Hello everyone, recently we helped a client work through an issue with a PowerBI Dashboard. Scenario: Client set up a Ways of Working Assessment dashboard and the number of measured employees was much less than what they expected to see (couple hundred less than expected). They were confused as to why that would be the case. We ran some troubleshooting tests to figure it out and determined there were two factors that caused the difference in numbers from expected to actual. Definition of Measured Employees from the dashboard: Number of employees who sent at least 1 IM or 1 email in a work week during the current period. IsLikelyKnowledgeWorker Filter applied: this filter is turned on by default when you open the Dashboard and it excludes employees who spent a weekly average of less than five hours in meetings, email, instant messages, and calls because they are likely non-knowledge workers or they do not use Outlook or Teams. When you first open a Ways of Working Assessment dashboard filters are automatically applied. The goal of these filters is to remove employees who have low collaboration from the dataset, they can easily be turned off. If you run into this scenario in the future and don't understand why the numbers are off, please check the filters in the PowerBI dashboard for the IsLikelyKnowledgeWorker filter and also consider that the definition of Measured Employees may also be removing employees from your chosen dataset. If you would like to remove the filter please click the eraser icon to clear the filter. Your data will update and you may see a new value populate for measured employees.
