See the exceptions.
Keep the work in view.

A useful report starts
with a clear question.

1. 01

   Start with the records

   Use authorized service or operational data, with clear status and date fields.

2. 02

   Highlight the next action

   Combine status charts, counts and a detail table. Define exception rules around your process.

3. 03

   Keep the evidence close

   Let readers inspect the supporting records rather than rely on an isolated headline measure.
