Purpose: Provides a review of professional fees (Time and Fees) recorded and attributed to the selected staff in their capacity as the Person Responsible or Person Acting, featuring:

Weekly Insights:

Offers a daily breakdown of the amounts of billable and non-billable professional fees under each selected staff member during a specified week.
Delivers direct insights into individual staff members’ contributions to revenue generation in their capacity as the Person Responsible or Person Acting.

Cumulative Data Analysis:

Presents Month-To-Date (MTD) and Financial Year-To-Date (FYTD) totals, including both billable and non-billable professional fee value recorded up to the end of the chosen week.
Allows a comprehensive or targeted perspective on staff revenue generation over extended periods.

Trigger Criteria:

Date Alignment: The report includes entries based on their transaction date. An entry is accounted for only if its transaction falls within the specified reporting periods: weekly, MTD or FYTD.
Staff Attribution: A Time/Fee entry is attributed to a staff member when the staff member is designated as the Person Responsible or Person Acting on the matter where the entry is recorded.

To ensure the report features a calendar week (from Monday to Sunday), please select a Monday as the Start Date.

NOTE: The report runs for the week starting on the selected date, regardless of whether the Start Date falls on a Monday. For example, if the Start Date falls on a Tuesday, the report will cover the week from that Tuesday to the following Monday.

Report Filters:

Start Date (Week Starting Monday)

The report uses the ‘Start Date’ to determine the scope of data captured:

Weekly Data: The report captures professional fees recorded exclusively within the week that commences on the chosen ‘Start Date’.
MTD Data: The report captures professional fees recorded from the beginning of the month—in which the ‘Start Date’ occurs—up to the end of the selected week (the relevant MTD).
FYTD Data: The report captures professional fees recorded from the start of the financial year—where the ‘Start Date’ falls—up to the end of the selected week (the relevant FYTD).

For instance, setting the ‘Start Date’ to 05/02/2024 (Monday) means the week concludes on 11/02/2024. Consequently, the MTD data will reflect professional fees recorded from 01/02/2024 to 11/02/2024.

Note: The firm's Financial Year Start Date is set under the Settings > Application Settings > Accounting > General.
