# Running a Report

> Open a report, choose its filters, and export the result to CSV, Excel, or PDF.

Every report in the [Reports hub](/en/reports/overview) works the same way:
open it, narrow it with filters, then export the result. This page walks
through that flow.

## Open and filter a report

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the report">
    From the [Reports hub](/en/reports/overview) at `/reports`, select the card
    for the report you want. It opens at `/reports/:reportKey`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the filters">
    Choose the filters the report offers — most reports include a **date
    range**, and some add further filters relevant to that report. The view
    updates to match your selection.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review the result">
    Read the report on screen to confirm it covers the period and scope you
    expect before exporting.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  The available filters depend on the report. A receivables-aging report and a
  VAT summary, for example, will not offer exactly the same options.
</Note>

## Export the result

When the report shows what you need, export it in the format that suits your
next step:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose a format">
    Pick the export format — Fatorly supports **CSV**, **Excel (xlsx)**, and
    **PDF**.

    * **CSV** — a plain comma-separated file, best for importing into another
      tool.
    * **Excel (xlsx)** — a spreadsheet you can open and work with directly.
    * **PDF** — a fixed-layout document, best for sharing or filing.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate the export">
    Confirm the export. Fatorly builds the file from the report as you have
    filtered it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Collect the file">
    The finished export is added to your
    [Downloads](/en/reports/downloads), where you can download it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Set your filters before exporting — the export reflects exactly the rows and
  period currently shown in the report.
