Run COVID-19 Reports

Role feature access: Report Library > COVID-19

To run a COVID-19 report:

1. Select the report that you want to run. How you do this depends on where in Dayforce you’re running the report:
   • In Global Search, click the report name in the search results to open the report card.
   • In Reporting and Analytics > Reporting > Reports, select the report in the report library list under the COVID-19 category.
2. Click Run. Dayforce shows the run report dialog box.
3. Enter a date in the As of Date field to define what data is included in the report.
4. Configure the following settings in the Output Options section:
   • Report Header Display Name: (Optional) Enter an alternate title to show in the report header instead of the report name.
   • Include filter criteria: Select to include the filter values that you specify when you run the report in the report header.
   • Only include unique records: Select to include only distinct records in the report output.
   • Note: Dayforce clears this option if you enabled it and then adds totals on the report. This option can't be used together with totals because all records (not just unique ones) must be included to generate an accurate total. Consider an example with a SUM function where there are three records that all have the value of 40. With Only include unique records selected, only one of these records would be included in the sum and the total would be 40. With the checkbox cleared, the total is correct at 120.
   • Max Number of Records: Enter a number in this field to limit the number of rows that are included in the report. You can include a maximum of 900,000 rows in a report.
   • Output Format: Select the file format that you require for the report output.
5. Configure the following settings in the Page Format Options section:
   • Excel Format (These settings are enabled if you select an Excel format option in the Output Format drop-down list):
     • Suppress formatting in Excel output: Select this checkbox and Dayforce removes all formatting from the report output, including headers, grouping information, and totals.
     • Suppress formatting - Include Totals in Output: Select this checkbox and Dayforce removes all formatting in the output, but it still shows totals.
   • PDF Format (These settings are enabled if you select PDF for the output format):
     • Orientation: Specify whether the PDF output uses landscape or portrait orientation. Dayforce fits PDF report output to one horizontal page, so landscape can be the better option for reports with many columns.
     • Paper Size: Select a paper size in the drop-down list.
     • Repeat column headers on each page: Select this checkbox and Dayforce includes the column headers on each page of the PDF output. By default, this checkbox is cleared, and the headers appear just once at the top of the report.
6. Click Run Report. Dayforce generates the report according to the options you selected and delivers it to your Message Center inbox.
