Length Of Service /Age Story Reports

[former_member543465]

Story Reports are being the frequent word hearing from the SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite.

The Story type of report in Report Centre is part of the People Analytics solution, and it's based on the integration of SAP SuccessFactors HXM Suite with SAP Analytics Cloud. After you create a story, you can add and edit pages, sections, and elements. You can share your story with others to enable them to use the report you've created. It is a presentation-style report that uses charts, visualizations, text, images, and pictograms to describe data. A story mainly involves building a query, and using the query to create the report.

This blog is going to take you through the complete story report creation.
