This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas |
There is currently only one option to generate a Canvas Catalog Revenue Report: export a report including all transactions across all time. In most instances, we only need to see transactions that cover a specific period of time.
As our institution continues to use Catalog, the dataset of the full revenue report becomes larger and larger. Each time we need to export a revenue report, it takes more time to process. Currently, it takes almost an hour to export our full revenue report.
It would be essential to implement a date filter for revenue reports. There will be a point in time where the dataset becomes so large that it would be unfeasible to generate a report in a timely fashion.
Adding a date filter to Catalog revenue reports would allow us to create more concise reports that do not take as long to process.
