Labor-Edits Reports
This report models after the Edits form, but in a worksheet format so you can print it out and make notes on it, etc.
Current Edits Report
The current Labor Time Punches for Employees by Department ID and EmployeeID with Lunch punches included.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Current Edits Report No 9999 (No Lunch)
The current Labor Time Punches for Employees by Department ID and EmployeeID without including the lunch punches, so you don't have to sift through as much data.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Labor-History Reports <Top>
Archived Time Punch Totals
Processed and Archived time punches including lunch punches.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Archived Time Punch Totals No 9999
Processed and Archived time punches without lunch punches.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
The Labor-Planning Report <Top>
The Labor Report is only one report in this category. It functions as a Production Scheduling Report focusing on your Labor Estimates versus your Labor Supply. This is basically like MRP, but for Labor supply and demand instead of Materials. It gets its data from Labor Estimates on Jobs/Sales Order Labor and the Weekly Labor Detail that gets entered in the Weekly Labor Supply Manager. This report sorts the Labor Capacity by Department and Week. It first lists the Total Hours available, based on the Weekly Labor Supply, then gives a running total, subtracting the Demand of Labor Estimates for Jobs scheduled for that week. For this report to work right, the Date field for the Labor Estimates needs to be the estimated Start Date for the Department, and is best to always set it to the closest Monday Date to that start date. This report can be filtered by Date Range, and then by Department and/or Function in the Advanced Selection Criteria.

In the screenshot example below, you can see that first Department on the report is Department 100, aka the Production 1 Department, with Function 0, meaning no specific function is being detailed. For the first week listed (which is the Monday Estimated Start Date) for this Department, based on the available Labor Hours, they only have three Job/Phases estimated to work and after those estimated hours are subtracted, they have a surplus of 21 available Labor Hours. The following week they have a surplus of 28 Hours. The third week out they have a Deficit of 10 Hours, as indicated by the red number in the Running Total Column. For further analysis, this report could be exported to Excel and the Departments could be compared one to another for the week. This information could also be looked at in conjuction with the Labor WIP Reports and other Production Schedule factors to take appropriate action to effectively balance the workload.
Labor-Processed Reports <Top>
This report gives you a daily and/or weekly report of what you have put into Job Costing. This is basically a time card.
Emp Hours Daily Summary-Processed
Last Processed Daily Summary by Employee.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Emp Hours Weekly Summary-Processed
Last Processed Total Summary by Employee.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Labor-WIP Reports <Top>
These reports provide detailed labor reports on all the punches you have not processed yet. Use these reports to see where people are at on Jobs. These reports provide in-depth labor reports as opposed to Production WIP. There is so much detail here that we provide ways to breakdown the reports to filter by Employee, Department and Job. It really depends on who in the organization is looking at the data. A department lead is going to be looking for different things than the owner, etc. There is a lot of data here and Master Solutions will help you determine what data you want or need, and teach you how to use the different reports. The data here is so massive that in some cases it could also be helpful to output to Excel for natural grouping analysis. This can be really helpful for job scheduling and analysis.
Current Time Punch Totals
All employee daily punches grouped by Department. Basically a complete breakdown on each employee for a day, of what jobs and all their time punches. You could go in every day with this report and print out the previous days data, or maybe a date range. Then the Production lead could look at it and find discrepancies. This should only take 10-15 mins/day. With a report like this you would be dealing with a lot of data and would basically just be looking for oddities, like job numbers that don't make sense, or employees clocked into departments where they don't usually belong, or employees clocked in to jobs longer than you would normally expect. A production lead can go out to the floor with this report and investigate the oddities, and then bring it back in to the office to be fixed.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Current Time Punch Totals No 9999 (No Lunch)
This is the same report as above, but with no lunch punches reported. This makes it easier to analyze without the clutter from the lunch punches.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
WIP Breakdown By Department
Here you can see department breakdowns per job and date range. Again there is a lot of data in this report so it really depends on what kind of data you are looking for. For instance, if a Department lead were using this report, it may be more appropriate for him to open this report using the Advanced Selection screen in the report manager to filter for just his department, and maybe just a particular job, or even just a particular employee. Then there will be less data to sift through.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
WIP Breakdown By Employee
This report is the same as the department report except it focuses the employees, and you can then filter out just a specific employee, etc. It is an employee centric report.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
WIP Breakdown By Employee Total
This report gives a summarized Employee WIP report.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
WIP Breakdown By Job
A WIP report showing the Job Number then Department, Function and Employee breakdowns by date and hours worked. You can filter by Job Number, Phase Number, Department ID, Function, and Employee ID.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
WIP Breakdown By Job Dept/Func Totals Only
This report is used when you just want to look at specific jobs with summaries of the department time.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Employee Actions Follow Up
List of all actions to follow up on a single employee. This is based on the Employee Actions Data, when using the Employee Actions Manager. It can be filtered by Date Range, EmployeeID and Employer Action.
Here is a screenshot example of this report:
Note: Whenever you run a report and get any kind of error listings on them, make sure to check the criteria for that report. The criteria is always listed at the top of the report, and shows you the data that drives the report. See what criteria is listed then go back and make sure there are entries in the data for all of that criteria. Here is an example of the Listed Criteria for a Report (The criteria's here are JobPhase, Dept, Started, Complete, and Production Started):
