People reports

Turn your people, time off and qualifications into tables and charts, with no exporting.

Start a report

  1. Choose the data, which sets what each row is:

    • People: one row per person, with their employment, leave and absence, compliance, shifts and equipment.

    • Time off: one row per time off request, with days and hours kept separate.

    • Qualifications: one row per qualification someone holds, with its expiry status and SIA licences.

  2. Start from a question under What do you want to find out? and reshape it, or build your own from scratch.

  3. Choose a chart, such as a table, a single figure, a bar or line chart, a pie or a treemap.

  4. Add fields. Select any field and it goes in the right place, or drag it into Rows, Columns, Values or Filters.

  5. Give the report a name and select Save.

Questions to start from

For People:

  • Headcount by department: how many people are in each department?

  • Leave left this year: who still has leave to take?

  • Right to work running out: whose right to work has expired, or runs out within 30 days?

  • Probation reviews coming up: who is still on probation, and when does it end?

  • Sickness patterns (Bradford factor): whose sickness absence over the last year needs a conversation?

  • Shift hours, last 4 weeks: who has worked the most shift hours this month?

  • Contracts and hours: what mix of contracts do we have, and how many hours do they cover?

For Time off:

  • Who is off in the next 30 days: who is away over the next month?

  • Sickness by month: how much sick leave are we seeing each month?

Good to know:

  • Reports only show what you're allowed to see. Pay fields only appear for people with access to Pay.

  • Time off and Qualifications include each person's details, such as job title, department and line manager, so you can group by them.

  • Time off keeps days and hours apart, because some leave is booked in days and some in hours.

  • The builder works the same way as Portfolio reports. See Building reports under Portfolio.
