# Personal Reports

The two reports on the Personal Reports card: My Time Cards, one row per labour line with a Day Total, and My Expenses, one row per expense with a Total.

## Key Concepts

The **Personal Reports** card on the dashboard holds the reports about your own work: **My Time Cards**, which
lists the hours entered against your name, and **My Expenses**, which lists the expenses you filed. Both are
read-only, so nothing you do on these screens changes a record. Every role has the card.

To open one, on the dashboard, in the **Personal Reports** card, click **My Time Cards** or **My Expenses**.

*Both reports are about your own records only, and neither changes anything.*

The two screens share the same controls:

- **From:** and **To:** set the date range. Both reports open with a range already filled in and an empty grid;
  click **Load Data** to fill it.
- The range they open on is short, the two weeks ending today. Widen **From:** before you click **Load Data** if
  you want older work.
- **Export to Excel** downloads what is in the grid.
- Every column header carries a funnel filter icon, and the grid opens sorted by **Date**. The funnel opens the
  same Filter panel, with the same operators, that the [Report Grids](https://getjobbook.com/help/Report_Grids#filtering) reach through
  their column menu. Neither report has a column menu or a template toolbar, so there is no Columns checklist and
  no layout to save.

## My Time Cards

My Time Cards shows the labour hours recorded against you.

There is one row for every labour line on a Daily Work Record, so a day worked on two jobs is two rows. The
columns are **Date**, **Job #**, **DWR #**, **Project**, **Line Item**, **Hours** and **Status**.

Rows are grouped by day, and that grouping is fixed: there is no grouping bar. Each day carries a **Date:** group
header you can collapse, and a **Day Total** of that day's hours; a **Total** of every hour in the range sits at
the foot of the grid. The **DWR #** cell is a link rather than plain text.

**Status** is the status of the Daily Work Record the line came from, so a row reading **PM Approved** is time the job's project manager has already approved.

*Your own hours, straight from your DWRs. Check the Day Total against what you worked, and Status for whether the day has been approved yet.*

To see how the hours get here in the first place, see [DWR Entry](https://getjobbook.com/help/DWR_Entry).

## My Expenses

My Expenses shows the expenses you filed and where each one has got to.

There is one row per expense, with the columns **Date**, **Submitted**, **Job #**, **Client**, **Expense**,
**Amount**, **Status** and **Description**. A **Total: $** of the **Amount** column sits at the foot of the grid,
so you can read what you spent in a period without exporting anything. The **Date** cell is a link rather than
plain text.

**Status** is the fastest way to check a reimbursement. **Submitted** means you
have sent the expense in and it is waiting to be approved.

Above the column headers this report carries a grouping bar reading "Drag a column header and drop it here to
group by that column". Dropping the **Client** header there, for example, groups the rows by client, and clicking a
second column header adds a sort inside the first. [Grouping](https://getjobbook.com/help/Report_Grids#grouping) on Report Grids
describes the bar in full.
