Are you looking to streamline your financial processes and have a better grasp of your revenue streams and account activities? Paddle offers a robust reporting system that allows you to export critical data straight to your favorite spreadsheet app, aiding in a comprehensive analysis of trends and facilitating seamless integration with accounting or ERP solutions. In this guide, we’ll uncover two types of reports available in Paddle Billing: Transactions and Adjustments.

Transactions Report

This report encompasses data related to both checkouts and invoices. The main elements captured here include the details about the billed amounts and related revenue details. It's your go-to resource to retrieve vital information about revenue received, past-due invoices, draft and issued invoices, and canceled transactions. Utilising the Transactions report will provide you with an accurate snapshot of your financial standing at any given time.

Adjustments Report

Adjustments, on the other hand, document any changes made to a transaction. These are automatically recorded by Paddle whenever there are prorated alterations to a subscription or modifications to an issued invoice. This report will keep you informed about refunds, credits, and chargebacks, offering a detailed view of all the fluctuations affecting your account's balance.

Transaction Line Items Report

The Transaction Line Items report in Paddle Billing provides a downloadable breakdown of transactions at the line item level. The fields included enable detailed analysis of each item within a transaction, supporting granular revenue and reconciliation tasks⁠.

Adjustment Line Items Report

The Adjustment Line Items report offers a line-item level view of all adjustments, such as refunds or credits. This report is designed to provide all the contextual and financial details needed to understand how adjustments impact your account without requiring cross-referencing multiple reports⁠.

Products and Prices Report

The Products and Prices report catalogs all products and prices within your Paddle Billing account. It provides a reference for your entire product catalog, including standard and custom products, as well as active and archived prices.

Use this report to maintain an up-to-date record of your product catalog, audit pricing changes, or synchronize product and pricing data with your internal systems. It’s essential for catalog management, price optimization, and for ensuring consistency between your Paddle setup and other business tools⁠.

Discounts Report

The Discounts report provides a comprehensive overview of all discounts configured in your Paddle Billing environment. This includes both active and archived discounts, with details on their type, value, and usage.

This report helps you track the effectiveness and usage of your discount programs, manage eligibility, and ensure compliance with your promotional policies. It’s also useful for analyzing the impact of discounts on revenue and customer acquisition⁠.

Payout Reconciliation Report

The Payout Reconciliation Report is designed to bridge the gap between your Paddle payouts and the underlying transactions, adjustments, and fees that make up each payout. This report delivers full transparency, enabling you to reconcile your books and understand every component of your payout.

Note: Some payout-level items, such as bank SWIFT fees or manual rebates, may be deducted outside of transactions and won’t appear in the report. This can lead to small differences between the report and your final bank payout, which is expected and not a data error. Always regenerate the report after new adjustments or payouts to ensure you’re working with the latest data.
