5. Select the applicable report parameters:

   • By default, the Reference Date is set to yesterday's date (today —1).

     • This date changes daily. So, the Reference Date is always the day before the day of the report run.

       Examples:

       You manually run a report on Tuesday, November 3; the Reference Date is Monday, November 2.

       A scheduled report runs on Tuesday, November 10; the Reference Date is Monday, November 9.

       A recurring scheduled report runs every Tuesday; the Reference Date is the Monday before each run.

     • You can select a different Reference Date for this run of the report.

       Caution: If you change the default Reference Date for a recurring scheduled report, that date becomes fixed for subsequent runs. As a result, the subsequent reports do not show updated data. See the Schedule and Manage Report Jobs topic.

     • To configure a different offset from today's date, you can change the site.healthcareanalytics.referencedate.offset system setting; see the Healthcare Analytics System Settings topic.

   • Work Unit Work units (WU) define departments, work groups, and combine business structure nodes or jobs into single entities for productivity analysis. All Healthcare Productivity reports require work units. Hyperfind A search engine that filters and selects groups of employees through queries that specify conditions or locations (criteria).: Select one of the following hyperfind queries that contains the appropriate work unit:

     Caution: If the report will be in Excel format, make sure that the report contains no more than 90 work units because spreadsheets cannot contain more worksheets (tabs), and each work unit occupies one worksheet.

     • All My Department Work Units: Show all Department-type work units in the organizational sets that you can access in the business structure.

       Example: If you can access 100 departments, and each department has a corresponding work unit, this hyperfind returns 100 department-type work units.

     • All My Work Units: Show all work units, regardless of location type, in the organizational sets that you can access in the business structure.

       Caution: This hyperfind returns work units of different types that are excluded from reports; the Healthcare Productivity reports show department types only.

       Example: If you can access 2 out of 5 facilities, this hyperfind returns only those 2 facility work units plus all department and work group work units that are in those facilities.

     • Work unit hyperfinds: Select one of the custom hyperfinds.
     • Single Work Unit: Select one work unit.

   • Work Unit: (Available only if you select Single Work Unit in Work Unit Hyperfind) Select the work unit. The list shows only work units that you can access.

   • Target: Select the target to use in the calculations:
     • Default (default)
     • Alternate

      The table lists productive hours targets, productivity index, and actual hours worked for each work unit for each of six pay periods. The table also summarizes information for the six pay periods and the year-to-date which includes data from the start of the fiscal year including the most recent six pay periods.

      A line graph displays the actual productive hours and the target productive hours compared to the weighted volume for the work unit for each of the six pay periods.

      Estimated Cost is the Productive Variance multiplied by the Average Hourly Rate.
