The Detailed Activity Report is a report on your business activities based on a specific location and/or time, as well as date paid. You can also narrow the data further by employees, pay schedule, or earnings location. You can download the report via CSV, Excel, or PDF, and view the breakdown for each location your business currently operates in.
