Reports

The agent keeps the books as you go, and you approved every voucher along the way. The reports are where you see what it added up to. You don't need them to run the business — the numbers come to you in the chat — but when you want to check the cards yourself, or your accountant does, it's all here.

The reports are built with your accountant in mind, but you're welcome to look. You don't have to know the chart of accounts to get something out of them, and nothing here changes anything — the reports only show.

The report tabs are labelled in Norwegian, since that's the language of Norwegian accounting; the glosses below tell you what each one is.

How to open them

The reports belong to accounting, so they appear once you've turned on accounting in Tredco. Ask the assistant to show you something — "show me the result", "how does the balance look?", "show the VAT return" — and Rapporter (Reports) opens beside the chat.

On a wide screen the reports sit in a list on the left, and you switch between them there. When the pane is narrow — on the phone, or when accounting shares the space with something else — that list collapses into a menu at the top instead; tap the name of the report you're on to switch. Either way, Rapporter opens on Dagbok (Diary).

Choose the period

At the top sits one period that every report shares. Change it in Resultat (Result) and it still applies when you move on to Balanse (Balance) or Hovedbok (General ledger) — you don't have to set it again for each report.

The period shows as a year you can see: a row of the six VAT terms over their months, and the whole year. The caption above names the period you're on — on a full year it reads All of 2026. The arrows step back and forth, and when you need a tailored period you open Dates and type a From date and To date (dd.mm.yyyy). To see the year so far, tap Year to date.

Each report remembers its own filters — Hovedbok remembers which accounts you looked at, Resultat and Balanse whether you had comparison on. Open a client you've looked at before and Tredco brings back your last choices and says so plainly: "Showing your last choices for this client." When you want more to adjust — accounts in the general ledger, say — tap Filters; it unfolds the advanced choices without moving the period. Whatever you've narrowed to stays as small chips you can remove one by one, beside Reset.

See how the business is doing

If you just want to know how things stand, these three are enough:

• Resultat (Result) is the income statement: revenue minus costs, down to the operating result and the year's result. Turn on comparison to see this period against the last.
• Balanse (Balance) shows assets, equity and liabilities as of a date. At the top it tells you whether Balansen stemmer — the balance sheet balances.
• Prosjektresultat (Project result) takes it down to each job: revenue, costs, margin and how much you have left to invoice.

If all you want is the short read — your bank balance, what's on its way in, whether anything is waiting on you — you don't need the reports at all. That lives with the assistant and on the accounting home screen; see How the business is doing.

A closer look — trace every voucher

When you need to follow a single figure all the way down. The reports open on this one:

• Dagbok (Diary) is "everything that happened" in the accounts, in date order — sales, payments, bank imports, payroll. This is the accounting diary, not the project logbook.
• Bilag (Vouchers) is the journal: each voucher line by line, with debit and credit.
• Hovedbok (General ledger) shows the movements account by account, with a running balance.
• Saldo (Trial balance) is every account with its debit and credit totals, side by side.

Tap the figure, and the account opens

In Saldo (Trial balance), Balanse (Balance) or Resultat (Result), when you wonder what a figure is made of, tap it. Tredco opens Hovedbok (General ledger) for exactly that account, over the period the report shows — never a moment wider. At the top it sets the figure you came from beside its own sum and tells you whether the two agree: "Agrees with the general ledger" or "Differs from the general ledger". When the figure is a sum of several accounts, you get a small table — "How … is made" — with each account and how much it counts, under Part in Income statement and Part in the general ledger side by side.

Sometimes the figure you opened was for a different period than the one you're on now. Tredco says so and lets you choose: Use that period or Keep my period.

From a posting to the voucher

Every posting — in Hovedbok, Bilag, Dagbok or on a VAT line — opens the voucher behind it. The voucher is the diary's card as a page of its own: the posting lines with account, debit and credit, the source documents under Source documents (tap Open to see the original), and Records behind the voucher when the voucher comes from an invoice, a supplier invoice or a bank transaction. Each account on the voucher links straight into the general ledger, and to see the whole voucher as it stands you tap Open the voucher.

If something is posted wrong, you can void the voucher at the foot with Void voucher. Tredco asks whether you're sure and asks for a reason: "The voucher stays in the books as voided, with the reason you give." A voided voucher doesn't disappear — it stays marked Voided and shows which voucher, if any, replaced it.

The whole trip lives in the report pane's address: tap your way inward and you come back with Back to Income statement or Escape, and if you reload the page — or share the link — it opens on the same spot.

Bank and VAT

Two of the reports tie closely to work you already do elsewhere in Tredco:

• Bank is the bank reconciliation — how many bank movements are matched to vouchers, and what's left. The full picture of how the bank is linked is in Invoicing and accounting.
• MVA (VAT) is the VAT return for the term. You file it in Filing the VAT return.

Export to your accountant

If an accountant or auditor is taking over, you'll find Eksporter (Export) at the bottom of the list, under a thin line. Tap it and choose SAF-T (XML). Tredco builds a Norwegian SAF-T file (Financial 1.30) with the whole period's accounts, and checks it before you download. It's the standard format every Norwegian accounting system reads.

The reports show what the agent has already posted. To see how a voucher is made before it lands here, read Approving the bookkeeping. If you'd rather have the short read on how the business is doing, see How the business is doing.
