Report Builder¶
The Report Builder lets you create, save, and organise custom reports alongside the system reports that Tally Up provides out of the box. Reports are accessible from the dashboard and update automatically as your data changes.
System reports¶
Tally Up includes a set of built-in reports that are always available:
| Report | What it shows |
|---|---|
| NAV | Net worth over the forecast period |
| Cash Flow | Projected income vs. expenses year by year |
| Assets | Forecast of asset values by type |
| Operational Cash | Available spending cash over time |
| Portfolio | Current investment holdings and composition |
| Portfolio Briefing | Summary of portfolio status and performance |
| Capital Gains | Disposal history and gains by tax year |
System reports cannot be edited or deleted.
Custom reports¶
You can create additional reports tailored to your specific interests. Available report types include:
| Type | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Net Worth | Asset values grouped by type or individual asset, over a date range you choose |
| Income & Expenses | Projected income and expense flows over a configurable period |
| Investment Summary | Holdings summary for investment assets |
| Transactions by Category | Historical transaction breakdown by category |
| Category Interval | Spending or income by category across monthly, quarterly, or yearly intervals |
| Asset Category Matrix | Cross-tabulation of assets and spending categories |
Creating a custom report¶
Tap Add in the Reports screen. Choose a report type, give it a name, and configure its parameters — which assets to include, the date range, grouping, and any category filters. The preview updates as you adjust settings.
Editing a custom report¶
Tap a custom report to open it. Use the edit option to change its name, parameters, or filters.
Favourites and the dashboard¶
Reports you use regularly can be marked as favourites. Favourite reports appear as tabs on your dashboard for quick access.
You can mark up to 12 reports as favourites. Reorder them to control the tab sequence.
Tips¶
- A "Transactions by Category" report for the past 12 months is a useful starting point for understanding your spending patterns before setting up a budget.
- The "Category Interval" report at monthly granularity shows seasonality — months where certain costs spike — which helps set more realistic budget targets.
- Mark the reports you check most often as favourites so they are one tap away from the dashboard.
