If you hover over the green target bar as shown you get the target and total so far, at the end it shows the percentage of target:
If you click the bar once, then it changes to predicted month end result.
If you hover over the bar again, you can see your pro-rata figures:

Do you have to manual upload daily data to pvoutput? I couldn't see a way for it to automatically pick up my solar edge output?
SolarEdge+pvoutput+wunderground=happy campers!
You'll need the solaredge API - you can ask your installer but mine and others I know of got the wrong api info!
Best bet is to email solaredge support (support@solaredge.com), supplying the serial number (available on the box the inverter came in, on the display panel, on the manuals) and your name and the installer details, and ask them to provide the correct API for feeding to pvoutput.
Create an account at weatherunderground if you want the weather data in your pvoutput page. Choose the stratus free account, check settings and make a note of the wunderground API key.
PVoutput settings are simple, once you get your head round it!
It was actually 2 of the forum members here who got solaredge and pvoutput talking to each other (jimmyboy420 and Aging Stick Insect).
Loads more info if you search the forum for the necessary terms, solaredge pvoutput
