Hi @VI_Migration, do you have any idea of such a high number indicated in the 2nd chart (100 and 200) ? One person cannot work 100 and 200 hours a week...Does it have something to do with wrongly setting the work week span? Although, other reports seem fine when comes to the numbers in a week span.
