Pre-Configured Reports

Legal Tracker provides a set of standard reports to help you analyze your data. Some reports can be customized; others are pre-configured only.

Updateable reports

Some pre-configured reports in Legal Tracker can be customized and saved as a report in your reports list, while others cannot. Updateable reports are created in the Report Builder and provide complete flexibility. You can add more fields to see more information, or remove any of the fields to see less information. You can also change the layout of the report, and as with any report, you can view the results on the screen or export them to another format (Excel, CSV, XML, or PDF).
Updateable Report Details
  • Invoices Report (Core Data Warehouse): Shows invoice information, including date ranges and invoice statuses (approved, pending and rejected) using structured data from the Thomson Reuters-managed customer data warehouse.
  • Spending Total: The Total Spending report is similar to the Invoices Report but the Invoices Report lets you retrieve and display invoice information. The Total Spending report always provides totals but does not allow you to obtain the individual invoice information. The totals in the two reports may not be the same. The Total Spending report shows you the total of approved invoices plus the total amount of unapproved invoices. The Invoices Report shows you the total amount approved for a set of invoices. If an invoice is not approved, the billed amount is not included in the total. The Invoices Report also shows the total billed for a set of invoices whether the invoice is approved or unapproved. Thus, the totals in the two reports are different numbers.
