Custom Tabulation Advanced Settings
What Are Custom Tabulation Advanced Settings?
Custom Tabulation Advanced Settings are a feature that enables you to aggregate results by combining or intersecting multiple departments and attribute items. In these advanced settings, you can select individual departments and attributes to compile results for detailed analysis.
For example, combinations such as "Sales Department + Marketing Department" × "General Employees" × "5–10 Years of Service" can be analyzed in greater depth. Items created in Advanced Settings can be assigned to Action Plan Owners and linked to Improvement Items, just like standard department and attribute items.
For other important notes and technical specifications, please refer to Notes on Custom Tabulation Advanced Settings.
