Reports Overview

Cortado’s Reporting section gives you a clear picture of how your business is performing — from close rates and revenue to sales tax totals and daily team activity. Reporting is organized into three pages under the Reporting section in the sidebar.

Overview

Close rate, leads count, and daily activity

Revenue

Revenue Intelligence Dashboard with KPIs, trends, and funnels

Sales Tax

Tax collected, broken down by rate

Overview

The Overview page (Reports) is your at-a-glance performance snapshot. It contains two key cards and a daily activity summary.

Close Rate Card

Shows the percentage of leads that converted to bookings in the selected period.
  • The large number is your close rate percentage
  • Beneath it, you see how many leads converted out of the total
  • A change indicator shows how the current period compares to a previous period

Leads Count Card

Shows the total number of inquiries received in the selected period, with a breakdown by stage (New, In Progress, Quote Sent, Accepted, Rejected, Stale).
  • Each stage is displayed with a count and a proportional bar
  • The change indicator compares the period total to your chosen comparison period

Date Range Filtering

Both the Close Rate and Leads Count cards support flexible date ranges. Use the selector in the top-right of each card to choose:
  • Preset periods — Today, This Week, This Month, This Quarter, This Year, and more
  • Custom — pick your own start and end dates

Comparison Periods

Click the “vs” label on either card to open the comparison settings. You can compare the current period against:
  • Previous Period — the immediately preceding period of the same length
  • Last Month
  • Same Period Last Year
  • Custom — any date range you choose
Comparison indicators make it easy to spot trends. A green up arrow means improvement versus the comparison period; a red down arrow means a decline.

Daily Activity Summary

Below the two cards, the Daily Activity Summary shows the notes created and tasks completed on a specific day, across your organization.
  • Defaults to yesterday so you can review what happened the day before
  • Use the date picker to look at any past day
  • See counts for notes created and tasks completed at the top
  • Each note and task shows the linked item (inquiry, event, booking, contact, invoice, or quote) so you can jump straight to the relevant record
The activity summary helps managers stay on top of what their team accomplished and where attention went each day.

Revenue

The Revenue page (Revenue) is Cortado’s Revenue Intelligence Dashboard. It combines multiple lenses on your financial performance into a single view.

Period Selector

At the top of the page, switch between preset periods (This Month, This Quarter, This Year, etc.) to refresh every metric on the page simultaneously.

Revenue KPIs

Five key metrics are displayed at the top:
  • Collected — revenue from paid invoices in the period
  • Outstanding — revenue awaiting payment
  • Total Pipeline — the combined value of all invoices in the period, with a count
  • Avg Invoice — average invoice value
  • Close Rate — percentage of leads that converted, with the converted-to-total count

Revenue Trend

A month-by-month bar chart shows Collected versus Invoiced revenue across the period. Hover any bar to see exact amounts for that month.

Revenue by Event Type

A ranked breakdown of revenue by event type. Each event type shows:
  • Total revenue for the period
  • The number of events
  • A proportional bar showing how much of total revenue came from that type
This view is great for spotting which event categories are driving the most revenue — useful for marketing and pricing decisions.

Lead Conversion Funnel

A visual funnel showing how leads progressed through your pipeline stages in the selected period. The close rate is highlighted at the top, followed by counts and proportional bars for New, In Progress, Quote Sent, Accepted, Declined, and Cancelled stages.

Period Summary

A companion card summarizes the period with key totals: total leads, leads converted, invoices created, revenue collected, revenue outstanding, and a calculated collection rate when invoices exist.

Sales Tax

The Sales Tax page (Sales Tax) makes reconciling collected tax straightforward for any period.

Date Range

Choose from pre-made date ranges — This Month, Last Month, This Quarter, Last Quarter, This Year, Last Year — or pick a Custom range with start and end date pickers.

Tax Summary

At the top, three cards summarize the period:
  • Total Taxable Sales — the sum of sales subject to tax
  • Total Tax Collected — the sum of tax collected across all invoices
  • Invoices in Period — the count of invoices included

Breakdown by Rate

A detailed table groups totals by tax rate, so you can see exactly how much was collected at each rate. Each row shows:
  • Tax rate name
  • The rate percentage
  • Taxable sales at that rate
  • Tax collected at that rate
  • The number of invoices that applied this rate
A total row at the bottom adds everything up for the period.
If the period has no taxable invoices, you’ll see a “No taxable invoices found for this period” message instead of a table.

Best Practices

  1. Start with Overview — check close rate and leads count each morning to see how the business is trending
  2. Use comparisons — always pair a metric with a comparison period; a number in isolation doesn’t tell you much
  3. Review the daily activity summary regularly — it’s a fast way to see what your team accomplished yesterday and which records had attention
  4. Check Revenue weekly — the monthly trend chart is most useful when you review it consistently, not just at quarter-end
  5. Export tax totals before filing — use the Sales Tax report to reconcile against your accounting system at the end of each reporting period
  6. Drill into event types — if one event type is underperforming on revenue, that’s a signal to revisit pricing or marketing for that category
