Run Custom Time Tracking Reports with Data Source Filters

Run Custom Time Tracking Reports with Data Source Filters

  • Create Custom Reports. Create custom reports built off any of these data sources:
    • Schedule Blocks
    • Time Day
    • Time Week
    • Time Month
    • Time Exceptions for a Period
  • Security:
    Reports: Time Tracking
    domain in the Time Tracking or Time Tracking Hub functional area.
When you run custom Time Tracking reports, Workday gathers data from multiple sources for all active workers. Filtering this data before running reports is more efficient than filtering it afterwards.
  1. Access the
    Run Custom Report
    task.
  2. Run the custom Time Tracking report.
  3. Set up data source filtering. As you complete the task, consider:
    Option Description
    Exclude workers who have never entered time or time off
    When you have many workers who don’t report time or time off, limit the report to display only workers who do.
    Exclude Scheduling Data
    When you include scheduling data, Workday checks for eligibility for work schedule calendars while running the report. Improve performance by excluding scheduling data when you don’t want to report on it.
    Workers
    Select a subset of workers by choosing the workers individually. You can select active, inactive, and terminated workers.
    Locations
    Select all workers at a specific location.
    Job Profiles
    Select workers by job family or job profile.
The report will include all workers who match any of the filter categories you selected.
This example illustrates how you can filter data sources when running a Time Tracking report.
