Reports: Analysis of Costs Received

This guide will go through the Analysis of Costs Received report

For this report to pull through values, you must have the Analyse Costs Received switch in Supervisor > System Settings > Configuration Settings set to True. When receiving bill costs, you will see an additional screen on allocating the payment to its bill, similar to the Apportion Costs billed screen.

This report shows an analysis of receipts allocated to bills. It uses the amounts you enter on the Apportion Costs Received screen above, so care should be taken to ensure the correct costs amounts are entered when entering bill receipts.
