Project summaries, overview of costs and profits

Project Summaries in Freelo show you which activities have high costs, where profits are generated, and how efficiently your team completes tasks – all clearly displayed in charts and tables. Find them in the main menu under Reports → Reports → Summaries, where you can filter results by user, project, label, or time period. In this article you will find a description of the chart view, filtering options, and table view.

Go to section Reports and Summaries.
