What reports and exports are available in Harvest? 🎦
Harvest offers several in-app reports as well as exports that display data not shown within the app's reports.
Note that not all report types and export functionality are available to all Harvest plans. For more information about each report type, click on the related link to view the Help Center article for that report.Â
Harvest's in-app reports can help you find the data you need for your team’s time, expenses, invoices, and invoice payments. These reports, along with data from other sections of Harvest, can be exported to help your team analyze your data.
