# Run an HR report (`hr_report`)

Headcount, joiners and leavers, time off taken, or everyone's leave balances.

headcount: who works here on as_of (default today), by department, location and employment type, people on leave counted. joiners_leavers: who started, and whose last day fell, from-to. time_off: approved working days off from-to, per leave type and per person. balances: everyone's balance of each tracked leave type for a leave year (default the current one), paged. Periods default to this leave year so far. To show a person, put it in a view (view_show).

Price: Free up to 1,000,000 reads a month for the whole account, then $0.50 per 10,000 reads. A call that fails costs nothing.

## Use it when

Someone asks how big the team is, who joined or left, or how much leave is left.

- For a page that shows the report to a person, use [view_show](https://conecto.chat/tools/views/view_show.md).

## Say this to your agent

> How many vacation days does everyone have left this year?
