Report Builder
Build any report you need: students, attendance, grades, staff, fees, messages, transportation and more. Filter, choose columns, save, share, export or email.
Report Builder answers questions like which 9th graders missed more than five days this month? or which families still owe fees? Pick a report, filter it, choose the columns, and export it.
Who can do this: Managers, and staff given Report Builder. Each report also needs the permission for what it shows.

Tip: Ask Mira instead: List 9th graders who missed more than five days in October or Which families still owe more than $100? Mira builds the same report in Report Builder for you. See What Mira can do.
Save, share and export
- Save a report to run it again with one click. You can share a saved report with colleagues.
- Export to CSV (up to 100,000 rows), Excel (up to 25,000 rows) or Word (up to 10,000 rows).

Good to know: Saving and exporting always use the last report you ran, so what you export matches what you see.
Frequently asked questions
Why are some columns missing?
Columns about parents or attendance need those permissions. Ask a manager if you need them.
A driver sees fewer rows than I do.
People with limited access see only their own rows, for example a driver's own trips. Full access opens everyone's.
