# How to Read a Report in Enate

### **Tooltips on every visual** 

Hovering over any bar, line, slice or KPI shows a tooltip: a small pop-up box that appears next to the cursor and explains exactly what you're looking at. It gives the precise figure behind the point you're hovering on plus its supporting detail.

### **Drill-through on every visual**&#x20;

Every chart and visual in this report supports drill-through. Right-click (or use the drill controls in the visual header) to move between month, week and day on time-based charts, to drill into a category, or to open "See Records" / the underlying data as a table and export it to Excel.

You can easily navigate back up from tables showing the underlying data:

### **Drill down and Drill Up**

Hovering over a visual will usually bring up a 'Drill down' option in the tooltip.

Click to drill in to view the next level visual for this data. Data in the other cards will filtering their display accordingly. Hover again for tooltip and click the 'Drill up' option to return to the original visual display level.&#x20;

### **Filters**&#x20;

**Main Filter -** use the filter bar at the top left of the report to focus the report by customer, contact, process (Case/Ticket/Action), queue or work state.&#x20;

To clear everything, open the main filter display and use Clear Filters.

**Click Segment to Filter**

Clicking on a segment within a card will filter down data in all of the other cards. The selected segment will highlight.

De-select the segment to unfilter your data.

#### **Dates are UTC**&#x20;

All report dates use the UTC time zone.&#x20;

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important Note:** Report data isn't real-time; it refreshes on a schedule and the last-updated time stamp is shown on the report.
{% endhint %}

#### **Closed vs Open history**&#x20;

Closed work items are shown for the past year; open/running items show their full history even if that's longer than a year.<br>

### Understanding the KPI trend indicators ▲▼

Most KPI cards show a small trend badge - an up arrow (▲) or a down arrow (▼) - comparing the current period to the one immediately before it. The comparison window always matches the length of your selected date range: filter to the last 30 days and the badge compares against the previous 30 days.

An up arrow means the metric has gone up versus the prior period and a down arrow means it has gone down. Whether that's good or bad depends on the metric. For SLA Compliance, % Utilisation or Work Items Closed, up is good. For Work Items Overdue, Defects, Reopens or Avg TAT, *down* is the improvement. Work Items On Target follows the same rule - more on-target work is better, so up is good.

The badge is **colour-coded by whether the movement is good or bad, not by its direction**: green when the metric moved in a desired direction (whether that's up or down for that metric), red when it moved in the undesirable direction, and grey when there's no change or no comparable prior period (shown as "— No Change" or "--"). So a green <mark style="color:$success;">▼</mark> on Overdue and a green <mark style="color:$success;">▲</mark> on SLA both mean "good".

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.enate.net/enate-help/work-manager/work-manager-2021.1/reports/how-to-read-a-report-in-enate.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
