Payroll and revenue in one management dashboard

Payroll and revenue lived in separate workbooks, and projections sat beside actuals. Management now gets one interactive dashboard and a PDF, with the two clearly apart.

What we built.

  1. Workbooks are read

    Payroll, revenue and adjustments, straight from the files finance already keeps.

  2. Rules are applied

    Projection rules and adjustments live in plain rule files, not hidden formulas.

  3. Actuals and projections stay apart

    The two never blend into one number.

  4. Names are redacted

    Employee names are removed automatically before anything is published.

  5. Dashboard and PDF are produced

    An interactive dashboard, plus a PDF rendered the same way every time.

Built to hold up.

Redaction is enforced

Publishing fails rather than show an employee name.

Projections are labelled

A forecast never passes for an actual.

Reproducible

The same inputs always render the same PDF.

Access reviewed

Who can open the financial output is reviewed on its own.
