Total non-taxable amount calculated from exempted sales.
Explanation of metric
This metric presents the total non-taxable amount derived from sales that are exempt from taxes. The chart visualizes this total non-taxable amount for a specific period.
How it's measured
Tax Exemption Summary = Total Non-taxable amount in a particular period.
Reading
An upward trend indicates an increase in exempt sales, while a downward trend suggests a decrease.
Interpretation
The Tax Exemption Summary helps in accurate tax reporting and compliance by detailing the portion of sales not subject to tax. Understanding this metric is crucial for assessing how tax exemptions impact overall tax liability, revenue analysis, and financial planning. A significant amount of non-taxable sales can affect the business's tax obligations.
Example

Total value of invoices generated during the specific period.
Explanation of metric
This metric tracks the total value of all invoices issued during a specific period, represented by a trend line chart. It includes both recurring and non-recurring invoices but excludes taxes. A point-in-time KPI is also available, indicating the total value of invoices for the current period and comparing it with previous periods to show variance and percentage change.
How it's measured
Total Billing = Total value of Invoices generated during the period
Reading
An upward trend indicates growth in committed revenue.
Interpretation
Total Billing serves as a key indicator of your net revenue. If Total Billing is significantly higher than Net Billing, it may suggest revenue leakage due to factors like coupons and credit notes, which could impact cash flow. Monitoring this metric helps gauge overall business performance and revenue health.
Example
In a given period:
Total value of invoices segmented by the country.
Explanation of metric

Interpretation
Total Billing segmented by country helps assess the business's performance in each region. If Total Billing is higher than Net Billing, it may indicate revenue leakage due to factors like coupons or credit notes, which could impact cash flow. Increasing total Billing for a particular country signifies improved business performance in that region.
Example
In a given period:
The total invoiced amount is segmented by non-recurring add-on charges.
Explanation of metric
This metric shows the revenue generated from non-recurring addons during a specific period. A table displays the invoiced amounts for each non-recurring addon, providing insight into the performance of these addons.

Reading
An upward trend indicates growth in committed revenue.
Interpretation
Total Billing by Plan provides insights into which plans generate the most revenue. If Total Billing exceeds Net Billing, this may indicate higher revenue leakage due to coupons and credit notes, which could impact cash flow. This metric helps identify high-performing plans and informs strategies to enhance the value proposition of lower-revenue plans.
Example
In a given period:
Total invoiced amount segmented by Recurring Addon.
Explanation of metric
This metric summarizes total revenue generated from recurring addons during a specific period. A table displays the revenue contribution of each recurring addon, offering a clear view of how much each addon contributes to the overall billing.

Interpretation
Total New Billing reflects how effective your acquisition strategy is for generating revenue. This metric represents the actual revenue generated from new subscriptions in a given period. It's important to compare this metric with New MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue). If there are one-time charges included, Total New Billing will exceed New MRR. Conversely, if a one-time discount is applied, Total New Billing will be lower than New MRR.
