Attendances/Absences Overview Graphic (Report RPTLEA40)
Use
This report creates a planning table that represents recorded employee attendances and absences. The graphical interface helps in the leave scheduling process or when checking personnel capacities for a group of employees. The evaluation is carried out for each individual employee. You can also evaluate locked records.
Features
Selection
You can evaluate individual attendances and absences when scheduling leave (vacation).
Output
In the graphic, attendances and absences are represented by color bars (attendances = yellow; absences = red). If locked records are evaluated, their corresponding attendances and absences are displayed with other colors (locked attendances = blue; locked absences = green). You can also enter a text for the applicable attendance or absence type that is also displayed in the color bars.
Evaluation can be presented in various periods, such as daily or weekly. You can specify the timeframe even further in the graphic itself.
After evaluation, you can change the graphic layout (color assignments or grid density, for example).
From the graphic, you can jump to the displayed infotypes or to the Display time data function. For example, you can display additional infotype records or find out more details on the employee’s work schedule.
You can also send the graphic as an e-mail, after exiting.
