Use the Billing Realization report to analyze billing variance by client, by lawyer, and by type of law. The report displays total time (hours and fees) for clients and matters along with the billed amount and variance amount for each file, and calculates the percent of billings realized and the effective hourly rate.
This report selects transactions based on bill number. Time billed on bills dated within the selected date range is included in the time calculation on the report. Unbilled time and time billed on bills outside the selected date range are not included.
The report also includes a summary option that totals the above figures for responsible lawyer, working lawyer and area of law, without the breakdown by client and matter.
