Reading the Dashboard

What Funds Taken and Funds Realised mean, and how to change the date range.

Dashboard

1. 1

   Pick a period

   Use the Today, Current week and Current month buttons at the top. The date line underneath always shows the exact range being counted, e.g. 'Thursday, 20 August 2026 - Thursday, 20 August 2026'.

2. 2

   Choose a custom range

   Click the date range itself to open the picker and select any start and end date — useful for comparing a half term with the same week last year.

3. 3

   Funds Taken

   Money actually received in the period — card, cash and terminal payments taken between those dates, whatever they were for.

4. 4

   Funds Realised

   Money earned in the period — the value of sessions, parties and EPOS orders that took place between those dates, even if a deposit was paid weeks earlier.

5. 5

   When the two differ

   A big gap normally means deposits. Party deposits show as Taken on the day they are paid and as Realised on the party date. This is expected, not an error.
