Common Tasks

Exporting Report Data

Report data is displayed in sortable tables. To export:
  1. Select all data in the report table
  2. Copy and paste into a spreadsheet application

Comparing Periods

To see how ownership has changed over time:
  1. Run the Holder Report for the current state
  2. Navigate to Agreements to view historical snapshots
  3. Compare the current cap table with past operating agreement snapshots

Checking Pool Utilization

The Pools Report’s Treasury column quickly shows how much capacity remains in each pool. A pool with zero treasury is fully allocated and cannot accept new grants without increasing its size.

Tips

Members with the “View Self” permission can only see their own rows in reports. Members with “View Cap Table” can see the full reports for all holders.
The Holder Report footer row is useful for quickly verifying that total ownership percentages and share counts are correct.
Use the Pools Report to stay on top of option pool utilization. Running out of pool capacity can delay hiring offers that include equity compensation.

Troubleshooting

Cause: There may be no shareholdings, pools, or holdings in your organization yet, or you may not have permission to view them.Solution: Make sure your cap table has data. Check that you have the viewCapTable permission. If you only have viewSelf, you will only see your own holdings.
Cause: The Holder Report shows both outstanding and fully-diluted percentages. These will differ if there are option pools or convertible instruments.Solution: Check which column you are reading. “Ownership %” is based on outstanding shares; “FD Ownership %” includes all reserved shares from pools and convertibles.
Cause: Members with zero holdings and no voided records are automatically excluded.Solution: This is expected behavior. The Holder Report only shows members who have current or historical shareholdings.
