Financial Reports Overview
This guide covers the reports available in Fiskl and what each one is designed to show. Reports update automatically as you record transactions, so the data you see always reflects your current books.
Core Financial Reports
These reports form the foundation of your financial statements. Use them for business reviews, tax preparation, and sharing with accountants or investors.
Profit and Loss
The Profit and Loss report shows your revenue, cost of sales, and expenses over a chosen period. It calculates gross profit and net profit so you can see whether the business is making money and where costs are concentrated.

Balance Sheet
The Balance Sheet gives a snapshot of your financial position at a specific date. It lists your assets, liabilities, and equity, and verifies that the accounting equation balances: Assets = Liabilities + Equity.

Statement of Cash Flows
The Statement of Cash Flows tracks actual cash movement across three categories: operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. It shows your opening and closing cash balances for the period.

General Ledger
The General Ledger lists every transaction in your books, grouped by ledger account. You can view amounts in the original transaction currency, the ledger account currency, or your base currency. Select any transaction to open the source document.

Trial Balance
The Trial Balance summarises all ledger account balances and confirms that total debits equal total credits. Use it to catch posting errors before generating financial statements or closing a period.

Operational Reports
These reports help you monitor day-to-day activity — outstanding invoices, client account histories, and transaction detail by account.
Client Aging Report
The Client Aging Report groups outstanding invoices by how long they have been overdue: Current, 1–30 days, 31–60 days, 61–90 days, and 90+ days. Use it to prioritise collections and forecast incoming cash.

Statement of Accounts
The Statement of Accounts generates a transaction history for a specific client, showing invoices, payments, and the current balance owed. You can send it directly to the client from within the report.

Date ranges — Select preset periods (This Month, Last Quarter, This Year, and others) or enter a custom date range.
Comparison periods — The Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet reports support period comparisons, so you can view variances year-over-year or month-over-month alongside the current figures.
Multi-currency — View amounts in the original transaction currency, the ledger account currency, or your base currency. Exchange rates are displayed alongside converted amounts.
Export — Download any report as a Google Sheets or Excel file. The Statement of Accounts can also be printed or exported as a PDF, formatted for sharing with your client.
