Running reports from multiple apps (ie: time sheets, expenses)

We have the same basic app package for each one of our clients, and one of the most used apps is the time sheets app.  Right now, when I do payroll every two weeks I have to go in to each workspace and run a report.  It would be super helpful if we could run a report gathering info from ALL the time sheets app, so I could just enter the time frame, contact, and any other pertinent info, and it would run a report for all the workspaces.  I can see this being useful for time sheets, expenses, billed hours, etc.

  Cross-App Reports:

  This would be extremely helpful for financials as well. Pulling reports from the sales and expenses apps so that it can auto calculate a balance would be great. Is this possible or something that Podio is considering?

  I'm having a similar issue - I have a set of apps to capture our outcomes and outputs, goals, and results, and it would be great to be able to generate a single report that would pull information from multiple apps. Instead I have to click around and will still have to manually compile the information I want into a report.

  Hey Shane and others,

  We will actually introduce something this week that can help you all a bit (although not a full solution). 

  See more here: http://blog.podio.com/2013/08/06/welcomehome/

  This will make it possible for you to collect multiple reports or app views on your personal Home page, thereby combine data and overview from several workspaces. However it does not include the option to combine data from multiple apps in one report, only to show different reports close to each other. 

  We really appreciate the input and idea, although I can not promise if - or when then will be possible. It is shared on our internal feedback list but no plans at this point :)

  Thanks.  If we use the API it should be possible though.. Correct?  Maybe we can code our own.

  Exactly, you can access all data via the API if you want to build your own reports :)
