What is the Skills Finder report and when should I use it?

Overview

The Skills Finder report allows you to select one or more skills and review a list of people who have some or all of those skills.

You can refine the results using filters such as people, roles, and groups, making it easier to find individuals with the exact skill combination you need.

This report is especially useful for workforce planning, project staffing, compliance checks, or identifying subject matter experts across your organisation.

Note: This report is only visible if the Roles feature is in use within your portal.

Locating the Skills Finder report

Navigate to Admin → Analytics and click the Skills Finder report tile under the Roles report category.

Filtering your report

After selecting one or more skills, the report shows all people who have one or more of the selected skills by default. However, you can filter the report by:

  • Skills: any skills that exist in your portal

  • Show all users: users with any of the selected skills or only users with all of the selected skills

  • People: default and custom fields

  • Roles: any roles that exist in your portal

  • Groups: any groups that exist in your portal

Note: Follow our guide to learn how to save your favourite filters and download reports.

Example

The ABCE Training company needs to assemble a project team with both first aid and workplace safety expertise.

They use the Skills Finder report, selecting the ‘First Aid’ and ‘Workplace Safety’ skills and choosing to show users with all selected skills to identify people who meet both requirements.
