Create custom reports using Query Builder

The Query Builder page in the greytHR Admin portal enables you to build customized reports. You can create improvised and user-defined reports using this feature. It helps you to retrieve any data stored in the application. The Query Builder page displays lists of the reports that you have created and saved in the past. If a report is available for all users, it reflects as Public on the list of report cards. 

You can create reports using various data points available in the application. There can be instances where a report of your choice may not be available in a single file due to the selected data points. We highly recommend you create multiple reports in such cases and manually combine them to get the report. 

To view the Query Builder page, click Reports > Query Builder.
