About custom reports

What custom reports are

Custom reports allow you to save the changes you make to a Reckon One report, so you can easily access reports that are tailored to suit your needs. To create a custom report, open any Reckon One report (or previously created custom report), adjust the filters, data and display options to suit your needs, then save it as a custom report with its own name.

Who can view custom reports

Only the person who creates the custom report can see it, unless that person chooses to share it with the book.

Custom report groups

When you create a custom report, you can choose to have it display in an existing report group or create a new custom group for it. Only you can see the custom report groups that you create.

Create a custom report

To create a custom report in Reckon One:

1. In the Reporting menu, select Reports.
2. Click on the report you wish to change and save as a custom report.
3. Change the reporting and comparison periods, filters, data and display options as desired. If you select a reporting or comparison period that doesn't contain specific dates (e.g. This financial year), the time period will update based on when the report is opened (for example, if you create a custom report in the 2024-25 financial year and open it in the 2025-26 financial year, the data will show for the 2025-26 financial year). If you select a reporting or comparison period with exact dates, those dates will apply regardless of when the report is accessed.
