The Custom Report gives you the freedom to build your own report, customizing the data you wish to report on. Choose from our standard data fields and custom fields that you set up via Custom Forms.
It saves down the report you create, making it easier and faster to generate the same report throughout your sales period and across events.
This report will download the data into an csv. file, making it ideal for your customizing to your needs and uploading it into 3rd party systems.
