Understanding PeopleSoft Resource Management Reports

PeopleSoft Resource Management provides reports and interactive reports that are specifically designed to assist you in analyzing and managing resource competencies, scheduling, and overall utilization. The distinction between the two terms is:

• Reports are batch processes that are managed through the PeopleSoft Process Scheduler.

  PeopleSoft Process Scheduler enables you to schedule the processes, select different output formats, and distribute the reports to other users.

• Interactive reports enable a user to quickly spot historical or future trends in resource data in a list or chart format.

  PeopleSoft Resource Management interactive reports provide information that is immediately visible on the application page—without the need for sending a process request to the Process Scheduler.
