The text metrics on the dashboard which the user sees once logged in shows vital information about the workforce, it employs a visual colour scheme known as the RAG system (Red, Amber, Green). This system makes it easy for the user to determine if a metric requires attention or not. Below is a description of the RAG system
- Green: This means the metric is normal and no action is required
- Amber: The metric should be watched as it has deviated from normal conditions
- Red: This metric requires attention and should be considered
The system operates the RAG system based on defaults set. However, some organisations may want different thresholds for each of the RAG categories, this screen allows a user to set such thresholds to meet their organisational needs
The thresholds can be set using the information below
- Red When < : The relevant metric will be red when its value is less than this figure
- Amber When >= : This figure is the lower threshold for the Amber colour and it is automatically set
- But <: The relevant metric will be amber when its value is less than this figure
- Green When < : The relevant metric will be green when its value is less than this figure
Note: Only two colours can have thresholds set for each metric, the threshold for the third colour is automatically determined by the system based on the two thresholds set by the user.
Location Exclusion
This setting allows you to select one or more locations which will be excluded when the system calculates headcount, turnover rates, leavers and joiners. It also affects the following metrics on the dashboard; Total Employees, Unconfirmed Employees, Staff Turnover and 1st year leavers.
The setting has the following options
- None: This excludes not location
- Selected: Excludes the selected locations
