Open Analytics Feeds when another reporting system needs structured data from Farin.

This page is easier to trust than a hand-built spreadsheet export that changes every week.

Quick facts

Start here

  • Analytics feeds work best when the source accounting setup is already clean.
  • Feed review is still important even when the export is automated.
  • The goal is repeatable reporting, not one more manual file to clean up.

Step 1: Review the feed options and scope

Open Analytics Feeds and review which feed is meant for the reporting job you need to support.

Match the feed to the audience and reporting tool instead of sending more raw data than needed.

The analytics feeds page helps you choose the right export path for downstream reporting instead of building one-off spreadsheets.

Step 2: Recheck the feed after source changes

  • If sales channels, accounts, or tax logic change, recheck the feed output before external reports depend on it.
  • Keep feed consumers informed when a source change affects what they expect to receive.
Review the feed again after upstream accounting changes so outside reporting tools do not drift out of sync silently.
