Introduction to reports

Last updated: 21 Dec 2021

In the "Reporting" page, you can view live charts to see how your business is doing in the current year, and compare against previous years performances.

Reports are generated from the Income and Expenses data you've entered; they won't appear until you have at least 1 months' worth of entries.


Total tax liability

Shows your current tax and NI liabilities - you can select previous years from the dropdown menu beside it.


Income totals per month (accumulating)

Click on any month along the line to see your total earnings to the end of that month.

Income sources per month

If you have additional income sources, these are shown in this chart beside your own.
Example: Income from renting out a vehicle or from a regular conract or another self-employed source.

You can select charts from a previous year from the dropdown menu above the chart.

The chart below depicts a single income source.
