Learn how to view date ranges side-by-side in reports.
Some reports let you compare time periods side-by-side. This lets you easily see how things have changed over time. We'll show you how to run this comparison.
Compare time periods
- At the top of the report, select the menu under Compare another period.
Note: If you don't see Compare another period, then it isn’t an option for that report. - Select which time period to compare.
- Previous period: The period right before the report period.
Example: If the report period is February, the previous period is January. - Previous year: The same period the previous year.
- Year-to-date: From the start of the year to the start of the report period. Note: Not all reports have this option.
- Previous period: The period right before the report period.
- Select how you want to compare the difference.
- S$ change: The difference as amount.
- % change: The difference as a percentage.
- Select Run report. And, you'll be able to see your changes.
