An integral part of PHR is the Warehouse on the Web (WOW) reporting mechanism. Setting up
employees for HR and payroll involves inputting transactions into the web-based PHR application
screens and managing those transactions via web-based reporting. The PHR WOW reporting
structure provides information on employee demographics, appointments, time/leave, pay and
security. Reports fall into two categories: (1) reports for maintaining and processing PHR
transactions and (2) reports for general information purposes only.
There is a link on the PHR main "splash" web page called WOW Reporting
. WOW Reporting takes
you to the PHR Report Tree which is an outline of all of the currently available and soon to be
released PHR reports. This is a visual representation only.
Scroll to the bottom of this PHR Report Tree and click on the Link to WOW Front Page. Click the
WOW Login button. After logging into WOW (with a unique WOW username and password), select
the PHR Queries & Reports folder which will be displayed in a Brio Reports window. This will display
a list of all of the currently available reports. Click on the desired report. Remember each time you
"open" a report it launches a new browser window (Netscape or Internet Explorer). It is recommended
that you close this window prior to opening a 2nd or 3rd report.
