Building Custom Reports
Go to Reports → Builder to create custom reports:

- Select fields — pick which columns to include (drag and drop)
- Add filters — narrow the data (date range, client, queue, status, etc.)
- Group and aggregate — group by client, technician, or time period; aggregate counts, sums, or averages
- Choose visualization — table, bar chart, line chart, pie chart, or KPI card
- Save — give the report a name and save to your report library
Custom reports are available to the creator by default. Share reports with your team by publishing them.
