Build any report you need
Custom report builder, advanced analytics, KPI dashboards, and scheduled deliveries. Pulls from every part of HeimdallHR so you can answer questions Core's canned reports can't.
Sound familiar?
Canned reports don't fit
The built-in headcount report has 3 columns. You need 8. You end up exporting raw data to Excel and rebuilding it manually.
Excel as the analytics layer
Every board meeting starts with someone wrangling exports in Excel. Versions diverge, numbers don't match, time is wasted.
No custom KPIs
Time-to-hire by department, attrition by tenure band, training-completion by team — you can't build the metrics that matter to your business.
Ad-hoc data requests
Leadership keeps emailing 'can you pull X?' Every request is a manual job. HR becomes a reporting bottleneck.
A real analytics layer for your HR data
Advanced Reporting layers a proper custom report builder, KPI dashboard editor, and scheduled-delivery engine on top of Core's headcount and turnover reports. Build any report you need, save it, share it, schedule it — without leaving HeimdallHR or exporting to Excel.
Everything you need
Custom report builder
Drag-and-drop columns, filters, group-bys. Build any report against any HeimdallHR data without writing SQL.
KPI dashboards
Build your own dashboards from custom widgets. Pin them to the home screen for specific roles or teams.
Advanced analytics
Year-over-year comparisons, cohort analysis, attrition forecasting, time-to-hire decomposition.
Scheduled delivery
Email any report on a schedule (daily, weekly, monthly). Send to a person, a list, or post to a Slack channel.
Role-based shares
Share specific reports with specific roles. Sales sees recruitment metrics, finance sees comp data — fine-grained.
Extended audit logs
Six months of audit logs in Core; this add-on retains them for 7 years and lets you query / report on access events.
How it works
Pick your data
Choose from any HeimdallHR data source: employees, leave, performance, comp, recruitment.
Build the report
Add columns, filters, groupings. Preview live as you go.
Save & share
Save with a name. Share with a person, team, or role. Pin to a dashboard.
Schedule
Optional: schedule recurring delivery to email or Slack.
The impact
Hours back per week
No more Excel wrangling for board reports. Build once, schedule, done.
HR off the critical path
Leadership self-serves the data they need. HR stops being a reporting bottleneck.
One source of truth
Everyone references the same numbers. No more 'which spreadsheet is right?' debates.
Audit-trail depth
7-year audit retention satisfies most regulated industry requirements out of the box.

Common questions
Do I need SQL to build reports?
No. The builder is fully visual — pick fields, add filters, group, sort. For power users, an SQL editor is available too with sandboxed read-only access.
Can I push data to PowerBI or Tableau?
Yes — combined with the API & Webhooks add-on, scheduled exports can push to S3/Azure Blob/Snowflake/etc, or you can query the API directly from your BI tool.
What's the difference between this and Core reporting?
Core has fixed dashboards and a handful of canned reports (headcount, turnover, absence). This add-on adds the custom report builder, the dashboard editor, cohort/forecast analytics, scheduled delivery, and 7-year audit retention.
Can reports be restricted to certain people?
Yes. Reports can be private, shared with named individuals, shared with a role, or shared organisation-wide. Field-level redactions apply (e.g. comp data hidden from non-finance roles).
