Saving, Scheduling & Sharing Custom Reports

Overview

Efimis allows users to customise, save, share and schedule reports to improve efficiency, consistency and automation in financial, operational and compliance reporting.

This guide explains how to:

  • Save customised report views.
  • Share reports with other users.

Report Customisation

Before saving or scheduling a report, you can customise the report output to display only the information you need.

Common customisations include:

  • Date ranges
  • Accounts or Matters
  • Clients
  • Transaction types
  • Report-specific filters (varies by report)
Filter changes are applied immediately, allowing you to review the results before saving your custom report.

  3. Enter a Schedule Name.

If your firm uses Message Quarantine, scheduled report emails may not be delivered immediately. The quarantine period is configured under: Settings → Firm Settings → Message Quarantine Configuration


Managing Scheduled Reports

Scheduled reports can be managed from the Customised tab.

Depending on your permissions, you can:

  • Edit a schedule.
  • Change the delivery frequency.
  • Update recipients.
  • Modify the email subject or message.
  • Disable or delete a schedule.

Best Practices

  • Save reports that you run regularly.
  • Use meaningful names so reports are easy to identify.
  • Share commonly used reports to maintain consistency.
  • Schedule recurring reports instead of running them manually.
  • Review schedules periodically to ensure recipients remain current.
