Profit & Loss by Period
A P&L report answers one question: did the club make money in this period, and how much is left after expenses? IZI covers the full revenue side. You add the cost and expense data your accounting tool holds, and the result is a complete operating picture.
For day-to-day management, a monthly P&L is the right cadence — it matches rent cycles and purchasing. Quarterly works for tax purposes. If you want to track trends, export IZI data monthly and keep a rolling spreadsheet.
Step 1 — Choose your period
Section titled “Step 1 — Choose your period”Pick the range: week, month, or quarter. All IZI data is shift-based, so a period is simply the sum of shifts that fall within it.
Revenue data comes from Shift History (see Shift Z-report for how each shift is structured).
Step 2 — Pull revenue from IZI
Section titled “Step 2 — Pull revenue from IZI”In Shift History, set start and end dates, then sum across all shifts:
| Metric | Where to find it |
|---|---|
| Accrual revenue | ”Accrual revenue” line on each shift |
| Sessions | ”Sessions” category in the Z-report |
| Bar | ”Bar” category |
| Combo | ”Combo” category |
| Refunds | ”Refunds” line — subtract this |
Revenue for the period = sum of (Charges − Refunds) across all shifts.
Step 3 — Calculate cost of goods sold
Section titled “Step 3 — Calculate cost of goods sold”Bar COGS is the purchase cost of goods actually sold.
Formula:
COGS = Purchases in period − (Closing inventory − Opening inventory)Accurate COGS requires cost prices set on every product in the warehouse. Without them, COGS shows as zero and gross profit is overstated. See Expenses tracking for how to configure this.
Step 4 — Add your external expenses
Section titled “Step 4 — Add your external expenses”IZI does not track operating expenses in the current version. Bring in the following from your own records:
| Expense category | Data source |
|---|---|
| Rent | Lease agreement |
| Payroll | Timesheets, pay slips |
| Bar purchases | Supplier invoices |
| Internet and utilities | Bills |
| Equipment maintenance | Service receipts |
| Licenses and subscriptions | Including IZI license |
Step 5 — Calculate the result
Section titled “Step 5 — Calculate the result”Revenue (from IZI)− Bar COGS= Gross profit
− Payroll− Rent− Internet and utilities− Other expenses= Operating profit (club EBITDA)Full P&L structure
Section titled “Full P&L structure”| Line | Source |
|---|---|
| Revenue: sessions | IZI → Sessions category |
| Revenue: bar | IZI → Bar category |
| Total revenue | Sum of lines |
| Bar COGS | Purchases data |
| Gross profit | Revenue − COGS |
| Payroll | Your own data |
| Rent | Your own data |
| Other | Your own data |
| Operating profit | Final result |

Can I export IZI data to Excel?
Yes. From Shift History and Analytics you can export to CSV or Excel. Set your date range and click Export.
Should I use accrual revenue or cash receipts?
Use accrual revenue (charges). Revenue is recognized when a session or bar sale occurs, not when the customer tops up. Top-ups are liabilities until redeemed. Revenue for the period = Charges - Refunds across all shifts.
Why does IZI revenue differ from my bank statement?
IZI uses the accrual method; your bank records cash received. Part of revenue may be paid with bonus points — IZI shows it as revenue, but no cash changes hands. For P&L purposes, always use IZI accrual revenue.
