The UKG Pro Learning solution provides you with a powerful reporting tool, giving you the ability to track academy members' progress in a number of ways.
Members with Admin rights or Managers with Reporting permissions are able to create customized reports and then export them as CSV files. Moreover, they can create report templates that will be available to anyone who has reporting permissions. Last but not least, they have the option to schedule the reports to be automatically delivered to either themselves or to others within the organization based on the academy's org structure. The Report Builder provides very detailed data about your members' training performance, based on the specific parameters you set up.
Navigation: Admin > Reporting > Report Builder > Create New Report
There are Public and Private Reports.
- Private reports are viewable only to the individual who created them. They are either simply marked as “Private” or include specific organizational elements the report is tracking since not everyone has the same access.
- Public reports are those that are accessible to anyone who is able to run reports. Reports cannot be saved as public if an organizational element is selected. Think of public reports as baseline templates. Organizational elements can be added before running the public report.
- Scheduled reports are those that will run consistently at set times.
Reports can be edited or deleted only by the individual who originally created the report. Reports can also be downloaded and copied. Reports can also be organized into sections.

Sections
You can create Sections to Categorize your Saved Reports. To create a section select Add Section, add a section name, and click Save. Then you will be able to categorize each saved report individually, to your preferred section.
Report Options
In the Report Options, you have the option to select if your report will include data from all of the academy's events, courses, and curricula, or from specific ones. You can select to include "All items", select all and deselect some of them, or select specific ones. Just click on the "All Items" checkbox to find the three different selections.
A dropdown with all time zones is available where you can select in which timezone you want the date/time fields to be displayed in your report. You also have the option to select if your report should include both Employees and External Members, or only Employees/External Members. Last but not least, you can select if you want to populate the report for Active or Past Employees.
Schedule Report
You have the option to create scheduled reports for you or other members within your organization. You can now set up the needed parameters, based on your needs.
Fields
Every type of report has some predefined fields. You can now edit these fields, add or delete some of them, and change their order (with a simple drag and drop), creating the report that perfectly meets your needs. The order of your fields also defines the order of the columns in your report.
Combining Structure
You can create reports using multiple filters, for example taking into account two types of above units. On the top of the page, select the Above Unit and the Unit for which you wish to create a report.
To use multiple filters, select the + icon on the filters.
Select the extra Above Unit and Unit you wish to take into account for the report.
- 1 OR 2: to include the users that are either in the first or in the second org node
- 1 AND 2: to include the users that are in both org nodes 1 and 2.
- 1 NOT 2: to include the users that are in the first org node but are not in the second one.
Access Reports
Reports will be saved in the Report Builder tab. If the report is a public one, it will be available also to Managers with the Reporting permission enabled. If the report has been scheduled to be sent to others within the academy, it will be displayed under the Scheduled Report for others tab.
