The estimate table

Each row gives you the full story behind an estimate.

  2. Click Export.
  3. The data downloads as an Excel file.

Automate the report

Set it up once and the report arrives in your inbox on schedule.

  1. Click the Configure Report Automation icon.

  2. In the popup, choose recipients from Send To.

  3. Pick a frequency from Generate Report:

    • Daily (default): sent within an hour of your chosen time. If you set 6:00 PM, it arrives between 6:00 and 6:59 PM.
    • Weekly: covers the week and is sent at the same day and time the following week.
    • Monthly: covers the month and is sent on the same day and time next month.
  4. Set the Start Date and Start Time. The start time is required, so reports won't go out without it.

  5. Click Save to activate, or Cancel to discard.

Pro tip: Keep the schedule consistent so everyone knows when to expect the numbers.


In short: The Estimate Report helps you track costs, monitor client responses and understand profit at a glance, with filters, bulk export and automation built in.
