The PIM Reports offer robust reporting capabilities that allow users to generate reports based on all fields within the PIM module in addition to a set of commonly used canned reports. This functionality enables users to retrieve information such as Employee Turnover - Hiring Report, Employee Turnover - Termination Report, Head Count Report (Per Location), Head Count Report (Per Sub Unit), License Expiry Report, etc.
Admin users can create custom reports and select fields within the PIM module that should be displayed in the report. Detailed and precise PIM reports can be generated by adding relevant fields and setting specific criteria during the report creation process.

How to add charts
The “Show Chart” icon is visible once the user creates the PIM report. The icon is displayed in the top right corner. Once the user selects the show chart option, the system displays the available chart type options the user can choose from. They can then proceed to create the chart by providing the chart settings to create the desired chart type.
Step 1: Upon clicking the "Show Chart" icon, the system displays the following window to set the chart settings.
Field | Description |
Chart Type | Select the chart type Ex: Bar chart, Pie Chart |
Group By | This is the value that you have to select as the X-axis if it is for a bar chart. For instance, if it is required to group new recruits based on the year, such as how many employees joined each month, you could select group by year and then group by month by adding up to a maximum of 3 dropdowns |
Aggregate |
This is the value that you have to select as the Y-axis if it is for a bar chart |
Aggregate Type | If the user selects a numeric field as the aggregate value, the available options are "count". If the user selects a non-numeric field as the aggregate value, the available options are "Count", "Sum", "Average" |
Show Summary Table | Enable/disable summary table |
Hide Detailed Data | Enable/disable Detailed data information |
Add to Dashboard | Enable the report as a widget in the dashboard/home screen |
If a chart is defined as 'Group By' = 'Job Title', 'Aggregate' = 'Records', 'Aggregate Type' = 'Count', if its a Bar chart it will be displayed with Job Titles in X-axis and No. of employees having each Job Title in Y-axis. If it's a Pie Chart, slices will represent the job titles and the percentage of employees having each job title will be displayed.
