The Transactions section offers a UI where you can see Transactions and Reports views, which are configurable. It allows you to view all transactions related data within one section. The Timeline view allows you to view all your transactions sorted either by the transaction close date or the subscription start date. In addition, you can also drill down to view what products were sold in a transaction.

The Reports view provides 7 out-of-the-box reports that are built on Header, Lines, and Customer Product objects, which contain transactions related data. In addition, you can also generate custom reports on Header, Lines, and Customer Product objects.

Note: Out-of-the-box reports are created only when you complete the Product Transactions configuration and then choose to generate reports from the Automate and Aggregation step. The option to generate reports appears only when there are no existing reports that are built on Header, Lines, or Customer Product objects.
