The Reports section lets you build custom reports from saved queries, giving you a flexible view of your store’s analytics beyond the standard Analytics tabs.
When you open the Reports section, you land on the Reports table. This table lists every report available to your store, including default reports (provided by Aftersell) and any reports you have created. Each row in the table shows:
  • Name — the report name
  • Type — either Default (a report provided by Aftersell) or Custom (a report you created)
  • Last updated — the date and time the report was last modified
  • Delete — available on your own (Custom) reports only; Default reports cannot be deleted
Click any row to open that report.

​
Creating a report

To create a new report, click Create report in the top-right corner of the Reports table. This immediately creates a new blank report named Untitled report N and opens it in edit mode so you can start adding widgets right away. If you have no reports yet, the same Create report button appears in the empty state.

​
Report controls

Three controls apply to every widget on the report at once, so all cards stay in sync. By default, each control is set to Chart Default, which inherits the date range, comparison, and timezone of widgets added to the report.
  • Date Range — set the period you want to see.
  • Comparisons — compare the selected period against another, such as the previous period or the previous year.
  • Time Zone — set the timezone used for dates and time-based grouping.

​
Renaming a report

You can rename any report you created (Custom reports only — Default reports cannot be renamed).
  1. Open the report by clicking its row in the Reports table.
  2. Click Edit report. A pencil icon appears next to the report title in the header.
  3. Click the pencil icon, type the new name, and press Enter, or click away to save.

​
Editing a report

To add or rearrange widgets on a report you own:
  1. Open the report.
  2. Click Edit report in the header.
  3. In edit mode, a Widgets panel appears on the left. Drag a saved query from the panel onto the grid to add it as a widget.
  4. You can also click Add widget to build a new query in the Explorer and add it to the report.
  5. When you are done, click Save to keep your changes, or Cancel to discard them.
Default reports (Type: Default) are read-only and cannot be edited.

​
Widgets

Each item on a report is a widget — a saved query rendered as a visualization. For adding, configuring, and arranging widgets, see Manage widgets.

​
Sharing a report

When viewing a report, click the Share button in the header to generate a shareable link. The recipient opens the report in fullscreen view. The link can only be opened by users authenticated to your Shopify store.
