Who this guide is for: System administrators – Requires ‘System Admin’ role, System Setup permission and an Advanced Analytics licence
Overview:
This guide explains how to grant users access to Advanced Analytics—a paid add-on offering pre-built, interactive reports and dashboards.
How Advanced Analytics Works:
Advanced Analytics provides a suite of Report Packs containing configurable Visuals (numbers, charts, graphs) powered by your e-days data. Key features include:
Interactive Visuals: Click a data point (e.g. a month) to filter all visuals on the page.
Metrics: Flexible calculations (e.g. Total Days Off) that adapt to the context of filters and splits.
Filters: Linked selectors (date range, team, country) that shape all Report Packs without persisting between users.
Report Packs & Tabs: Each pack contains multiple reports navigated via tabs at the bottom.
Question & Answer Box: Ask plain-language questions (e.g. “What was the highest sickness reason in 2021?”) and receive instant visual or numeric answers.
How to Set Up Advanced Analytics for a User:
Go to Admin tools > Admin panel > Users > User Overview
Search for the user and click Edit.
Select the User Settings tab.
Scroll to Premium Reports.
Click Add and select the desired Report Pack(s) to grant access.
Click Save User at the top of the page.
When the user next logs in, they’ll see Advanced Analytics in place of their Manager Dashboard.
Additional Information:
Advanced Analytics is a paid feature—contact customersuccess@e-days.com to purchase or upgrade.
Premium Reports: Synonymous with Report Packs for Advanced Analytics.
Requires ‘System Admin’ role, System Setup permission, and an Advanced Analytics licence.
Warning: Users without at least one Report Pack will not see Advanced Analytics and will retain the standard Manager Dashboard.
Tip: Grant only the packs relevant to a user’s role (e.g. HR vs. Finance) to avoid clutter.
Use the search function within the platform to quickly find features or settings.
