Two simple ways to stay up to date

Your data. Updated your way.

Start with the reports your team already uses. Choose the refresh option that fits how you work.

On your schedule

Upload one workbook

Bring your five reports together in one Excel workbook. Upload it whenever you want a fresh picture, review the checks and update your dashboards in one step.

  • One file, with five clearly defined worksheets
  • Refresh daily, weekly or whenever suits you
  • A ready-to-use template and clear HRIS instructions
Every 12 or 24 hours

Connect Workday. Stay updated.

We guide the setup with your HRIS team. They approve read-only access; PowerDash handles the mapping and validates the data with you. Once activated, your dashboards update automatically.

  • Scheduled updates without regular file uploads
  • See the last successful refresh and control the schedule
  • Approved integration access, with no personal Workday password
Start manually. Connect when you’re ready.

Both options feed the same dashboard suite. Keep uploading while we help set up your connection.

For teams who have the data, but not the picture.

Workday holds the answers. Getting them out usually means the same exports, the same pivot tables and the same questions from leadership every month.

PL

People leaders

You want a consistent story on hiring and departures for the exec team, without rebuilding it from scratch each time.

TA

Talent acquisition leaders

You need to see where requisitions are stalling, where approvals are waiting and how work is spread across recruiters.

IS

HRIS and reporting teams

You already produce the reports. You want them to land somewhere reusable, with definitions that stay transparent and a clear record of each refresh.

Live demo

Try the real product, as Aster Vale Group.

Below is the shipped PowerDash People Analytics workspace, live, for Aster Vale Group: a fictional international employer we created for this demo, with managers and hires across six countries, with retained reporting history to explore. Click anything. Filter, drill down, switch dashboards, choose a reporting period, ask a guided question and download an HTML snapshot. No login is needed and nothing here belongs to a customer.

Works best on a laptop or larger screen. On a phone, open the full demo in its own tab.

Six things to try

Filter and watch everything moveChoose a Country or Executive leader in the filter bar. Every card, chart and table on the page recalculates for that selection.
Drill into the detailClick a bar in a chart or the action on a metric card to land in Requisition Detail with that slice already applied, then sort and page the table.
Walk the Live Hiring viewsUse the sidebar to open Requisition Health, Pending Approvals and Recruiter Workload, the views a talent acquisition lead checks first.
Hide the sidebarUse the panel icon at the top left to give the charts the full width, and bring it back the same way.
Choose your reporting periodExplore an earlier reporting date, or use month, quarter, financial-year and custom date options in Completed Hiring and Attrition. Private workspaces use your organisation’s saved financial-year start.
Ask, then shareAsk a guided question, follow its evidence and download an HTML snapshot of the chosen view. It keeps the charts, selected filters and reporting context in a file that recipients can open without signing in.

Three questions it is built to answer

Open each one to see which views answer it and what you would look at first in the demo.

Where is hiring stalling right now?

Start with the Live Hiring overview at the reporting date, then move into Requisition Health and Pending Approvals to see which requisitions are ageing, which have no active candidates and which are still waiting for sign-off. Recruiter Workload shows how the open demand is spread across the team.

In the Aster Vale demo, open Requisition Health and sort by days open, then switch to Pending Approvals to see what is waiting with approvers and for how long. Where a report leaves a gap, the product says so in plain sight: a requisition with no candidate count is excluded from candidate measures and the view tells you.

How is our completed hiring changing?

Completed Hiring takes the hires you have already made and shows how volume moves over time, how the mix is shifting between worker types and areas of the business, which sources the hires came from and where they landed geographically.

Each successful refresh is retained as reporting history, whether it comes from a workbook upload or your Workday connection. In the demo, try Hiring Mix and Hiring Sources with a single country selected.

Where do departures concentrate?

Attrition shows departures over the period, compares them across the organisation and by recorded reason, and breaks them down by tenure band, leader and location so you can see whether leavers cluster in particular teams or at particular points in the employee journey.

Departure shares are not presented as workforce attrition rates. Definitions and missing inputs are identified, so readers can see what the data supports. The Data & Definitions view in the demo lists every measure and what it excludes.

A guided setup. A clearer picture.

Choose manual uploads or a Workday connection. We help your team get the right data into the same easy-to-use dashboard suite.

Confirm your reports

Start with your existing Workday reports or their equivalents. Together we confirm the columns, people and reporting periods needed for hiring, approvals, organisation structure and departures.

Choose your refresh

Use our one-workbook template, or share the HRIS setup pack with your team for a guided, read-only Workday connection.

Validate together

PowerDash checks the mappings and first results with you. Your automatic schedule is activated after validation; manual uploads are checked before they update your dashboards.

Explore and share

Sign in to your branded workspace, explore the trends and guided questions, and share a chosen view as an HTML snapshot. Refresh by upload or let your schedule take care of it.

Set up around your organisation

  • Your HRIS team approves the reports and read-only integration access. We help with the mapping and checks before automatic updates begin.
  • Your administrator can check the last successful refresh, adjust the 12- or 24-hour schedule, pause updates or request a refresh.
  • Other HRIS or ATS exports can use saved mapping profiles, subject to validation of the specific files.
  • PowerDash sits alongside your HR system, turning your existing reporting into a clearer, repeatable view.

Questions people ask first.

Can we upload reports instead of connecting Workday?

Yes. Use the PowerDash Analytics Export template: one Excel workbook with five worksheets for requisitions, pending approvals, organisation structure, hires and departures. Upload it daily, weekly or whenever you need a refresh. The workbook is checked before publication and each successful refresh is retained in your reporting history. The HRIS setup pack includes the template and column requirements.

Do we need to build new Workday reports?

Start with the five reports your team already uses, or your tenant’s equivalents. Your HRIS team confirms that the required columns are included and the reports cover the right people and dates. The setup pack explains what to check; PowerDash works with your team where adjustments are needed.

How do we know whether our reports will fit?

Before you commit, Martin reviews a sample workbook from your Workday reports against the five worksheets it expects. If a column is missing or ambiguous, you will hear about it then, not after go-live. Exports from other HRIS or ATS systems go through an advanced import with their own saved mappings, with the same check.

Who can see what?

Your workspace administrator adds members and assigns HR view for the full workspace or Business view for a selected supervisory structure and everyone below it. Members sign in with a passwordless email link. Snapshots contain only the downloader’s permitted view; anyone holding the downloaded file can open it.

Who is Aster Vale Group?

A fictional company created for the demo on this page, with generated people, roles, locations, hires and departures. It is not a customer and it does not describe any real organisation. Customer data lives only in that customer’s own workspace and is never used for demonstrations.

Can we try the live product?

Yes, right here. The Aster Vale demo on this page is the shipped product, open to everyone without a login, and you can also open it in its own tab. Your own workspace is private and by invitation; Martin will walk you through it with your reports.

How easy is it to connect Workday for automatic updates?

We guide the setup with your HRIS team. They approve read-only access and provide the integration details securely in the app. PowerDash checks the mappings, reporting scope and first results with you before activating updates every 12 or 24 hours. You can keep using workbook uploads during setup.

Do you need my personal Workday password?

No. The automated connection uses integration credentials approved by your HRIS team, provided through the secure setup area in your private workspace.

Your Workday data. A clearer story. Less routine work.

Tell Martin what leadership keeps asking for. We’ll help you choose between a simple workbook upload and an automated Workday connection, then validate your reports and agree the setup together.
