How to View Daily Reports Understanding Daily Reports What is a Daily Report? A Daily Report in Cloudica™ is a comprehensive feature that provides a detailed log of an employee's workday. It tracks the hours worked, tasks completed, and applications used, offering managers a clear view of how time is allocated, and productivity is maintained. Why Are Daily Reports Important? Daily Reports are crucial for several reasons:

• Accountability: They provide transparency into employees' daily activities, helping managers ensure that time is being used effectively.
• Data-Driven Decisions: With detailed insights into work patterns, managers can make informed decisions about workload distribution, process improvements, and resource allocation.
• Performance Tracking: Daily Reports allow for regular monitoring of individual and team performance, enabling timely feedback and interventions. 
• Remote Work Management: In a remote work environment, these reports offer a virtual equivalent of monitoring in-office activities, helping maintain productivity and engagement. 

Identifying When a Managed User Creates a Daily Report When a Remote User saves their Daily Report, managers and owners will be notified in their Application Dashboards. Here’s how you’ll know:  1. User Data Highlighting: In the Virtual Workspace, the Snapshot Pie Chart of the User Data box will turn pink, indicating that a new Task Report has been saved. 2. Notifications: You will receive a notification directly in your dashboard, alerting you that a Task Report is ready for review. How to View a User’s Daily Report View Through the User Data In the Virtual Workspace dashboard, each remote user has a User Data box that displays essential information such as the latest screenshot, total worked time, idle time, and more. When a user saves a Daily Report, their Snapshot Pie Chart in the User Data box changes from teal to pink, signaling that the report is available for viewing. To access the User’s Daily Report:
