Building Reports with the Form Builder

You can use the Form Builder to build custom reports.

Note:  While the Form Builder is the preferred method of building forms within WFM, a new tool has been introduced in WFM 5.0 for building reports. The Workforce Performance tool is more powerful than the Form Builder for report-building purposes. If you have a license for the Workforce Performance tool, then use Workforce Performance. This tool is preferred for builder reports. See the Workforce Performance Implementation and Administration Guide.

With the Form Builder, you can create reports in HTML and PDF formats, allowing the user to select their preferable format to render the report. Examples of reports you can create include Employee Birthday, Employee Time Code, and Team Overtime. This section outlines features and processes that are specific to creating reports in the Form Builder. The general processes for creating a form or report and adding various controls to the form or report, are described earlier in this chapter.

Note:  If you are not using the most recent versions of Internet Explorer or Netscape, you may need to download an Adobe plug-in to view PDF reports.
