How to Access Reports
To get to the Reports section, hover over the panel on the left-hand side and select Reports:
Using Filters
In your Reports, you'll have the ability to select what kind of historical information you want to review, as well as how you'd like it sorted, and using the different Filter options can help simplify your view.
With the Breakdown filter, you can select if you'd like your Report to be broken down by Payee, Category, Tag, or by nothing at all. With the Date Range option, you can select the date range by which you'd like to view your data. And with the available Filter options, you can refine your data even further.
Filtering Your Spending by Category Report to View Subcategories
You can also Filter the Spending by Category Report to easily view your Subcategories! To do so, you'll want to navigate to the Spending by Category Report, make sure that the Breakdown is 'By Category', and then select Filters.
Next, from the Categories tab in the Filters window, you can expand the primary Category options by clicking the little arrow to the left of the Category, which will then allow you to select the Subcategories that you'd like to view in your Report. Once done, click Apply, and voila!
Note: If you selected multiple Subcategories to filter your Report by, you can click on the primary Category from the graph to see the breakdown of each individual Subcategory.
