Spending is part of your self-determination experience. So, it’s only right that you get reports that are simple and easy to use. With the Spending Summary report, you can see all your spending information at the same time. And if you need a quick overview or line-by-line expenses, the Spending Summary gets you all the details you need.
The spending summary report is helpful in a variety of ways. But there are few helpful benefits that stand out.
1. Run a Spending Summary Whenever You Want
With the new report, you don’t have to wait until the end of the month. Sign in to the GT Portal and run a report whenever you need to.
2. See a Visual Overview
The top part of the Spending Summary gives you a quick visual graph, so you can easily see your spending based on category.
3. Dig Into the Details
The bottom part of the Spending Summary gives you a detailed breakdown. You can see all three spending plan categories. And the individual service codes.
4. Stay on Track
To check in on spending and make sure you’re on track, you run a report in real-time. The best time is to check after each payroll because recent purchases will take time after the payroll period to appear.
5. Easily Share Your Reports
Export and download your report with a single click with the PDF or CSV file formats. Or you can view it right in your browser with the HTML format. This makes showing your regional center a breeze.
