Employee Activities Report - Easily Analyse Employee Data with Detailed Breakdowns

Employee Activities Report Overview

The Employee Activities report within the History menu of the SapphireOne Payroll/HR mode allows you to print a breakdown of each employee by using various dates and varying sort criteria.

When the Employee Activities report is selected from the History menu, SapphireOne will present a print dialog screen for the user to select and customise the criteria and data they would like included within the report.

When printing reports, the user should be aware that SapphireOne will assume that it is to print the selected report on all Employees that are currently active and in SapphireOne, the same as when a Employee Activities Inquiry is performed. This may be from just a few Employee Activities but could extend to hundreds or even thousands of employee’s.

Print Destination Menu

The Print Destination menu allows the user to choose the destination for the Report, and select from the options which include Printer, Custom Report, Quick Report and Labels.

Printer  Tells SapphireOne to send the report straight to the Printer. 
Custom Report  This allows the user to create a custom designed report. Once it has been created the user will be able to use this option from the Print Destination menu. 
Quick Report  Selecting this option will open the Sapphire Quick Report function. 
Labels Selecting this option will open the Sapphire Label Design Report Editor, allowing the user to design Labels as required. Labels can be designed and printed on a sheet or roll.

Report Type Menu

Selecting the Report Type menu option will enable the user to print different layout styles of the Details Report.

Review Date Prints all employees with a Review date this month. 
Start Date Prints all employees with a Start date this month. 
Finish Date Prints all employees with a Finish date this month.
