Developing an Effective Report Template

Writing an effective report will help your employees be able to complete the report easier and it will allow you to compile them faster. If you’re wondering about how you can get the most out of your report templates, look no further.

Tip #1: Write clearly.

When you draft your report, you should make sure that your writing is clear. Don’t try to do too much with your report. Ask one question at a time in simple language. When you write your questions clearly, there will be less confusion among workers who fill it out, resulting in less issues over time on both your end and theirs.

Tip #2: Avoid form fatigue.

Form fatigue is what happens when people have to fill out tons of forms and as a result end up missing key information on a form due to mental fatigue. Avoid form fatigue by keeping your report templates as short as possible. Only ask the most important information. Anything that’s not absolutely needed on a form is bets avoided if you can help it.

Tip #3: Put it online.

An online report has plenty of benefits that will help you in a number of ways. When you place your report online you’ll be able to have people fill out the form more easily, analyze data quicker, and so much more. We’ll touch base on this again at the end of the article for more detail.

Tip #4: Test your report.

Taking your report template through a test run can help you to key in on any confusion people may have while completing your report. To test your report, give it to a coworker (or friend if there’s no coworker) and have them fill it out. Ask them if there were any spots they were confused about or had trouble with once they finish it. Use this feedback to change the report design if needed.

Why to File Your Reports Online

Filing your reports online help you to make your organization run more efficiently. If you’re not sure whether to have your report templates online or in hard copy, here are a few benefits to the online form.

Easy to Analyze Data: Analyzing data can be a long and arduous process, but when report forms are online it makes the process much easier. You’ll be able to compile all your documents in one easy-to-access location to review their information all at once. You can shave off hours of time by transferring your data into an Excel spreadsheet so there’s no longer a need to manually enter names or phone numbers.

Shareability: The ability the share your report templates makes life simply easier. In the past people would have to come to your office to pick up a form or fax it, but now you can simply post it online or e-mail it.

Safely Store Information: Store your digital report templates with encryption, to prevent people from gaining access to confidential information.

Avoid Illegible Handwriting: As much as we all want to have crisp and clear handwriting, many of us don’t. When completing forms this can create problems if something we say can’t be deciphered and HR has to go on a search for us to solve the problem.
