Reports

WHMCS includes a wide range of reports to give you in-depth reporting and analytics on the performance of your business. Many reports also include graphs and charts to help you interpret the data.

You can access this feature at Reports > Reports.

You can customize the reports that display in this interface or create new ones. For more information, see Customizing Reports.

By default, an admin role group can access all reports in the system if their permissions include View Reports. However, you can configure admin roles to only view selected reports at Configuration () > System Settings > Administrator Roles or, prior to WHMCS 8.0, Setup > Staff Management > Administrator Roles.

Reports display in several primary categories: General, Billing, Income, Clients, and Support.

Smarty Compatibility

In WHMCS 8.7 and later, this report lists information about legacy Smarty tags that the system has detected in your custom theme and template files.

Smarty 3 removed Smarty's {php}, {include_php}, and {insert} tag functionality. We deprecated these tags in WHMCS 6.0 and will remove support entirely in WHMCS 9.0. You must remove these tags from your custom themes and templates. For more information, see Eliminating Legacy Smarty Tags.

The system scans for {php}, {include_php}, and {insert} tags in all of the following files within your WHMCS installation's root directory:

• All files in the following directories:
  • /includes/hooks
  • /modules
  • /templates
  • /admin/templates
• All email template files.
• All trusted directories in the installation's custom Smarty security policy.

Click Rescan Now to re-scan your WHMCS installation for {php}, {include_php}, and {insert} tags. Clicking Rescan Now erases the previous scan's data.

Within the report, files appear in two sections:

• Template Files lists each tag's file path, filename, and line number. The system sorts this list by the file path.
• Email Templates lists each tag's file path, filename, line number, and email template type. The system sorts this list by template type.
