Resource Output
Shows how many pieces each worker made of one item over a period, taken from the per-worker split entered when a piece-rated shift is closed. Use it to check output before paying piece rates.
Quick look
- Go to Reports › Production Reports and click the Resource Output card.
- Click the filter button and choose an Item. The list opens on the items made most recently; type 3 letters to search.
- The Date Range opens on last month. Change it if you want.
- Click Run Report.
Done. You see one row per worker with the pieces made and a total.
Full guide
What it shows, and when to use it
One row per worker, with the pieces they made of the chosen item, from the split entered when a piece-rated shift is closed. Output on stages with no such split, such as hourly stages and machines, is not here: Production Plan vs Actual shows the item's whole output. Rates and earnings are never shown.
Filters and date range
Fields in this section
| Field | Required | What to enter |
|---|---|---|
| Reports | No | Switch to another Production report. |
| Date Range | No | The posting dates to cover. Opens on last month. Shortcuts: This month, Last month, This quarter and Last quarter, using your fiscal year. Up to 366 days. |
| Item | Yes | The item to report on. Opens on the 10 most recently made items; type at least 3 characters to search up to 25 matches by code or name. |
| Resource | No | One worker. The list comes from past splits, so people who have left can still be picked. |
| Skill | No | Workers who hold this skill today. |
| Shift | No | The shift recorded on each posting. |
Until you choose an Item the report asks you to: "Please select item to show the report — choose it under Filters, then press Run Report." If no piece-rate output has been recorded in the business unit yet, it says so and explains that piece rates are set on the template stage and the split is entered when a shift is closed.
Columns
Fields in this section
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Resource | The worker's code and name. |
| Output | The pieces made, with the unit. |
Output for one worker and unit is added over every posting in the period. Rows come sorted by unit, then highest output first. A Total line under the rows adds output per unit, and shows one total for each unit if the item was made in more than one. If any pieces of the item were rejected in the period, a Rejected figure and the top three reasons follow it.
Sorting is not available. The pager at the bottom has Go to page and Items per page.
Drill-down
None. A row cannot be opened.
Export, print, PDF and email
Click the green spreadsheet icon above the table (it appears once there are rows) to download an Excel file (.xlsx). It starts with the filter tags, then Resource, Output and Unit for every row, not only the page you are on, and ends with a Total row for each unit.
Print, PDF and email are not available on this report.
Who can see it
Open the report with View on Production Reports. Without it the report list shows a No Access page. The item, resource, skill and shift lists come with the report, so you need no access to Items or Resources to use them. Production Reports has only View and Add/Edit, and a report changes no record, so Add/Edit makes no difference here. A role limited to its own records still sees the whole business unit.
On mobile
Not available yet. The card is listed under Reports, Production Reports in the mobile app, but it opens with no data. Use the web app. Everything else in Production Reports works on iPhone and Android.
The Android app is on Google Play. The iPhone app is coming soon to the App Store.
Problems and fixes
The report asks me to select an item
Item is required. Open the filters, choose an item and click Run Report. If the list is empty, no piece-rated output has been recorded yet.
"No piece output was recorded for this item in this period"
Try a wider period, or clear the Resource, Skill or Shift filter. Only the per-worker split of piece-rated postings counts, so output from hourly stages and machines is never here.
The Rejected figure is larger than the workers' output suggests
Rejected covers the whole item and shift in the period. It does not follow the Resource or Skill filter.
The report says the period has more than 5,000 piece-rated postings
Narrow the Date Range.
The report page says No Access
Your role does not have View on Production Reports. Ask an administrator to turn it on.
