Profitability Report Portlet

The Project Profitability Report portlet the Project 360 Dashboard shows the comparison of project revenue and cost to show each project’s total profitability.

Note:

This portlet matches with the data from the Profit and Loss or P&L subtab of a project record, which supports modifications on the standard project profitability configuration in your account.

A P&L subtab displays real-time information about the profitability of your project. The revenue, cost, profit, and margin are listed for project labor, expenses, and supplies. See, Profit and Loss Subtab.

The following screenshot shows a sample information included in the Profitability Report portlet:
