4. Variance Filter
This filter allows you to display the Employee Detailed Variances Report in filter-specific form. There are three options highlighted in Figure H in which reports can be displayed.
Figure H
3.1. Variance Greater Than: If this option is selected, it will take a numerical value as input to display the filter-specific report, i.e., the resultant report will display the result with a variance value greater than the entered value. See Figure I for reference. Here, the entered value for variance is $4000, thus the report will display the result for variance greater than $4000.
Figure I
3.2. Variance Less Than: If this option is selected, it will take a numerical value as input to display the filter-specific report, i.e., the resultant report will display the result with a variance value lesser than the entered value. See Figure J for reference. Here, the entered value for variance is $4000, thus the report will display the result for variance lesser than $4000.
Figure J
3.3. Variance Equal To: If this option is selected, it will take a numerical value as input to display the filter-specific report, i.e., the resultant report will display the result with a variance value equal to the entered value. See Figure K for reference. Here, the entered value for variance is $510.33, thus the report will display the result for a variance equal to $510.33.
