Time Reports
The Time Report feature in Time Cockpit provides a detailed summary of working time-related information for a specific user during a defined working period. This comprehensive report can be used for tracking and analyzing working hours, breaks, and other essential details.
The report is located at USERS --> WORKING TIME --> Time Report
Report Key Elements
User Information: The report begins with the user's name, allowing you to easily identify the individual to whom the report pertains.
Date: Each row represents a specific date within the working period.
Working Time: It shows the user's working hours for the corresponding date, including the start and end times.
Breaks: The sum of all breaks during the working time. That is all unbooked time.
Break Time: The report lists the breaks taken during the day, including the total break time for that date.
Home Office: In some cases, users may work from home. This field indicates whether the user worked from home on a particular date. The report always calculates the home office days since the beginning of the year. Additionally it gives you the number of home offices days for the selected period of time.
Remarks: Holds additional comments or notes about the work or any special circumstances, like vacations, compensatory times or sick leaves. It does not hold information about actual time sheet entries.
Summary Section: Towards the end of the report, a summary section displays essential information for the entire reporting period. This includes the total working hours, number of working days, and overtime (if applicable).
Overtime Column: The report gives you information about
- the overtime balance at the start of the period
- the planned hours of the user
- the actual working hours of the user
- the overtime in the selected period of time
- the included lump sum overtime per month
the acutal overtime that goes beyond the included lump sum overtime
Vacation Column: If the user has taken any vacation days during the reporting period, this section provides an overview of remaining and taken vacation days.
Home Office Column: This section provides information, if the user has any home office days in the current year or the selected period.
Signature: This area is intended for a digital signature or acknowledgment.

Note
Currently, this feature is designed to generate up to 20 employees per month per execution. This limitation is a result of constraints within the SSRS library, which does not support parallel execution. We are actively addressing this challenge and are committed to resolving it in a future release.
Users can conveniently generate time reports in PDF or Excel format for a specified time period. This feature is particularly useful for users who need to generate time reports for multiple individuals, especially at the end of the month.
