Sort of depends what you are trying to get at here. All of that would be a bit ambitious to try to get in one report. I kind of think of it this way. A/R report, Invoices sent out with the Fees, Costs, Interest breakout and whether it has been paid pretty much tells you what that client has been "worth" to you. For most firms, they pretty much get paid what they bill. If they don't, then you issue a writeoff. Again, should be a rare occurrence. So I would like to look specifically at writeoffs and see how much and WHY. The why is the big one here. It may have had nothing at all to do with who did the work. You can run an A/R transactions report and ask for only Write Offs to better focus on them. Of course that also assumes that you are entering the Write Off and not just letting it languish on your Aged A/R in some faint home that someday that client will suddenly write you a check. :-) So Aged A/R sorted by Responsible Attorney is one of my favorite reports because it tells me who is letting their client's slide and not pay. If you want to see who's time is getting paid, that is a Collections report. Hope that helps.
