Overview Custom Reports is an ad hoc reporting tool that enables you to choose the fields to include in your reports. You can create your own fields, such as those used to project salary increases. Custom Reports also enables you to rearrange columns, rename column headings, and apply various formatting options to your reports. You can schedule your reports to run at specified times or on a regular recurring schedule. You can create an unlimited number of reports, which you can view in several different formats.

MODULE 1: EXPLORING CUSTOM REPORTS Example 2 Example 3 2015 ADP, LLC 1-3 W8004_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

MODULE 1: EXPLORING CUSTOM REPORTS What Are the Differences between Standard, Sample, and Custom Reports? Overview ADP Workforce Now includes various types of reports to meet your different needs. Report data is categorized into files that are displayed in the Report Wizard when you select fields for your custom report, as shown in the following graphic: Report data files usually contain multiple secondary files, and the available fields for the reports are available within these files, as shown in the following graphic: This icon indicates a Report data file. This icon indicates available fields within the Report data file. 2015 ADP, LLC 1-4 W8004_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

MODULE 1: EXPLORING CUSTOM REPORTS Types and Descriptions Standard reports Sample reports Custom reports Type Description Predefined reports that are read-only; you can run them but cannot customize, nor create copies to customize A predefined collection of reports that are readonly Reports that you can design from scratch using available reporting fields, or you can create a copy of any of the sample reports and then edit the copy to meet your specific reporting needs Examples Standard report example: A Payroll practitioner wants to quickly view the payroll information regarding bonus pay before sending it to ADP for processing. He uses the standard report Paydata Summary with a predefined group of fields to quickly view the desired information. Sample report example: An HR practitioner wants a report listing all new hires. She runs the New Hire sample report, which includes payroll company code, payroll name, associate ID, hire date, rehire date, length of service, job title description, hire source description and education level description. Custom report example: The HR practitioner needs additional information than the sample report includes, so she copies the New Hire sample report and customizes it to include the employees' departments. Important Information The standard and sample reports available to you depend on which modules your company has selected. Additional Resources For more information on Standard Reporting, refer to online Help and the following two courses: Payroll for ADP Workforce Now and Maintaining Employee Information for ADP Workforce Now. 2015 ADP, LLC 1-5 W8004_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

MODULE 1: EXPLORING CUSTOM REPORTS Demonstration: Running a Sample Report We will now demonstrate the process of using sample reports. Scenario Your company likes to recognize employees' anniversaries with the company. ADP provides an Anniversary sample report for your use. Activity: Running a Sample Report Starting Point: Reports > Custom Reports > Sample Reports Step Action 1 In the row for the desired sample report, click the Action icon and select Run. 2 On the Run Report page, set any desired parameters for format, notifications, etc. Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk.

MODULE 1: EXPLORING CUSTOM REPORTS Unmatched Records When you select fields from multiple files to create a custom report, the Unmatched Records window is displayed. Matched records mean that data exists for the employee in each of the files selected. Unmatched means that data does not have to exist in each file for the employee's record to display in your report. Your selection in this window determines the number of records that are displayed in your report. IF you choose: Include the employee in the report only if information exists in at least one of the fields in each of the files. THEN: The employee must have data in each of the files you have selected to include in your report. If the employee has data in one file but not another, the employee will not be included in your report. Therefore, in this example, Michael and Betty do not display. Example: Include the employee in the report even if information is not available in one or more of the fields in each of the files. Missing information will appear as blanks in the report. An employee will be included in your report regardless of whether the employee has data in every file included in your report. In this example, neither Michael nor Betty has data in the file containing the Pay Period and Pay Amount fields. Example: 2015 ADP, LLC 1-7 W8004_ILT_WFN80V01_0415

Without planning, you may need to update and edit your report numerous times to achieve the desired results. Guidelines Some common questions to ask during custom report planning include: Which fields should I include? Will I need to include any calculations, such as totals? Do I need to filter the results? What filter will I need? What do I plan to do with the output? (For example, do I want to print it for a quick reference, send it to others as an email attachment, or manipulate the data?) Which output format meets my needs? 2015 ADP, LLC 2-2 W8004_ILT_ WFN80V01_0415

MODULE 2: PLANNING AND CREATING CUSTOM REPORTS Effective-Dated Fields A file with an asterisk in its name includes fields that are effective-dated, such as annual salary. Effective-dated fields contain information that goes into effect as of a particular date. When entering a new value in an effective-dated field, the value being replaced is saved as part of a historical record. When running a report that includes an effective-dated field, you will be asked for the effective date of the data. The following runtime options may be available to you in Step 7 of the Report wizard: Effective as of a given date Effective between two dates Effective as of a payroll cycle Using these runtime options, you can choose to include past, current, or future data on your report, as shown in the following graphic: Some effective dated fields are only available if Effective dating is turned on for your company.
