The Billing Analysis report provides information on billing decisions related to time and expenses for the specified period. The report helps you analyze the realization percentage of your firm’s billing rates, margin, and which clients, staff, or services are most profitable. The report lets you determine whether your firm was able to bill for your staff’s assigned rates, and the difference between what you are billing and the cost to the firm.
