Welcome to the Timesheet Reporting. It mainly provides provides all the information resource managers, line managers, and the PMO need to effectively negotiate and manage the organisation’s resources across all your execution tools. 

Having this information readily available will help you balance resources across multiple initiatives and support improved project planning.  Better planning will reduce the number of timeline related change requests and help the organisation build confidence in the PMO’s project management capabilities.


Important: If you are not familiar with Power BI, we recommend you review the Power BI Fundamentals lesson. It will provide you with a working knowledge of the Insights report.

Here is a summary on the purpose of each page, experience the various filtering options, and understanding of how to make this report work best for you.

• The resource insights report is comprised of nine (9) pages.  The first six (6) pages focus on resource management and the remaining three (3) pages focus on timesheet managers and timesheet data.
  

• Also, each page has an info icon in the header, so any time you need real-time help, click on it to open a pop-up info pane containing a basic description of the report page you are on.
  

• Timesheet Overview page focuses on monitoring and ensuring timesheet compliance across all resources that submit timesheets.  It can be used by Resource Managers to monitor their own teams, by Timesheet Managers, or the person in the organisation responsible for ensuring timesheet compliance for each period in alignment with your internal processes.
  
  
  Tip: Using the Timesheet status by period bar chart you can see the number of timesheets in the various statuses – not started, draft, submitted, approved, or rejected.  Then you can use the Timesheet Compliance by period chart to focus on specific resources and timesheet details.
  

As you can see, the Resources Insights report pulls all the data in Resources area together to support more timely project completion with effective resource management across the organisation.
