High-level overview

Workforce Performance is a web application that uses IBM Cognos Analytics to provide enterprise reporting capabilities for Infor Workforce Management. It enables users to view, run, or schedule built-in reports or custom reports.

Workforce Performance reports are based on the Infor Workforce Management metadata model. The metadata model presents data from the application database in a business format that is easier for report authors and business users to understand. The metadata model includes multiple packages that are deployed to the Cognos server to enable access by report authors.

See Metadata model.

Report authors can use the Cognos Analytics - Reporting tool to create custom reports or use the Query Studio to perform ad-hoc queries of application data. Custom reports can be integrated with the Infor Workforce Management application, so other application users can view or execute the reports.
