THE POWER OF CUSTOM REPORTS

If you still think of a report as a piece of paper you print or a file you open on your computer, it’s time to harness the power behind reporting. Within your payroll system, Human Resource Information System (HRIS) or Applicant Tracking Systems, there is typically a feature that allows you to build custom reports. The report-writing software within these applications is phenomenal. Let’s take a look at each system:

Payroll System: Traditional payroll registers and reports are great for reviewing data both as a preview and post-processing, but there is so much more you are able to do.

Create “validation” reports to run on a regular basis to find errors in your data. For example, maybe every employee needs a home department in the system that correlates with their cost center. Or, maybe all employees who are non-exempt have a different benefits eligibility category. You can run a report to make sure the correlation is correct before you ever run payroll.
Track productive/non-productive hours by creating a report that looks at working hours and non-working hours and does an in-report calculation to get the percentages.
Automated reports to your benefits carriers can be created as delimited reports that export directly to your vendor on a schedule without the need for manual processes.

HRIS: These reports can range from Statutory Compliance reports to Benefit reports to Talent reports.

Create a report that takes your per pay deductions for benefits and applies a factor to them. This allows you to quickly verify if your invoice is correct. For example, if your per pay deduction for insurance is $100 and you are paid biweekly, that totals $2,600 in premiums per year or $216,67 per month. This calculation can be done within the report to minimize manual work and errors.
Find missing data points for compliance reports by querying fields that are null (have no value).
Maybe you need to know everyone on your staff that is CPR certified or maybe you need to see a list of upcoming CPR expiration dates. With a Custom Report, you can do either – or BOTH!

Reports continue to evolve and become more powerful to guide business decisions.
