Report summary

The Permanent Starters report shows a breakdown of Gross Profit from Permanent Placements, initially by the Start date for each of those Placements.  It also displays the GP by Created date or Deal date for the Placements, and there is also a breakdown by Business Unit and by Site.  

In the headline numbers at the top of the report, you can see the number of Clients who have Permanent Placements, the average Fee percentage, and the total Permanent fees generated by those Placements. 

There are several filters available allowing you to slice the data in different ways, which you can access by selecting the funnel icon. These include cutting the data by, for example, Primary Team or Consultant, and you can choose a specific date period. 

There are a number of predetermined date periods that you can select with a single click, or you can create a bespoke date range by using the sliders or the calendar icons that appear towards the top of the report page, and all the visuals will update accordingly.
