The annual report gathers the events of one local centre over a date range you choose and lays them out as a single printable document: photo, dates, place, description, and the written event report for each one. It is designed to be printed or saved as a PDF and handed to a board, a funder or an assembly.

Turn it on

Settings → Modules → Events → Reporting & Analytics. Changing these requires ADMIN_TENANT. Either setting is enough on its own: the app checks for one or the other.
The module list also shows National Annual Report. Nothing in the product reads that setting. The per-local-centre report described on this page is the only annual report Orgo generates.

Mark the events to include

An event appears in the report only if someone ticks Add to annual report on the event’s Report screen. There is no automatic inclusion and no bulk action for it, so this is the step that decides what the report contains.

Generate the report

1

Open the local centre

Go to the local centre page. Its actions list includes Annual report.
2

Choose the period

Pick a Report begin date and a Report end date. Any range works, not just a calendar year: a season, a quarter or a mandate period is equally valid.Annual report modal with report begin date and end date pickers and the note that a report can contain maximum 200 events
3

Generate

Press Generate report. The report opens in a new browser tab, without the app sidebar and navigation, so the page is ready to print as it stands.
4

Print or save

Press Print as PDF at the top. That opens your browser’s print dialog, where you can print or choose “Save as PDF”. Background colours and images are forced on for printing.

What goes in

An event is included when all of these are true:
  • it is ticked Add to annual report;
  • its start date falls inside the range you chose;
  • it is hosted by the local centre itself or by one of that centre’s active groups;
  • it is published, or it is your own draft (drafts belonging to other people are never listed);
  • it is a top-level event, not a sub-event of an agenda.
The report is capped at 200 events, which the date modal also states. A longer period simply stops at that ceiling, so split a very active decade into shorter ranges. Generated annual report showing the local centre header and the first event entry with its dates, place, description and report fields Events are listed oldest first. For each one the report prints: A field containing only a dash is skipped, so importing placeholder dashes will not produce empty headings.
Gallery items are rendered as images. Videos and documents attached to an event will not display correctly in the printed report, so keep the gallery to photos for the events you intend to report on.

What it does not include

The report is a qualitative compilation, not a statistics pack. Verify this against your expectations before promising numbers to a board:
  • No totals or averages. There is no count of events, no total attendance, no attendance rate, no unique attendees.
  • No charts and no year on year comparison.
  • No breakdown by event type, group, SDG or volunteer hours.
  • No CSV or data export. The only output is the printable page.
  • No organisation-wide roll-up. One report covers one local centre. For a whole organisation, generate one per centre.
For counted figures on a single event, use Analytics, which computes attendance, capacity and revenue from the attendee records.

Common questions

Check the four conditions in order: the Add to annual report checkbox is ticked, the start date is inside the range, the event is hosted by this local centre or one of its active groups, and the event is published. A draft belonging to someone else will not appear even when it is ticked.
That message means the filter returned nothing. Widen the dates first, then confirm that at least one event of that centre carries the annual report tick.
Not in the app. The report prints as it renders. If you need a cover, an introduction or a different order, print to PDF and assemble the final document outside Orgo.
No. The report is generated from a local centre page and is scoped to that centre and its groups.
