General analysis logic
The files to which a registered user has access are used as underlying data. If a user can see all the files in the corporate structure, all these files are used as a basis. The files are filtered and analysed accordingly on the basis of the differentiation between company, department and cost centre. Further internal analyses are also carried out with regard to deadlines. The analysis period is either one year or one month.
Opening the application
If no reports have been previously executed, a dialog for execution purposes opens automatically in each group. If a user opens the application for the first time, the following dialog opens:
Executing reports
Then the actual execution of reports follows. The following parameters can be configured:
Full-time equivalent (FTE)
The number of hours worked in a company is defined, divided by the ordinary working hours for a full-time employee. This is usually more informative than the number of persons employed since there are full-time and part-time staff in most companies.
The FTE does not reflect the number of employees. However, the value remains constant over time provided that the company does not change the ordinary working hours.
Synchronous and asynchronous execution without selecting parameters
If a report is executed without defined parameters, all the files available are taken into account. If a date has not been specified, the current date is used as the set date in each case.
This should be repeated in the same way for all other reports.
Buttons for opened reports
Synchronous execution
Dialog shuts, ‘Load’ - dialog opens, the load dialog shuts after a (successful) run, the reporting page is reloaded and a new report is displayed in the overview.
