Build Year-End Profit & Loss Reports Directly in FileMaker

Posted on by Kyo Logic

Year-end reporting is one of the most time-consuming responsibilities for finance teams. Between reconciling systems, gathering departmental data, and generating accurate P&L statements, organizations often rely on manual exports and spreadsheets that could have disparate formats, usages, and storage locations. Coordinating this information in a way that provides accurate and complete reporting is critical.

With Claris FileMaker, businesses can build automated, centralized workflows that consolidate multi-source financial data, perform calculations in real time, and generate ready-to-use Profit & Loss reports—without ever exporting to Excel.

Consolidate Multi-Source Financial Data Automatically

FileMaker excels at bringing together financial information from numerous systems, such as:

  • Accounting platforms

  • ERP systems

  • Inventory tools

  • Sales databases

  • Payroll sources

  • Budgeting applications

Developers can integrate these systems through ODBC, APIs, Claris Connect, or scheduled imports. Once connected, FileMaker becomes a single source of truth that aggregates revenue, expenses, COGS, and operational figures automatically.

No more fragmented data. No more stitching spreadsheets together.

Automate P&L Calculations with Live Data

With centralized data, FileMaker can automate:

  • Revenue rollups

  • Cost-of-goods-sold calculations

  • Expense categorization

  • Gross and net profit formulas

  • Departmental or product-line breakdowns

  • Variance calculations

Because FileMaker updates calculations in real time, finance teams can view realtime data even in the final days of the year when information is changing quickly.

You can even build logic that mirrors your accounting structure or chart of accounts, ensuring consistency and accuracy across every reporting cycle.

Generate P&L Reports Without Leaving FileMaker

Once the data is consolidated and calculations are automated, FileMaker can generate polished P&L reports directly in:

  • Dashboards

  • Print-ready layouts

  • PDF exports

  • Client-specific or department-specific versions

These reports can update on demand, eliminating the repetitive export–format–email cycle that slows teams down each closing period. In addition, FileMaker can export processed data into Excel spreadsheets on demand providing a solid platform to further refine and report information.

For organizations that produce dozens of P&Ls, such as multi-entity companies or agencies, this capability dramatically reduces manual work.

Stronger Accuracy, Faster Close Cycles

By eliminating spreadsheet dependency, FileMaker reduces:

  • Human errors

  • Broken formulas

  • Version confusion

  • Delayed approvals

Teams gain faster month-end and year-end close times, with the confidence that reports reflect accurate, consolidated, up-to-date data.

Conclusion

Claris FileMaker gives organizations a smarter way to create year-end Profit & Loss reports by automating data consolidation, calculations, and reporting—all inside a secure, customizable platform. Whether you manage a single business unit or a multi-entity operation, FileMaker streamlines your financial workflows and eliminates the need for Excel-heavy processes.

Introducing the Multi-File Uploader (Free FileMaker Add-On)

Posted on by Kyo Logic

Introducing the Multi-File Uploader (Free FileMaker Add-On)

Many teams need to attach more than one file at a time… photos, PDFs, spreadsheets, drawings. Out of the box, FileMaker selects a single file per action. The Multi-File Uploader add-on lets you drag-and-drop multiple files at once into your solution, much like you’d expect in modern web apps and storage tools.

You get: faster intake, fewer clicks, and a cleaner experience for staff who work with documents every day.

 

What you can do with it (examples)

  • Upload multiple files in one step to a record (photos, PDFs, spreadsheets, etc.).
  • Preview, download, or delete uploaded files from a simple portal.
  • Keep files with the record you’re viewing (customer, order, project, ticket).
  • Point storage to your own table if you already have a Documents/Files table.

     

Requirements & compatibility

  • FileMaker 19 or later (add-on support).
  • Works in hosted or local files.
  • Designed to drop onto any layout and link to that layout’s primary key.

Quick start (about 5 minutes)

1) Create the add-on bundle

  1. Open FileUploader-Addon.fmp12
  2. Click Create Add-on.
  3. When the script finishes, close FileMaker.

     

2) Install the add-on into your app

  1. Reopen FileMaker and open the target file (the file you want to enhance).
  2. In Layout mode, open the left pane → Add-ons → + Install Add-on.
  3. Select FileUploader and click Choose.
  4. In the Add-ons panel, drag the FileUploader icon onto your layout.

Configure it for your layout (important)

Note on sample code
 These steps are examples. Please update layout names, table occurrences, field names, and any privileges to match your solution before deploying.

Open the script uploader_Upload File and make two small adjustments:

  • Tie uploads to your record

     

  • Change the value of the $id variable on lines 20 and 23 to use the primary key field of the layout’s base table
     (for example, Customers::CustomerID or Jobs::JobID).

     

  1. Choose where files are stored

     

  • By default, files are saved in the included uploaderFiles table.
  • If you keep documents elsewhere, update lines 33–37 in uploader_Upload File to target your own Documents/Files table and fields.

     

How to use (day-to-day)

  1. Click the blue “Upload Files” button.
  2. Drag and drop one or more files into the pop-up window.
  3. Click Upload to attach them to the current record.

Uploaded items appear in the portal below the button, where users can preview, download, or delete files as needed.

How it fits in real workflows

  • Field service or inspections: Drop in photos and checklists from a visit. No extra steps.
  • Sales and account records: Keep proposals, SOWs, and change orders with the customer.
  • Operations and projects: Store drawings, packaging specs, or vendor certifications on the job.
  • Support tickets: Attach screenshots and logs to speed up resolution.

Styling tips

  • Restyle the button and portal objects to match your theme.
  • Consider a card-style container for the file list (light background, subtle border).
  • If your theme has specific button/icon styles, apply them to the uploader controls.

Security & deployment

  • Apply privilege sets so only the right roles can upload or delete files.
  • If you change the storage table, confirm that accounts have the correct record and field access.
  • Test on a copy of your file before rolling out to production users.

Troubleshooting

  • Add-on not visible? Confirm you ran Create Add-on and restarted FileMaker before installing.
  • Files not linking to the right record? Re-check the $id assignment on lines 20 and 23 of uploader_Upload File.
  • Files not appearing in your table? If you pointed storage to a custom table, verify lines 33–37 and field mappings.
  • Portal looks empty? Ensure the portal is pointed at the correct related table occurrence and that the relationship uses your record’s primary key.

Special Thank You

The Multi-File Uploader would not be possible without Jason Wood of Define Database’s work. Jason originally created this tool for usage in S3, which we then converted for use in Filemaker. You can learn more about his original work here. Thank you Jason!

 

Download and next steps

If you would like a hand, we can help you drop the add-on onto a layout, point it to your primary key, and adjust the storage table. A short working session is often enough.

Appendix (for power users)

  • Consider adding a server-side cleanup routine (e.g., remove orphaned files if a record is deleted).
  • If you need versioning (v1, v2 files), add a simple counter field and include it in the file name on upload.
  • For large files, provide a progress indicator (conditional object tied to a “busy” flag set during upload).
  • If you keep documents externally (S3, Azure), adapt the storage portion of uploader_Upload File to write URLs and use a signed URL pattern for downloads.

Introducing the Communication Log (Free FileMaker Add-On)

Posted on by Kyo Logic

Most teams track conversations in email threads, chat, and spreadsheets. When you need the full picture on a client, order, job, or ticket, context is scattered. A Communication Log centralizes those touchpoints right on the record, so anyone can see what was said, by whom, and when without leaving FileMaker.

You get: faster handoffs, fewer “did anyone call them?” moments, and an audit trail you can trust.

What you can do with it (examples)

  • Pin call notes, emails, and internal comments to any record

  • See a chronological timeline of interactions in one place

  • Load a log per customer, order, project, etc.

Requirements & compatibility

  • Works with modern FileMaker versions that support Add‑ons (FileMaker 19+).

  • Designed to drop onto any layout and point to your base table’s primary key

  • Ships with two helper scripts: dialog_Create Message and dialog_Load WebViewer

Quick start (5 minutes)

  1. Create the add‑on bundle

    • Download and open FileUploader-Addon.

    • Click Create Add‑on.

    • When the script finishes, close FileMaker.

  2. Install the add‑on into your app

    • Reopen FileMaker and open the target file.

    • In Layout mode, open the left pane → Add‑ons → Install Add‑on.

    • Select CommunicationLog and click Choose.

  1. Drop it into a layout

    • In the Add‑ons panel, drag the CommunicationLog onto the layout you want.

    • Restyle to match your theme (styles, fonts, colors).

 

  1. (Optional) Support multiple contexts

    • Open the script dialog_Create Message.

    • Replace the hard‑coded IDs on lines 10 and 20 with your layout’s primary key field (e.g., Customers::CustomerID).

    • This lets you reuse the add‑on on different layouts (Customers, Orders, Projects) and keep each log scoped correctly.

  2. Load behavior (recommended)

    • Trigger dialog_Load WebViewer on OnRecordLoad or OnLayoutEnter.

    • Pass the record’s primary key as a JSON parameter.

    • Use the example attached to the add‑on’s “Load Dialog” button as the source of truth for the correct JSON keys.

  3. Example (generic):
    // Script trigger parameter
    JSONSetElement ( “{}”
    ; [ “ID_LOG” ; YourTable::PrimaryKey ; 1]
     )

How it fits into real workflows

  • Sales/Account Management: Log calls and emails against a customer; see the full history before a renewal call.

  • Service/Support: Tie notes to a ticket; cut back on “who said what” confusion.

  • Operations/Projects: Keep vendor or internal coordination readable at a glance.

Styling tips

  • Create custom object styles for headings, timestamps, and message text to match your app.

  • Consider a light/dark background card for readability.

  • If the add‑on exposes buttons (add, filter, etc.), map them to your theme’s button style.

Security & deployment

  • Apply proper privilege sets so only the right users can add or edit messages.

  • Test on a copy of your file before deploying to users.

Troubleshooting

  • Add‑on doesn’t appear? Make sure you ran Create Add‑on and then restarted FileMaker before installing.

  • Web Viewer is blank? Confirm the dialog_Load WebViewer script is firing and that you’re passing the expected JSON key(s).

  • Messages not tied to the right record? Double‑check you replaced the hard‑coded IDs on lines 10 and 20 in dialog_Create Message with your primary key.

Download + next steps
Download the Communication Log (attached here)

Credentials for the demo: Admin / Admin (update before production).

Have 30 minutes? We’ll help you drop the add‑on into your file, point it at your primary key, and confirm the trigger/JSON parameter setup.

Appendix (for power users)

  • Consider calling the load script on both OnRecordLoad and OnLayoutEnter if you allow record switching and fast layout navigation.

  • If you need more than a single log per context (e.g., separate internal vs. external threads), duplicate the add‑on instance and drive each with a different context key.

  • Source control: version your add‑on bundle and keep a lightweight readme of local changes for your team.

GetFieldsOnLayout and Dynamic UI Creation

Posted on by Kyo Logic

FileMaker 2025 introduces a new function that’s small in name but huge in impact: GetFieldsOnLayout. This addition allows developers to dynamically retrieve all fields that exist on a given layout—making it easier than ever to create adaptive, data-aware user interfaces that respond intelligently to context and user permissions.


Smarter, More Flexible Interfaces Traditionally, UI updates in FileMaker required developers to hard-code field lists or manually update scripts whenever layouts changed. With GetFieldsOnLayout, you can now query which fields exist on any layout at runtime.

That means you can:

  • Automatically build record views or reports that adapt to layout changes

  • Filter available fields by user role, record type, or access level

  • Dynamically display or hide fields without editing scripts manually

This dramatically reduces maintenance overhead and makes your apps more resilient as layouts evolve.

How It Works GetFieldsOnLayout ( layoutName ) returns a JSON array of all fields currently present on the specified layout. Developers can then parse this JSON and use it to power dynamic UI generation, reporting logic, or layout-aware automation.

Example use case:
 A developer might build a script that automatically populates dropdowns or data grids based on the fields found in a layout. If a field is added or removed later, the UI updates automatically. No script changes required.

 

Building Dynamic Dashboards and Reports The combination of GetFieldsOnLayout with FileMaker’s JSON and scripting functions opens up exciting new possibilities:

  • Dynamic dashboards that automatically populate charts or KPIs based on layout fields.

  • Role-based interfaces that hide sensitive data depending on user privilege.

  • Smart reporting tools that adapt to layout changes without developer intervention.

These capabilities make FileMaker more modular, data-driven, and scalable for organizations with evolving business needs.

Why It Matters By introducing GetFieldsOnLayout, FileMaker 2025 eliminates one of the biggest friction points in UI management: keeping your front-end synchronized with your schema. Developers can now build smarter, more responsive apps that require less maintenance and deliver a better user experience.

Conclusion GetFieldsOnLayout is a deceptively simple addition that unlocks powerful, dynamic UI capabilities in FileMaker 2025. Whether you’re generating adaptive dashboards, automating reports, or managing user-specific layouts, this function helps your app evolve as your data does.

Faster Scripting: Code Folding and Navigation Updates

Posted on by Kyo Logic

FileMaker 2025 introduces major improvements to the Script Workspace, giving developers the ability to move through complex scripts faster and write cleaner, more maintainable code. 

These updates, which are focused on code folding, enhanced navigation tools, and better organizational controls, make scripting more efficient for both new and experienced developers.

Code Folding: Simplify Complex Logic

One of the most welcome additions to Script Workspace is code folding. Developers can now collapse or expand sections of scripts, making it easier to manage lengthy processes.

Instead of scrolling through hundreds of lines, you can:

  • Collapse loops, conditional branches, or repetitive routines

  • Focus on the logic you’re actively editing

  • Keep scripts tidy for easier debugging and collaboration

This feature is especially valuable in enterprise solutions, where scripts often span multiple workflows and layouts.

 

 

Improved Navigation and Organization

FileMaker 2025 also introduces smarter navigation options inside Script Workspace, designed to reduce friction during development. Developers can:

  • Jump quickly between script sections or functions

  • Use search and filter tools to find steps by name or keyword

  • Navigate through scripts with clearer visual cues and indentation

Combined with the new Go to List of Records script step and enhanced script grouping, these updates make the workspace feel faster and more intuitive (especially when working across multiple scripts or modules).

 

 

Why It Matters for Developers

For anyone managing large, logic-heavy solutions, the new Script Workspace saves time at every turn. Developers can organize scripts by purpose, collapse logic when not in use, and find specific actions in seconds. Over time, these workflow improvements add up to significant productivity gains.

Beyond convenience, these updates also improve collaboration and maintainability. Clean, well-organized scripts are easier for teams to understand and modify, reducing onboarding time and preventing costly errors.

The Script Workspace updates in FileMaker 2025 give developers the clarity and control they’ve been asking for. With code folding, faster navigation, and smarter organization tools, building complex scripts is now faster, cleaner, and far more manageable.

FileMaker Cloud 2025: What This Means for Modern FileMaker Deployments

Posted on by Kyo Logic

Claris has announced that FileMaker Cloud 2025 (v2.22) is arriving in November, bringing faster performance, new security updates, and a few critical compatibility changes.

For most developers, this release isn’t about flashy new features, it’s about alignment: keeping your apps compatible, secure, and future-ready as the FileMaker platform continues its cloud-first evolution.

 

Why It Matters

The new FileMaker Cloud version introduces updated security infrastructure, improved monitoring, and performance optimizations built on the same Ubuntu foundation as FileMaker Server 2025.

But the real story is compatibility: older clients won’t connect after the upgrade. That means organizations running legacy versions of FileMaker Pro or Go need to update before November 6 to avoid user lockouts or connection errors.

In other words:

If you’re running FileMaker Pro earlier than 20.3.2 or FileMaker Go before version 21, plan your upgrades now.

 

What’s New

FileMaker Cloud 2025 brings:

  • Enhanced encryption and security certification (SOC 2 Type 2, ISO/IEC)

     

  • Expanded AWS region support for better regional performance and compliance

     

  • Proactive infrastructure management handled entirely by Claris (patching, updates, OS maintenance)

     

  • Improved version-checking tools so admins can automatically prompt users to update

     

Together, these updates continue Claris’s push toward a self-maintaining, secure, and scalable FileMaker environment (especially for organizations ready to offload infrastructure management).

 

How to Prepare

If you’re an administrator:

  1. Audit your connected clients.
     Use the Admin Console’s Access.log or Claris’s sample file to check which FileMaker Pro/Go versions are still in use.

     

  2. Set up an upgrade prompt.
     You can script a simple version check using Get ( ApplicationVersion ) on file open. Claris even provides a template!

     

  3. Review your maintenance schedule.
     Manual upgrades open November 6, and systems with automatic maintenance will update during their next scheduled window.

     

For teams that rely on continuous uptime, this is a good opportunity to test in a staging environment before upgrading production systems.

 

Where It Fits

Claris continues to narrow the gap between on-premise and cloud deployments, with FileMaker Cloud now offering many of the same administrative controls as FileMaker Server (but without the maintenance burden).

For Kyo Logic clients, we see FileMaker Cloud 2025 as a strong fit for:

  • Teams that need enterprise-grade security without managing servers

     

  • Organizations with distributed workforces or multi-region access needs

     

  • Businesses planning to integrate Claris Connect or AI-driven features that depend on modern infrastructure

     

If you’re still hosting your own FileMaker Server but curious about the cloud transition, this release makes the case stronger than ever.

 

Kyo Logic’s Take

Claris isn’t just maintaining the platform, they’re future-proofing it. With FileMaker Cloud 2025, the company is making sure that as FileMaker continues to integrate AI, APIs, and data services, your infrastructure won’t hold you back.

We recommend using this update window to:

  • Confirm client version compliance

     

  • Evaluate whether your hosting environment still fits your operational goals

     

  • Explore modernization opportunities, like hybrid AI or analytics layers built on FileMaker 2025
