Updated in September- 2024 | Subscribe to watch greytHR how-to video

A query builder is a tool that is designed to generate customized reports with all the data derived from the greytHR application. You can flexibly generate any number of reports with the tool. You can also view the previously built reports that you saved in the past.

The Query Builder page in the greytHR Admin portal allows you as an admin to generate a customized report with both regular and split shift details. The split shift report provides session-wise attendance details and the regular shift report generates day-wise details.

To view the Query Builder page, navigate to Reports > Query Builder.
