Build my own reports using the wizard via the HR platform

Available for the following HR Plan: Premium, Platinum
Available for the following User Access levels: Admin      

Admins or Owners, they can use the Report Builder feature to craft their own custom report. You can also use this feature to preview a report,  edit the data if it changes, download the information, and delete the record if it is no longer required. Before being able to use the Report Builder feature, you will need to enable Two-Factor Authentication on your account.

Important

A custom report is only accessible to the unique owner or admin user who created the report. An Admin or Owner who created a custom report also cannot grant access to these reports through Custom Security Settings to another user. You can now utilise the progress step bar at the top of the page to navigate directly to the area that you need to edit.
