Saved Reports
‘Saved Reports’ is a new feature that allows users to run their favorite reports much faster.
Properties often tend to use the same set of inputs each time they run a report and it can be time consuming to set the preferred inputs.
-
Saved reports allows users to save their preferred inputs to run reports faster.
-
Saved reports can also reduce the training issues where an admin can create a saved report and instruct their staff to run it with everything preconfigured the right way
Adding a New Saved Report
Saving a report requires 3 simple steps
- Select Inputs
- This is the first step a user does when running any report.
- Note – The ‘Save’ button is in Disabled state here.
Dynamic Date Selection
Date Inputs on all reports allow users to set various dynamic values (Today, Month to Date, Next 30 Days, etc.), so that when a report is run, the date criteria is relative to the current date.
For example – In the image above, the report is saved with Stay on Date = “This Month”.
If the report is run on any day in October, the date range will be set to October 1 – October 31. If it is run on any day in November, the date range will be set to Nov 1 to Nov 30.
Note – The only scenario when these dates will be ‘Hardcoded’ is when the user selects a ‘Custom Date’. In that case, the saved report will always open with those Custom dates selected.
- Run the Report: To save a report, the user is required to ‘Run the report’ successfully and only then, the ‘Save’ button is enabled. If the ‘Run Report’ action fails due to data not being available, the button is disabled
- Save the Report: Click “Save” to open the Save Report modal
- Provide a unique name for the saved report that is being created.
-
An error message is shown when a unique name is not provided.
-
Click “Save” to save the report and a ‘Success’ message pop-up in ‘Green’ is shown.

Multi Property Clients
Multi Property clients will see an additional ‘Property’ column, which displays the name of the property (or “All”), for which the report was saved.
The All selection will only grant a user access to the properties they have permission to see. Example:
-
Client has 3 properties: A, B and C
-
User 1 has Access to Properties A and C
-
User 1 runs a report with “All”- the report will contain data from properties A and C.
Entitlements
All users can access Saved Reports but will only be able to see the types of reports that they are entitled to see based on their assigned Role(s). Examples:
-
User 1 only has the “Reservation Reports” entitlement. When they access the above “Saved Reports” screen, they will only see the “Reservation History” report
-
User 2 has the “Account Balances Report” and “Net Sales Report” entitlement. When they access the above “Saved Reports” screen, they will only see the “Account Balance” and ”Daily Flash” reports
Note - The ‘Saved Reports’ created by a user can be accessed or deleted by any user that has access to that type of report. An update to this behavior will be coming soon.
Opening a Saved Report
A saved report includes a blue header and the saved report name, to distinguish it from regular reports.
Saved reports allows you to:
- Run the saved report
- Update the report inputs and run the report
- Save the report
- Save – replaces the existing saved report with any updated input selections
- Save As – Creates a new copy of the report with a unique name
Batch Reports
‘Batch Reports’ is a new feature that allows a set of ‘Saved Reports’ to be run together at once, rather than downloading each report individually.
A batch can also be configured to be emailed to a set of email addresses on a desired schedule. For example, you can create a “Management Reports” batch that includes the Daily Flash, Net Sales and Ledger Balances report and schedule it to be emailed to your management team, every day.
The Batch Reports section is right next to the ‘Saved Reports’ section in the ‘Reports Module’.
Adding a New Batch Report
To create a ‘Batch Report’, complete the following 3 steps
1) Click on the ‘+ Add New Batch’ button that is shown below.

Batch Emails
When a batch is run, an email is sent with a secure link to download your batch reports. This link is valid for 14 days.
Scheduled Batch Reports are generated at ~3 AM and are sent at ~7 AM of the local time zone.
Report Entitlements
Another new feature that we have implemented in this release is to include an individual entitlement for each report.
All the Roles in the current system with reports access will automatically be given the new Entitlements so that they can access these new reports immediately. Clients now will have an option to update the permissions to these Roles, as and if desired, from Admin Module > Roles Tab.
Along with the Report entitlements, there are certain Special Functions (Entitlements) too and one important entity to be noted is the ‘Run Report as Others’ entitlement.
- If this entitlement is checked, then Users will be able to filter come reports for changes made by a specific user. If this is unchecked (as in the example below) then users are limited to running the reports as the logged-in User only.
