Many of the buy module reports print details for a range of items. This allows you to limit the amount of information listed. You should be careful when selecting the ranges for reports, as a report with a large range could be lengthy. Note that to start from the beginning of a range the word FIRST should be entered as the ‘from’ value. To go to the end of a range enter the word LAST as the ‘to’ value.

 

Many reports convert order values into the base currency of your system. This conversion is done using current exchange rates.
