We offer a special online subscription service that utilizes the reporting engine Tableau to provide a suite of online reports based on data from your Penelope database.

Tableau is data visualization software created by Tableau Software. It is an online reporting and Dashboard tool that helps you see and understand your data. By connecting to your Penelope database, Tableau generates visualizations of metrics based on a configured data set. These Dashboards help you understand your service level, outcomes, financial and worker performance data, breakdowns and trends with greater clarity and insight.

Tableau subscription service includes the Penelope Base Reports suite that offer pre-generated Dashboards for data sets like client demographics, Referrals, Pre-Enrollment, Events, and Worker data. Each Dashboard allows for dynamic filtering on selected variables like time, service, site etc. You can get further insight by viewing the underlying data set directly from the Dashboard page.

This complete guide provides information about how the Tableau-Penelope integration works, how to access, and navigate Tableau.

For a detailed description of each report in the Penelope Base Reports suite, the filters available, and a list of each diagram along with information about how to interpret the data, please see Navigating Tableau
