Filtering and View Options
Each report in Quicken Simplifi (except Monthly Summary) includes breakdown and/or filtering options to help you focus on the data that matters most. Some reports also offer multiple view options for different ways of analyzing your finances.
Report Breakdown & Views
For example, the Spending and Income reports can be broken down by category, account, tag, or payee, and include both Summary and Transaction views so you can switch between high-level insights and detailed data. The Income & Expense report offers additional display options, such as time period and account views, for more flexible analysis. The Net Worth report includes interval options that let you view changes in your net worth in the way that’s most meaningful to you.
Display Customization Options
Most reports also include display customization options to improve readability. These may include the ability to show expenses as negative values or hide cents.
Date Range & Filters
You can adjust the date range for any report by using the date range filter at the top of the page. Additional filters can be applied by selecting the Filters button at the top of each report to refine results by criteria such as account, category, tag, or payee.
Graph View Options
Some reports include graph view options, such as switching between pie and bar charts.
Persistent Customizations
Any customizations you make to views or filters are automatically saved for each report. These settings persist across sessions and platforms, so your customized view will remain in place the next time you open the report, whether on web or mobile. If you want to revert to the original setup, you can select Reset at the top of the report to restore the default view.
Note: Not all reports offer the same breakdown, view, date range, or filter options. If a specific option isn’t available, it’s because that report doesn’t support it. The Monthly Summary report does not include any customization or filtering options.
Viewing Transactions in Reports
To view the transactions included in a report on the Quicken Simplifi Mobile App, tap a payee, category, or similar item within the report to open the underlying transactions. From there, you can tap an individual transaction to view or edit its details.
Note: Reports currently don't support transactions from liability accounts.
Saving Reports
You can save reports in Quicken Simplifi to quickly access them later with your preferred settings and filters.
Saving a Report
To save a report, click the Save button in the upper-right corner of the report. Once saved, the report will appear in the Saved tab on the Reports dashboard. From there, you can open and modify any saved report at any time.
Updating or Undoing Changes
If you make changes to a saved report, you’ll have the option to either update the existing report or save it as a new report. You can also use Undo changes at the top of the report to revert to the last saved version.
Recently Accessed Reports
In addition to saved reports, you can easily revisit recently accessed reports from the Recent tab on the Reports dashboard. Saved reports are identified by a bookmark icon next to the report name, and reports with unsaved changes display an orange dot indicator. To close a report tab, hover over the tab and click the X.
Printing and Exporting Reports
Printing and exporting reports, including the transaction activity within reports, is only available in the Quicken Simplifi Web App. For more information, see: Using Reports on the Quicken Simplifi Web App.
