How to see your profit by month and by departure
Economy → Reports shows what your business earns: each month in Monthly profit, and one departure in Tour cost effectiveness. Both count the costs you enter under Fixed costs.

Open it again later
Loaded months are listed with their income, cost and profit. To open one again, choose Load in its menu (⋮).
A month shows:
- Bookings in the month, with their payments;
- Tours, with each job's cost: change one there, or add one with Add cost;
- Lodgings: the hotel stays you sold, with what each one costs you;
- Additional income and Additional costs: lines of your own, added with Add;
- Totals, down to Profit, with Potential profit while payments are outstanding.
Each load works the month out again, so a refund or a changed cost shows. Load a month once it is over: one loaded earlier is marked. If you are paid in other currencies, a month keeps the exchange rates of its first load until you click Update exchange rates.
Tour cost effectiveness
See what one group tour or shore excursion departure earned: each group's income per passenger, its provider and fixed costs, and the profit.

Adjust a cost
To change a cost for one group only, use Edit fixed cost, or add a cost with Add specific cost.
Fixed costs
Economy → Reports → Fixed costs holds the costs the reports add by themselves.
- Monthly costs, such as rent or software: each month you load starts with them in its Additional costs.
- Tour specific costs, such as fuel or an entrance fee: click Add, pick the tour, then enter the Cost description and Amount. They count on each group and each private booking of that tour.
Click Save when you are done. A month already loaded keeps the costs it had: change them in the month itself.
