The information on this page applies to all users who have access to the Budgets and Forecasts module.

If someone in your organization adds a Headcount driver, you will see two additional tabs in the budget workbook.

To protect the privacy of your organization’s employee data, what you can see and do with the Headcount driver data depends your access to the budget workbook and if you are a Headcount driver user (contributor) or administrator.

View and use headcount output

All users who have access to the Budgeting and Forecasting module can view the output of the Headcount driver in two places in the budget workbook. However, what you can see specifically depends on your general access. The headcount output information is for reference purposes only; you cannot edit it. You can use refer to the headcount data in formulas in any of the other tabs. The formula references are relative, so the system automatically calculates the budget values according to the individual head values.

  • Headcount Output tab - View a breakdown of your organization’s employees by FTE and headcount by month. The headcount output information can be very useful when budgeting costs that vary depending on the number of FTEs or heads you have. For example, if you are budgeting external course costs, you could have a figure multiplied by the headcount for each region.

  • Main tab - View the automatically-driven budget values for the General Ledger account codes that are mapped to the Headcount driver. Either expand the applicable category or search for a specific General Ledger account line to confirm it is being driven - the “Driven” message displays in the Workflow column.

Contribute to headcount input

The Headcount Input tab has restricted access, so a lock icon (blue star) displays next to the tab name. If you are invited to use this tab, you need to create a password before you can access the data.

It is important to use a password that you will remember, as it cannot be recovered or reset if you forget it. In the event you forget your password, you will be locked out of the driver tab and unable to access your headcount data.
