 Reports - System

Beth is the COO of a growing company with almost 2,000 employees. She knows the company has been accelerating its expansion, especially in certain Division and Location Organizational Units (OU). To study these trends, Beth used to have an analyst compute the aggregate headcount in different OUs using Excel.

Now, with the Headcount Trend Report and after a one-time data load of historical data, Beth can explore these trends over her entire company's history without an analyst's help. She can view the headcount in each standard OU, apply filters on what constitutes a “headcount” in her organization, and drill in and out of specific parts of the organization. This report facilitates resource planning and basic organizational management with Finance, Human Resources, and the rest of the executive team.
