The Home - My Team tab provides real-time visibility into team performance, allowing practices to make data-driven decisions without the need to generate and export reports.

Key metrics are displayed for each employee, including Actual Hours, Expected Hours, and productivity percentages. Practices will be able to quickly identify variances, address bottlenecks, and follow up with staff to ensure time is recorded accurately. Using the "Missing Time" view, practices can also implement an automation process to automatically remind staff to enter their missing time.

Before using Team Productivity, the Productivity Target % and Expected Working Hours should be updated in the User Profile for each user.

Accessing Team Productivity

The Home - My Team tab is only available for FYI Admins or users in a User Group with permissions enabled for either:

Employees - Access
Employees - Management

To open Team Productivity, click the Home menu and select the My Team tab.

Displaying Employees

For an employee to be displayed in the Team Productivity list:

The current user logged into FYI must belong to a User Group with access to Employees.
Users must have had at least one time entry created in FYI for any period. Users without any time entries will not be displayed.
Inactive users will be displayed if the selected date range includes a period when they were active. For example, if an employee was made inactive on 2 May and the date filter is set to Today (3 May), they will not appear in the list. However, if the filter is set to Last Month (covering April), the employee will be displayed.

My Team Tab Layout

The My Team list initially displays all active employees the user has access to.

For FYI Admins, or users in a User Group with Employees - Management permission, click the Show My Team button to filter the list to only employees where you are listed as the Partner or Manager in the Employee Workspace.

The My Team list can be grouped by Partner, Manager, or User Role. The Group column will display the relevant group name. For example, when grouped by Manager, the user's name will be displayed in the Group column. Click on the Group Name to expand and collapse the section.

My Team Functions

Toolbar

The toolbar is displayed at the top of the My Team list. You can also right-click on the columns in the list to display a pop-up menu.

Columns

My Team List

Function	Details
Columns Tab	Displayed on the left-hand side of the list. Click the Columns tab to expand the tab. Columns that are saved in the current view are displayed in alphabetical order and with a Green tick. Additional columns that can be included in the list are displayed as unchecked. Tip: The width of this section can be dragged left or right.
Filters Tab	Displayed on the left-hand side of the list. Click the Filter tab to expand the tab. Click and expand the column you want to apply the filter to. The filter icon displays next to any columns that currently have a filter.
Partner/Manager	Displays the name of the Partner or Manager assigned to the user in the Employee Workspace.
User Role	The User Role, as configured in the User Profile.
Target Productivity	The percentage of the expected working hours of the employee's total Working Hours, as configured in the User Profile.
Actual Hours	The total time entered by the employee for the selected period, excluding drafts.
Expected Hours	The total hours an employee is expected to work during the selected time period, as configured in the User Profile. If This Week or This Month is selected, the time will be calculated up to the current date. For example, if the expected hours for an employee are 37.5 per week, and you are viewing the List on a Tuesday, the Expected Hours would display 15.
Missing Hours	The difference between the Actual Hours and the Expected Hours. Where a difference is calculated, the value will be displayed in red. Missing hours are calculated as a negative numeric value and displayed in an hh:mm format. For example, if an employee was missing 2 hours and 30mins, the value of -2.5 will be displayed as 02:30 (-) on the My Team list. When filtering the Missing Hours column, enter a numeric value. For example: To filter to only employees with missing time, the filter should be set to "Less than 0". To view where employees are missing 2 hours or less, the filter should be set to "Greater than -2". To view where employees are missing 2 hours or more, the filter should be set to "Less than -2". Where an employee has worked more than their expected hours, the Missing Hours column will display 00:00.
Draft Hours	The total hours for Draft time entries not yet submitted for the selected time period.
Actual Productivity	The percentage of Chargeable time for the selected time period. The Actual Productivity value is calculated by dividing the Chargeable Hours value by the total of Expected Hours minus Capacity-Reducing time. For example, where an employee was expected to work 8 hours but worked 8.5hrs, and 0.5hrs of that time was capacity-reducing, the Actual Productivity value would be calculated at 8 divided by 8, equalling 100%.
Productivity Variance	The difference between the Target Productivity and the Actual Productivity. Negative values are displayed in red, positive values are displayed in green. Where an employee’s recorded hours consist solely of capacity-reducing time, such as a period of annual leave, the Productivity Variance will be displayed as “-%”.
