The path

  1. 01

    Shape the data

    Split the export into dimensions and facts and generate monthly headcount snapshots.

  2. 02

    Agree the definitions

    Fill in the KPI definition sheet before writing a single measure — this is what saves the project later.

  3. 03

    Write the core measures

    Headcount, FTE, turnover and absence, each with plan and prior-year comparison.

  4. 04

    Lay out the cockpit

    KPI header, drill paths, field parameters and conditional formatting on a single canvas.

  5. 05

    Protect and publish

    Minimum group size, row-level security by org unit, and a refresh and ownership plan.
