Preset Reports

A Preset Report is a consolidation of insights. You can set up email notifications to receive up-to-date insights once data is refreshed. Then, share those insights with your colleagues and stakeholders so that everyone is aligned.

These are some processes where Preset Reports are very useful:

  • Weekly Standups—To discuss what's happened in the past week, and areas to focus on and work on.

  • Monthly Management Meetings—To identify action items and decisions for management to make.

  • Ad hoc Requests—Businesses have specific questions on areas they want insights on.

  • Coaching—Specific performance of individuals to be used in 1:1s.

To create best-in-class Preset Reports, have an idea of what process you're using the Preset Report for and some idea of measures (for example, Revenue, Number of Clients, Number of Claims, or Expenses) you're focusing on.

Questions To Ask Yourself When Creating a Preset Report

  • What kind of measures do I need for continuous monitoring to validate a hypothesis? For example, I need to monitor my team's performance to find coaching opportunities. Or, there has been a decline in sales for a specific product. What's happening there?

  • Is there a reporting cadence I need to set up for my Preset Reports? For example, I have a weekly meeting with my team or a monthly management review to prepare in advance.

  • Who is my target audience for this Preset Report? It's only for me to monitor any outliers and anomalies. Or, it's for my stakeholders for their weekly meetings and monthly presentations.

Criar relatórios predefinidos

Você pode criar relatórios predefinidos manualmente ou usando um modelo.

  1. Para criar um relatório predefinido, na página inicial do Auto Insights, selecione Criar novo e, em seguida, selecione Relatório predefinido.

  2. Selecione uma das opções de modelo: Visão geral das principais métricas, Relatório de aprofundamento de KPI, Relatório de análise de correlação ou Criar tela em branco.

    1. Aprofundamento do KPI: confirme ou selecione seu conjunto de dados e selecione uma medida. Em seguida, selecione Criar relatório predefinido. O Auto Insights nomeia seu novo relatório predefinido com o carimbo de data e hora. Você pode alterá-lo na página "Resumo de relatório predefinido".

    2. Visão geral das principais métricas: confirme ou selecione seu conjunto de dados e clique em Criar relatório predefinido. O Auto Insights nomeia seu novo relatório predefinido com o carimbo de data e hora. Você pode alterá-lo na página "Resumo de relatório predefinido".

    3. Análise de correlação: confirme ou selecione seus conjuntos de dados e selecione suas duas medidas. Em seguida, selecione Criar relatório predefinido. O Auto Insights nomeia seu novo relatório predefinido com o carimbo de data e hora. Você pode alterá-lo na página "Resumo de relatório predefinido".

      Nota

      A análise de correlação não funciona se você usar um conjunto de dados sem dados de série temporal.

    4. Para criar seu relatório predefinido começando do zero, selecione Criar tela em branco, configure uma ou mais medidas selecionando o tipo de cálculo apropriado (soma, média ou contagem) nas colunas disponíveis, ou use o menu suspenso "Média por" para selecionar uma média complexa. Em seguida, selecione Criar relatório predefinido.

  3. Depois de selecionar Criar relatório predefinido, você verá a página "Resumo de relatório predefinido", onde poderá ver todos os seus insights. Saiba mais sobre como editar seu relatório predefinido na página Edit Preset Reports. Observe que a análise de alteração não estará disponível se você usar um conjunto de dados sem dados de série temporal.

Preset Report Summary

Upon creating a Preset Report, you land on the summary page. This page is auto-created and overviews all the pages within a single Preset Report. As you build your Preset Report pages, more tiles (sections) display on the summary page. When you set a subscription schedule, Auto Insights sends this summary page to your email.

Dica

Use the Jump-to-Page dropdown at the center of the navigation bar to quickly switch between pages of your Preset Report.

Expand and Collapse Your View

By default, your Preset Report Summary page shows sections expanded. To quickly scan the summary and decide if you want to explore specific sections in detail, switch to a collapsed view. To do so, select Expanded > Collapse all pages in the top navigation bar.

Nota

This does not change the format of your subscription email. It still displays as expanded.

Totals vs Change

Whenever we interact with data, there are 2 main types of analysis that we want to uncover—we want to understand the changes compared to the previous period and know within that period what's contributing to the numbers.

Total

Select the How was the total distributed? tab to have Auto Insights focus on just proportion and disregard insights related to change over time.

Total distributed tab

You can further customize this type of insight by removing the time comparison period or selecting All of time.

All of time

Change

Select the What key changes occurred? tab to have Auto Insights explain the changes that happened. Note: The changes tab is unavailable if you use a dataset without time series data.

Changes occurred tab

Change the Time Comparison Period

Change the time period comparison, and add filters or breakdowns to curate Auto Insights' analysis further. You can change the comparison period to compare against the previous month or the same month last year. Refer to this article on Time Period comparison for details.

Totals Tables

Use Total Tables to provide more context for the Totals you see on your Preset Report page.

To view totals tables on your Preset Report page:

  1. Go to the Auto Insights Home page.

  2. Select the Preset Report you want to update.

  3. From the Preset Report's Summary Page, select Edit.

  4. Select a page to edit.

  5. Select How was the total distributed?

    Total distributed tab
  6. Make sure you've selected a breakdown (segment), or select + Add Breakdown now.

  7. Now a Show data table check box displays. Check the box to display a table nested under its respective page.

    Show data table check box

Query Bar

Each page has a query bar that provides the focus of analysis for that specific page. Use this query bar to get Auto Insights to search for insights on a specific area. Add another query bar to analyze the relationship between 2 different metrics. Learn more about the query bar in the Edit Missions article.

Nota

Time period selection is unavailable if you use a dataset without time series data.

Some Considerations for Interacting with the Query Bar

  • Do I want Auto Insights to tell me where to focus? For example, I'm not sure which segment I should break down by. Things constantly change each month.

If this is what you need each month, let Auto Insights do the work and identify the most significant contributing factors that cause the change. You should leave the filter and breakdown blank in this scenario. This way, Auto Insights calculates the most significant contributing factors and displays them in descending order.

OR

  • I know that I need to focus on a specific area. For example:

    • I need to only look at my team's performance. I'm not interested in other teams.

    • I need to only focus on my product. I'm not interested in other products.

In this scenario, you should add filters to your query—for example, Team 6.

OR

  • I know that I want to compare across a segment (dimension).

    • I need to understand movement across all teams.

    • I need to know how my product is performing against other products.

In this scenario, you should add breakdowns to your query—for example, Team.
