Exporting Reports

There are two different ways of downloading reports from Time IQ:

Summary Report

A human-readable summary of the current report. This option is better for viewing and distributing reports that can be viewed by everyone.

Time Entry Data

Contains a list of time entries where each line has details about the time entry (date, person, client, project, duration, etc). This option is better for importing into other programs or if you would like to view detailed time information that can be viewed in Excel or other programs that can view CSV files.
