Example and troubleshooting
Compare the current version with the previous version and inspect employee, gross, deduction and net variances. If no rows appear, check the date range and scope, then confirm report access. Choose Report office, Team and Employee separately; clear a filter or widen the dates if a valid selection has no records.
Results and limits
Review the summary above the sortable result table and any available charts. Dates are inclusive in the viewer timezone; From must not follow To, and the range cannot exceed two years. If more than 2,000 results match, narrow the range or scope. Export CSV uses the selected scope and requires download permission.
