Enter the name of the report, up to 100 characters.
Start/End Date
Select the start and date for the headcount period. Any date period can be selected, and the report will show those years in the output.
If there is no data for a date period or parts of the date period, then the report will be blank for the areas with no data.
Hierarchy
Select the organizational unit (OU) hierarchy. Only one hierarchy can be selected. The options available are the OUs that are configured for your portal, as well as manager/reporting hierarchy. Custom OUs are also available.
The OU that is selected determines how the headcount is grouped or aggregated and will be how you navigate through or interact with the report. While the User Type and User Employment Status fields define what constitutes a “headcount” for the report, the Hierarchy field defines how you see those headcount in the report.

User Employment Status
This section allows you to select one or more user statuses. The options that are available are the default options that are defined by the administrator in User Preferences.
Selecting a user type will filter all users in your portal into a narrower category of headcount. For example, if your headcount includes users with a status of "Working" and "On Leave" but not "Terminated," then the headcount is narrowed down to the users who are in those user statuses and would not include users in a "Terminated" status.
