Report creation storyboard with example data

Use this sequence to explain how a report answers one question. The illustrative dataset contains four requests, and the report identifies the two awaiting review without implying a customer result.

What to prepare

  • Field definitions
  • Consistent fictional dataset
  • Builder states
  • Saved report or clearly labeled preview

60-second planning sequence · illustrative copy and visual direction

  1. 01

    0–7s

    Ask the reporting question

    Show a neutral question card beside the sample workspace.

    On screen:Which sample requests await review?

  2. 02

    7–16s

    Inspect the input

    Show R-014 Awaiting review, R-015 Draft, R-016 Awaiting review and R-017 Approved. Keep the sample-data label.

    On screen:Four illustrative requests

  3. 03

    16–26s

    Choose fields

    Use the actual builder to select Identifier, Subject and Status. Hold the selected field names.

    On screen:Show the fields needed to identify the work

  4. 04

    26–36s

    Define the condition

    Set the verified Status equals Awaiting review condition and show its scope.

    On screen:Status: Awaiting review

  5. 05

    36–44s

    Run and save

    Perform the actual run and save sequence for Sample review queue. Preserve observed pending feedback.

    On screen:Create Sample review queue

  6. 06

    44–55s

    Read the result

    Inspect R-014 and R-016 in the resulting report with the active condition visible.

    On screen:Two sample requests match

  7. 07

    55–60s

    Bound the interpretation

    Hold the report title and condition while stating the limited answer.

    On screen:This view identifies the matching sample records

Report question and fields
Choose one question and the actual fields and definitions needed to answer it.
Illustrative dataset
Replace all source rows, filter conditions and output counts as one consistent example.
Run and persistence
Supply the actual run/save path and label a preview accurately when no saved report exists.

Prepare the report model

Supply actual field definitions, filter semantics and save behavior. Confirm whether each row represents a request or an event. The illustrative count is valid only for the stated four-record dataset.

Adapt the reporting question

For a date-based question, identify which date field is used. For 30 seconds, begin with prepared fields and explicitly state that setup, then focus on the condition and result. Do not hide a consequential grouping or permission rule.

Review the interpretation

Compare every displayed row with the source dataset. Avoid conclusions about productivity, delay or workload beyond this example. If the report is merely a preview, use that label and do not imply it was saved for later use.

Review checklist

  • Field choices serve one question.
  • Result rows satisfy the shown condition.
  • Preview and saved report are distinguished.
