The Resource - Overview report provides you with a comprehensive and accurate understanding of resourcing and performance for both individual contributors and teams.

The metrics are curated specifically through the teammate and team lens, ensuring that only relevant data is considered.

The report can be accessed via the sidebar menu by navigating to Reports > Resources.

Finally, the report can be run over any date-range.


Key Metrics

At the top of the report, you'll find four primary metrics:

  1. Daily Output per FTE: The average output of Production Tasks per FTE per day expressed in hours.

  2. Total Available Hours: The total hours your team or team member worked over the selected date-range.

  3. Total Overtime Hours: Additional hours worked beyond standard hours.

  4. Total Temp Hours: Time worked by temporary team members.

Each metric is accompanied by a percentage indicating the change from the previous period. For instance, if you've run the report for Q2 these indicators will provide you with the variance when compared to Q1.

Workforce Efficiency

This funnel chart visualizes efficiency by breaking down your team's Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) status:

  1. Total FTE - the FTE assigned to your team

  2. Available FTE - the FTE assigned to your team excluding Leave, and adding Overtime

  3. FTE Utilized - the time spent working on Production Tasks (the gap between Available FTE and FTE Utilized is the time spent on Supporting Tasks

  4. FTE Output - the level of Output (Production Tasks) completed by your team.

This chart helps you understand how your total capacity translates into actual output.
