Overall Spend report

The Overall Spend report provides a high level dashboard view of travel spend. This report serves as a more detailed version of the more general Overview report. It contains an overview of spend metrics per traveler and booking source. The sub-filters can be used to restrict the data shown to specific travelers, departments, offices, or countries.

For a list of all analytics reports available from the Spotnana Online Booking tool, a list of the filters that can be used with them, as well as how their general visualization graphs work, see Analytic reports
