# Read Your Sales and Revenue Reports

> See what you collected and invoiced, who your biggest clients are, the tax you collected, and every invoice by status, and export any report

Commerce has a set of reports built from your invoices and payments. This guide reads Northwind's: the Sales overview, revenue by client, the tax summary and the invoice details.

## Open the reports

Click **Commerce** in the left rail. Under **Reports** in the menu are **Sales**, **Recurring revenue**, **Accounts aging**, **Revenue by client**, **Invoice details** and **Tax summary**, among others. Start with **Sales**.

## The Sales overview

**Sales** gives you this month at a glance: what you **collected** and how many payments, what you **invoiced**, recurring income, how many days clients take to pay on average, the share of sent invoices that are paid, and the share of subscribers who canceled in the last 90 days.

![Sales: Collected this month \$1,522.00, 3 payments, \$3,239.00 last month; Invoiced this month \$4,103.50, 6 invoices issued; Recurring collected \$0.00; Avg. days to pay 0 days; Collection rate 100%; Churn 0%](https://mintcdn.com/locusdigital/8zatGQ57zXeP8dih/images/how-tos/commerce/sr-01-sales-closeup.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8zatGQ57zXeP8dih\&q=85\&s=8e08dd86c6a0d74a6187ca08dfc1673d)

Below the cards, **Invoice volume** compares what you sent with what was paid, month by month.

![The Invoice volume chart from December 2025 to October 2026: grey bars for sent and green bars for paid, rising from July](https://mintcdn.com/locusdigital/8zatGQ57zXeP8dih/images/how-tos/commerce/sr-02-volume-closeup.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8zatGQ57zXeP8dih\&q=85\&s=eb5cd49cfae8cf1a40698916cfcca25b)

Further down, **Top clients** lists who paid you most in the last 12 months, with **Subscriptions by status** and **Unbilled usage** beside it.

## See revenue by client

Click **Revenue by client**. Pick the period at the top (Northwind used **Year to date**), then choose **Invoiced** for what you billed or **Collected** for what was paid.

![Revenue by client, Year to date, issued Jan 1 to Oct 21, 2026, with Invoiced and Collected outlined; Revenue \$7,461.00 from 8 invoices, Before tax \$7,461.00, Outstanding \$1,900.00 or 25.5% of revenue, Clients 4](https://mintcdn.com/locusdigital/8zatGQ57zXeP8dih/images/how-tos/commerce/sr-03-by-client-closeup.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8zatGQ57zXeP8dih\&q=85\&s=d158325a06ba2413c18fd5a6ae739449)

The bar shows each client's share, and the table adds what each one has paid and still owes. Click a column heading to sort by it.

![The Revenue by client bar and the By client table: Quillfeather Bakehouse 3 invoices \$2,846.00, Ninebark Hotel \$1,688.00, Pinecrest Design Collective \$1,485.00, Copperleaf Books and Coffee \$1,442.00, with Paid, Outstanding and Share columns and a Total of \$7,461.00; draft, void, uncollectible and refunded invoices are not counted](https://mintcdn.com/locusdigital/8zatGQ57zXeP8dih/images/how-tos/commerce/sr-04-clients-table-closeup.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8zatGQ57zXeP8dih\&q=85\&s=94dfa2ccd057de5e12b4e8a4b596d455)

Draft invoices aren't counted, so a draft doesn't make a client look bigger than they are.

## Check the tax you collected

Click **Tax summary**. **Cash** shows the tax on payments you received in the period, and **Accrual** shows the tax on invoices you issued in it, paid or not. Use the one your accountant asks for.

![Tax summary, Year to date, paid Jan 1 to Oct 21, 2026, with Cash and Accrual outlined; Tax collected \$0.00, Taxable sales collected \$0.00, Non-taxable collected \$5,561.00, Total sales collected \$5,561.00 from 9 payments](https://mintcdn.com/locusdigital/8zatGQ57zXeP8dih/images/how-tos/commerce/sr-05-tax-closeup.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8zatGQ57zXeP8dih\&q=85\&s=dde580306cda4df5d28b03c4e4a73038)

Northwind doesn't charge tax on these sales, so its tax is \$0.00. When you do, **By tax** lists each rate and **By month** gives a month-by-month list you can export.

## See every invoice by status

Click **Invoice details**. It shows every invoice issued in the period, grouped by status (draft, sent, paid, partly paid and others), then lists them one by one with what is still due.

![Invoices by status for this month: Draft 5 invoices \$3,405.50, Sent or viewed 0, Paid 1 invoice \$698.00, Partly paid 0, Other 0; then the Invoices list with issue date, number, client, status, balance, before tax and total](https://mintcdn.com/locusdigital/8zatGQ57zXeP8dih/images/how-tos/commerce/sr-06-invoice-details-closeup.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8zatGQ57zXeP8dih\&q=85\&s=2294ab967bab2c3ffd05bc21c0bda062)

## Export a report

Each report after **Sales** has **Options** at the top right, with **Export CSV** for a spreadsheet and **Print**.

## Good to know

* **Accounts aging** shows who owes you and how late. See [Find and Chase Overdue Invoices](/how-tos/commerce/chase-overdue-invoices).
* **Ask in plain words:** click **Ask accounting** on any report. See [Ask the Accounting Assistant About Your Money](/how-tos/commerce/ask-the-accounting-assistant).
* **Online payments:** the yellow note at the top of Commerce is a reminder that clients can't pay online until you connect a payment processor. It doesn't change the reports.
