You’ve possibly read some of the other guides on reporting and may even have had some experience of it. If you’re using the reporting tools daily to manage your team’s learning compliance, then you’ll know that there will be times when you won’t achieve 100% compliance because one of your team is off sick, for example.

From your dashboard select Reporting followed by Reporting Exclusions:
