Access

Upon navigating to the Detailed Appointed Faculty Data Dashboard, you will be prompted to login with your UTORid credentials. Note that you must be connected to the VPN (Cisco AnyConnect) to access the dashboards.

General Overview

Source

The data are sourced from HRIS by extracting the data out of the Data Warehouse, as data extracts tend to be faster than live connections.

Because extracts are a snapshot of the data, the extract needs to be refreshed to receive updates from the data warehouse. SAP tables are extracted every weekday at midnight. The dashboard is scheduled to be updated with Data Warehouse data on the last day of each month at 7:00pm. You can determine the last update by looking at the “Data Extracted on” date in the top-right of the dashboard. The date shown is the date that the Data Warehouse was last updated from SAP HANA (HRIS) at the time the dashboard was update. There is a lag between when the Data Warehouse is updated from HRIS, and so the last updated date may show a day or two before the final day of the month.

Data Specifications

The dashboard contains data for appointed faculty positions, following the specifications for reporting on University of Toronto appointed faculty data, finalized in September 2021. These specifications include the following:

  • Appointed faculty members only
  • PVP group (includes: President / Vice Presidents and Vice Provosts) – not included on any tabs with individual faculty member details
  • Clinicians who also hold a faculty appointment are included, all other Clinicians are excluded
  • Faculty members who have at least a 20% total FTE are included
  • Faculty members on Unpaid Leave are included
  • Excluded: Faculty members on Long Term Disability LTD
  • Excluded: Non-budgetary cross appointments are not reflected in the data

Filtering

  • The “Select a Measure” filter defaults to showing Headcount (rather than FTE). This is the preferred measure for viewing the data.
  • All other filters default to “(All)”.
  • The Clinicians filter identifies appointed faculty who are also Clinicians. For salary analysis, it is recommended to use this filter to exclude Clinicians. 
  • Faculty with budgetary cross appointments are reflected in the Academic Unit where they hold their Main appointment on all tabs. Two tabs include “Appointment Unit” fields that show a breakdown on Budgetary Cross Appointments: “Individual Details” tab and “Faculty Count by Main Appointment Showing Budgetary Cross Appointments” tab. 
    • Most tabs have a filter for “Academic Unit” – this refers to the Main Appointment Unit for any faculty member.
    • “Individual Details” tab and “Faculty Count by Main Appointment Showing Budgetary Cross Appointments” tabs also have an “Appointment Unit” filter – this refers to any academic unit that a faculty member holds a budgetary appointment (Main or Cross).
  • The “Individual Salary” and “Individual Details” tabs also contain a search bar where you can search for a faculty member by name. A multi-select option is available.

Downloading Data

Basic Download Instructions

Users are able to download a crosstab view for all tabs on the dashboard, meaning you may download the view of the data you see on your screen, but not the underlying dataset. In order to download, click the download icon in the bottom right of your screen. Next click “Crosstab”. Select the option that includes the title of the data (I.e. do not choose the “Help” or “Extract” options). Next, select your preferred format (Excel or CSV) and finally click “Download”.

Note:  on Excel downloads, the first row of your data will appear in white font. So we suggest changing the font colour to black, before further analyzing the data.

Downloading Individual Salary and Individual Details Tab

The Individual Salary & Individual Details tabs each additionally contain a “Go to Download Data” button above the data table. Clicking this button will take you to a download tab for the corresponding data. The benefit of this tab is that the download will include a record of the filters applied to the downloaded data as well as the data source and extraction date for your records. Once on this tab, click “Click to download the data” at the top of your screen. Choose your preferred download format (Excel or CSV) and click “Download”. Note this is the preferred method of downloading data for these two tabs.

Important Considerations

  • PVP group (includes: President / Vice Presidents and Vice Provosts) are included only on tabs with total counts/FTE and not on any tabs with individual faculty member details. In essence, you will not be able to view any personally identifiable details about any of your faculty members who hold PVP roles.
  • It is important to note that on the “Faculty Count by Main Appointment Showing Budgetary Cross Appointments” tab, you will not be able to see the counts of any faculty member whose Main Appointment unit is outside of your Faculty but who also holds a budgetary cross-appointment within your faculty. You should refer to this tab on the “Appointed Faculty Counts – All Divisions” dashboard for a complete picture of all faculty who hold appointments within your Faculty.
