DocBoss offers a number of customizable internal reporting options to track each of your projects over time and gauge metrics to help you and your colleagues manage your projects more effectively.

Let’s take a look at some of them in more detail.

Set the Parameters

Select the desired filters for Projects and Output settings (1), then Generate report (2).

Output settings definitions

Choose the Range = The total timeline over which you wish to execute your search.

• If you end on a date halfway through the month, the data will be cut off at that date.

Group by Period = The results will include an entry for every period over the range.

• Week is Monday to Sunday. These will display as numbers (# week of the year).
• Quarter is Jan 1 – March 31, etc.. Will display as 2015-01 to 2015-03.

Included Target = you can choose to limit the results for transactions focused to a specific target. e.g if you choose the customer, only customer transmittals will be included in the analysis.

• If you choose ALL, then the results will be grouped together, AND provided as a segment for each target.

Output Format – Summary:

This output is delivered in a table format. Rows are the parameters, columns are the periods/source.

Output Format – By Project

This output contains a separate row for each unique combination of project + period + source. You will have to construct the tables for each project as you wish – generally by building a pivot table (with the parameters as rows, and periods across the top.)
