or the start and end dates, but not both.

Set the filters to get the specific data you want.

Filters enable you to include or exclude specific types of data in the report, such as supplier or supplier type. As a general rule, to get fewer and more precise results in your report, set more filters.

Format the report.
- Format options will vary from report to report. Generally, you can set the layout of the report and arrange how to group and display the data contained in the report.
Type a title, subtitle, and footer text for your report.
View, print, process and store, memorize, export, or customize the report or add it to the dashboard.

After you run the report, you can also either email the report to others or return to the report setup page to refine the results.

Time period

You can use one of the pre-defined reporting periods available from the Reporting Period and As of Date boxes, or create your own reporting period using the Start Date and End Date boxes.

To set the time period:

In the Time period section, do one of the following:

Use the Reporting period dropdown list to select the reporting period. Either enter a date in the As of date field or use the calendar tool to select a date.
Enter a specific Start date, End date, or both. Alternatively, use the calendar tool to select the desired dates.

If you complete all the time period fields (that is, if you fill in the Reporting period, As of date, Start date, and End date fields), Sage Intacct generates your report based on the start and end dates. It ignores the As of date.

The following table describes the fields in the Time period section.

Field	Description
Reporting period	These periods are relative to the As of date. All periods begin on the first day of the period, such as the first day of the month, quarter, or year that you select.
As of date	The date that Intacct will use as a baseline for the reporting period you select. Defaults to today's date.
Start date	Leave the Start date blank to include all information from the earliest date of your Intacct data up to and including the end date.
End date	Leave the End date blank to include all information from the start date up to today.
Prompt on run	Select this checkbox to force Intacct to wait for you (or anyone using this report) to enter a location, department, and/or time period before it will run the report.

Report filters

Use the filters to focus the results of your report. In effect, filters enable you to isolate and assemble just the data you want. You can set any combination of filters.

To set the filters to fine-tune your report results

To show results for a specific customer or range of customers, use the From customer and To customer dropdown lists.

How to use the From and To fields

All From and To field pairs work the same way. Use them to get search results in as broad or as fine a range as you need, from everything in the system down to a single specific object.

To run this report for a single object:

From the From dropdown list, select the object you want.
From the To dropdown list, select the same object.

To run this report for a specific range of objects:

From the From dropdown list, select the object that you want at the beginning of the range.
From the To dropdown list, select the object that you want at the end of the range.

To run this report for all objects:

Leave both fields blank.

If you have a large number of objects or the report takes too long to process, use the From and To fields to run a series of smaller reports. For example, you can run five reports, one each for objects whose names begin with A-E, then F-J, K-O, P-T, and U-Z.

An object is a catch-all term that refers to any specific data item in the system. Customers, suppliers, items, and accounts are all examples of objects.

To show results for a specific customer type, select the Customer type dropdown list, and then select the customer type you want the report to cover.
To show results for a specific account or range of accounts, use the From account and To account dropdown lists.

In a multi-entity environment, you can filter by location, department, or both.

To set location and department options:

To filter the report by geographic location, either enter the name of the region, country, state or territory, or city in the Location dropdown list. Or, select the location from the list.

Enter or select a location if you want to run this report at the top level. The system uses the location that you specify to determine the appropriate currency.
To filter the report by department within the company, enter the name of the department in the Department dropdown list. Or, select the department from the list.
If you want the report to cover certain locations regardless of what's selected in the Location dropdown list, use the Show for dropdown list to select the locations for the report:
- All locations: To include data for all locations regardless of the entity that you're currently using.
- This location: To include data only for the entity that you're currently using.
- Child locations: To include data only for the locations that are child locations of your current entity. For example, if your current entity is California, and you have child locations for San Francisco and Los Angeles, use this option to have the report include data only for Los Angeles and California.

To see only sales made by a particular person, select that person from the Salesperson dropdown list.
To include additional detail about how the payment was made, such as the date and amount paid, select the Include receipt details checkbox. (You'll see these details on the far right side of the report.)
Select either Summary or Detail, depending on how much information you want to include in the report.
Select one of the following Show documents options:
Fully received: only show transactions for AR sales invoices that have been paid in full
Partially received: only show transactions for AR sales invoices that have been paid in part
Not received: only show transactions for AR sales invoices that have no payments against them
All: show all transactions

The following table describes each item in the Filters section of this report settings page:

Filter Box	Notes
From customer, To customer	Enables you to get data only for that specific customer or range of customers. By default these boxes are blank, which means the report will get results for all customers.
Customer type	Include data only for the type of customer specified. By default this box is blank, which means the report will include all customer types.
From account, To account	Enables you to get data only for that specific account or range of accounts. By default these boxes are blank, which means the report will get results for all accounts.
Territory	Limit report results to a specific territory.
Salesperson	Limit report results to a specific employee (salesperson).
Transaction currency	Limit report results to a specific transaction currency.
Location	Limit report results to a specific location. Only displays for multi-currency, multi-entity companies. This field is required for multi-entity companies.
Department	Limit report results to a specific department.
Individual report	Select this checkbox if you want each entity or department and/or location to have its own report page. Due to their potentially large size, reports with departments and locations on individual pages can be run offline only. Therefore, if you select the Individual report option, you can select only Process and store.
Prompt on run	Select this checkbox to force you (or anyone using this report) to enter a location, department, and/or time period before the report will run.
Show for	Select to show different views of the data, based on the location or entity you choose: All locations: This option shows the data that's posted to the location or entity and its children. This location: This option shows only the data that's posted to the location or entity you select. The data posted to any child location is not shown. Child locations: This option shows only the data that's posted to the child locations of the location or entity that you select. Any data that's posted to the parent location or entity is not shown. Example: Suppose your location is United States > California > San Francisco. All locations would show transactions for United States, California, and San Francisco. This location would show transactions for United States. Child locations would show transactions for California and San Francisco only.
Include receipt details	This option operates at the document level and shows how the AR sales invoice was paid, which is particularly useful when an AR sales invoice is paid with more than one cheque. By default this checkbox is unchecked, which means the report will NOT include receipt details.
Show	Summary: displays all of the accounts receivable types. Detail: displays additional columns and lines with significantly more detail (individual line items are shown for each customer along with details, such as their AR sales invoice number, description, department, location, allocation, transaction currency, transaction amount, total amount in their base currency, and so on).
Show documents	Fully received: only show transactions for AR sales invoices that have been paid in full Partially received: only show transactions for AR sales invoices that have been paid in part Not received: only show transactions for AR sales invoices that have no payments against them All: show all transactions
