Dashboard Explained

Comprehensive single-project report: headline gauges (including Earned Value Management), revenue/cost trends, a full stage-level financial table, and supporting Transactions, Invoices, and Timesheet Hours detail. Project Report is the most detailed single-project view in Insights Pro — it brings financial, schedule, and time data for one project onto a single page.

Note: This report is for a single project only. Until a project is selected via the Project filter, the page will be empty.

How to use it

Open Project Report for the single most complete financial and schedule picture of a project — use it in place of switching between Project Summary, Project Budget Detail, and Timesheet Detail when you need everything in one place. CPI and SPI give an Earned Value read on cost and schedule performance that isn't available elsewhere — a CPI or SPI below 1.0 signals the project is running over budget or behind schedule respectively, even if simple Recovery % or invoicing progress still looks fine. Use Slice By to change how the financial table is grouped, and use the Transactions, Invoices, and Timesheet Hours tables to trace a headline figure back to the individual entries behind it.

Understanding your data

Key Fields

How it's Calculated

Net Invoiced as % of Fee

Net invoiced revenue ÷ agreed fee/cap, period-to-date (PTD), for the selected project, shown against a target

Recovery %

Invoiced revenue ÷ charge generated, PTD, for the selected project, shown against the Net Invoiced as % of Fee target

Gross Profit %

Revenue less standard cost as a % of revenue, PTD, for the selected project, shown against your organisation's configured Target Gross Profit %

Total Charge vs Budget

Charge as a percentage of Budget, PTD, for the selected project

CPI (Cost Performance Index)

Earned Value Management measure — planned cost of work performed ÷ actual cost, for the selected project, shown against a target. Above 1.0 means the project is running under budget for the work completed

SPI (Schedule Performance Index)

Earned Value Management measure — planned cost of work performed ÷ planned cost of work scheduled, for the selected project, shown against a target. Above 1.0 means the project is ahead of schedule

Financial table

Agreed Fee/Cap, Fee/Cap, Budget Less Charge, Budget vs Charge % (PTD), Charge (PTD), Standard Cost (PTD), Gross Profit / GP % (PTD), Invoiced Charge (PTD), Net Invoiced (PTD, and as % of Agreed Fee/Cap), Recovery % (PTD), Residual (PTD), Revenue (PTD), WIP (PTD) — one row per stage, grouped by the selected Slice By dimension

Transactions table

Transaction Type, Revenue Total Ex Tax, Target Charge Total, Units, Value Total — both as totals and by Transaction Date

Invoices table

Contact Name, Invoice Date, Invoice Due Date, Invoice Number, Invoice Amount Ex/Inc Tax, Debtors Inc Tax (and Overdue)

Timesheet Hours table

Staff Name, Timesheet Hours by Week (1–4) and PTD, alongside Chargeable Charge (PTD)
