Reports: profit and loss, category by month, year bundle

The Reports screen answers one question for one year: what came in, what went out and where. Choose the Year at the top. The screen offers this year and the six before it.

Every figure comes from your confirmed books, worked out by SoloBook’s server. The screen only shows them.

📈 Profit and loss

The Profit and loss card counts business rows only. Personal rows and transfers are left out.

• Income is grouped by category.
• Expenses are grouped by T2125 line, with the amount that is Deductible next to what you spent. Capital items show 0 here, because their deduction comes through CCA. See Reviewing transactions.
• Net (income minus spending) closes the card.

Spending that has no category, or whose category has no tax line, is shown on its own line (Uncategorised or Unmapped), so it cannot hide. See Categories.

Click an income row to open Transactions, already filtered to that category and that year. Expense rows are tax lines, not categories, so they do not open a list.

The card is a planning aid, not a tax figure and not advice. Which line a purchase belongs on is a question for your accountant.

🗓️ Category by month

The Category by month table puts every category in a row and the twelve months in columns, with Income and Expenses apart and a Total for each category.

• Click any number to open Transactions filtered to that category and that month.
• Download CSV saves the table as a spreadsheet file.
• A row called Uncategorised collects what has no category, so the totals add up.

💱 Rows without a Canadian-dollar amount

If a foreign-currency row has no Canadian-dollar amount yet, it is left out of the totals. Both cards say how many such rows there are. Add the currency in Settings → Currencies and SoloBook can fetch the rate. See Importing statements.

📦 Year bundle for your accountant

Year bundle for your accountant gives you one ZIP for the chosen year: a workbook of the year’s business income and expenses with totals per T2125 line, and the documents behind them. Personal payments and transfers are not included. Documents are the files you attached to transactions; see Receipts and invoices on transactions.

Press Download and wait for Preparing… to finish. The year cannot be changed while the bundle is being prepared.

🧭 What Reports is not

Reports shows the year’s numbers. It does not file anything with CRA. For the tax estimate and the line-by-line statement, see Tax year. A ready-made T2125 form is not part of Reports yet; see What SoloBook does not do.
