I've already know. Be be aware of from previous webinars. The slate expertise you associate with underscores for years has become the slate arm of Carnegie. My role is to grow and optimize reports for our partners to ensure they have the right data at the right time to make decisions that help shape a class, positively affect student success, and maintain relationships with alumni and donors.
Reports is just once one of seven areas of slate strategy housed within the Carnegie Slate optimization team, which also include let's start off with implementations and consultations who can help our partners with scratch implementations including enrollment, student success and advancement along with offering audits, general consultations and more. Next up, we have our communications team within your instance can set up in House student search, through mail, all with custom creative.

Hi Laurie!
Our goal for today's webinar is to discuss how we have combined the strengths of Slate reports and slate portals. Within each module. We plan to share how to overcome the challenges they present individually and show how it can become a powerful tool when combined properly and provide visualize your data as in ways that you never thought possible. From your recruitment staff to athletic coaches to faculty and application readers, Carnegie reporters can be a convenient one. Stop shop to all of your campus constituents.

Hello from Transylvania University!
Reporting in Slate can be effective an effective way to view the data within your slate instance, right? You can build reports in many areas, including building a report directly from your events and scheduler tool to building reports directly from forums. Today we are primarily going to cover building reports in the queries and reports tool, as well as building reports within the portals module.
With queries, you can pull a list of records including details that can answer questions like who is a prospect, inquiry, or applicant, what major are they interested in? Whereas with reports you can display data tables, query lists, or utilize Data Explorer including aggregate counts of those records which can help answer questions like how many students within our fall 2023 cycle are prospects, have they applied or enrolled?
Carla Duarte
02:08:26 PM
Hi Megan!!
While reports can seem daunting at first, a great way to become familiar with this tool is by exploring and utilizing data from different query bases. With selecting your desired query base, you can build reports for a variety of departments. You can create reports for admissions advancement, student success, marketing, financial aid, athletics, and so much more, as long as that information is listed within your slate instance. Let's talk about some of the advantages in building reports in Slate.
For one, it's user friendly. You have the ability to customize your reports based on the details you want to see. Let's take a look at this example a little more closely.
Chris Carl
02:08:55 PM
Carla! Miss you!! And you are going to LOVE this.
OK, so here we have a report that consists of three different sections. One thing you will notice is that you can add different reports sections with different query bases. The first section includes an admissions funnel report, the second section includes a segment on events, and the final section includes a part using Data Explorer.
Carla Duarte
02:09:35 PM
<3 woo hoo
Johnny Grimmer
02:09:45 PM
Will there be Suitcase IDs available for these reports/portal examples at the end of the presentation?
Let's start off with the admissions funnel report part. When building a report part, you have three separate query based types that you can select from, which includes local query bases, slate template library query bases, and configurable joins. More often than not, I now find that I build many reports using configurable joins as long as it offers an opportunity to include information from other different tables. Looking at my example here with selecting the query base of configurable joins person.
You can construct your columns with stages of the funnel, such as inquiries, then join in the applications table to include stages such as applications, admits, deposits, and enrolled. The great thing with report building is that you have control of how you want to customize it. While this example merely displays 5 stages of the funnel that your students can journey through, you can add as many or as little as you need. So if you want to see denied, if you want to see Prospect students, you can customize it.
To fit your needs. Now if we look at the bottom half of this slide, optimizing your filters and exports is an efficient way to develop other details such as seeing what region do they live in, what is their average GPA, are they full time or part time? To do this, as you can see at the bottom left, you want to aggregate your rows and do a group by. The first thing that I did was add a literal so this way it can keep my full counts between the number of inquiries.
Applications, admits and deposits that I want to see. Next up I added a second export so that way I can aggregate the data by the region that they live in. So that way when I go back into my original front view of my report on the right hand side you can see when you click on the total number it now breaks down to each region of the student that the students live in.
Chris Carl - Carnegie, powered by Underscore
02:11:45 PM
Hey Jonny, long time no see. We don't have any to share today, but we'll be reaching out to the attendees with them shortly!
Let's take another look at a report part which consists of event details. This part section was including details from the form and form response, query, basis and place of just seeing counts on the number of registrations, number of attendees, or show rate percentage. Another creative way to display your data is by adding a chart to your report. 1 tip I would recommend is to be cautious with the number of columns you have as in my chart you can see one column I have the number of registrations.
Korn event, then the second column I have the number of attendees for an event and the third column I have is the show rate percentage and then when I utilize the charts tool it plugged in a chart for each of my columns for registrations and attendees.
Now let's take a deep dive in what you can do with reports and data Explorer.
Johnny Grimmer
02:12:37 PM
Sounds good! Thanks, Chris.
At this part at this past year Slate Summer Summit we were introduced to this new tool. With data Explorer you can create a pivot table by formatting your exports and filters same as you would with a query. In this example I wanted to pull some class profile information. So what are students, majors. What student types do they fall under, what their rank one region is, their iPads classification, and full time part time status? Then once I've configured all of the exports and filters that I need the next step.
What I want to do is set up my configure Explorer settings which is going to prompt you to say do you want to add edit permissions and you click yes and then you hit save. Then when you save for the first time one thing you'll notice is you'll have a blank screen and then on the left hand side you'll see all of your exports on.
That you've selected and you can simply drag and drop. For a functionality that's very interactive, you can say, do I want to see my number of first year students? All of these features will demo later in the presentation when Tom talks about building reports within portals.
Now we talked about some of the strategies that you can do with building reports and we found out that you can add different report parts sections with different query bases like using local query bases like template library, query basis and configurable joins. You do have the ability to optimize your reports by X by using exports and filters. So if you want to use the group by feature or aggregate different functions like finding out the averages, determining counts, you have the ability to add visual charts.
The queries and reports offers a few chart options like a pie chart or a bar chart to a column to a timeline, but we find that it's very limited because of course you want to be mindful for how many columns you use or also have a chart for every column and it may lose out on readability, readability. And then last up we have is making use of Data Explorer, which again features that interactive component that you can actively drag and drop your.
Exports right into your pivot table. Now some items that you might run into as a roadblock. Things that you can't do is include data tables with multiple columns. The more columns that you have, the less visible that you might find. If I have 10 different columns, you may see that it may squish the readability of what you're looking for for first year or transfers or or graduates, etcetera. Another issue I've run into is displaying large volumes of data.
And lead into report timing issues. Sometimes you open a report and depending on how much data it has, it lags or it takes a long time to load. And the last thing is having the opportunity to add visual enhancements. Nevertheless, we found that many of these challenges can be better served when you build your reports with portals. So Tom will walk us through some strategies for building reports and portals. Tom.
Thanks, Anita. So building off what you just said and just outlined within the queries and reports module, reports are also available within portals. This could be a great solution for your campus partner because a lot of decision makers across your campus either might not have access to sleep or they might need information very quickly. So taking the time to learn and become comfortable with queries or reports may not be an option for them. By bringing a slate report into a portal, you're providing immediate access to the data they need, most likely behind the institutional single sign on that they've already been using to maximize campus by in.
And of course, those aren't the only strengths with reports within a portal.
So of the many strengths of reports within portals, the most obvious to me is the fact that if you're familiar with the Slate report builder, you know how to build a report in Portal. It's the exact same process, just with a singular portal.
Another strength is the ease in which you can incorporate other programming languages like CSS and JavaScript into your reports by using the portal builder tools already provided. If you're not familiar, CSS stands for Cascading Style sheets, and it's what brings your forms, applications, and portals to life. It's the design tool that allows you to customize your HTML or content on the page. JavaScript is a computer programming language that used to create interactive effects within your browser or manipulate the elements presented on the page that might be sent through from Slate by default.
Together, CSS and JavaScript allow you to take a slate report that gives you limited control over a look and feel and truly make it your own. It's an easy changes you can make to reports within a portal are adjusting the text, wrapping that can make the group by drill downs difficult to read, color coding certain rows or data points, and combining multiple reports on one page using elements such as accordions.
So most of the weaknesses are cats that come along with reports module inherently transferred through reports within portals, especially when it comes to load time. And although being familiar with the reports module is a strength, when it comes to reporting within portals, it's also a weakness as you have to rebuild existing reports in the portal itself.
So with that, it now leads to Carnegie report calls. Our reporters combine the best of both reports and portals so that we can visually enhance how slate users view their students through the funnel process. Our portals allow us to show data that is unique to each slate user when they log in. By using the core software behind Data Explorer, we're able to maximize what you can get from an ordinary report and move the roof off what you can typically do with your average portal.
Johnny Grimmer
02:17:48 PM
Has anyone figured out how to get the width of the data explorer to match the width of the traditional report parts? The data explorer seems to be a bit wider by default.
So the foundation of our portals are the targeted audience that will be using them. They are user friendly and focused on the ability to have all types of campus partners view the data that is unique to them. Coaches can view their athletes, faculty can view their incoming class, and your admissions staff can now see a new funnel numbers daily all at the same time.
I'll pass it over to Amanda for some differences between static and dynamic reports.
Adenike Akintobi
02:19:35 PM
Hello from Spelman College. Can you embed the portal into a Sharepoint site?
Chris Carl - Carnegie, powered by Underscore
02:20:00 PM
Jonny, that's actually one of the things that makes this marriage super successful. Because data explorer lives in the reports module, it's very difficult to get at to change the way it looks. When you put it in a portal like Tom will show, you can use CSS to resize any element
Chris Carl - Carnegie, powered by Underscore

Adenike Akintobi
02:21:28 PM
Thank you Chris.
Thanks. So materialized views are kind of a large part of how we use our portals within portals. Materialized views simplifies complex data by saving query information. This way you don't have to run a query every time you need to access that information. The main thing that sets the materials view apart is that it's a copy of a query data that does not run in real time. So although it isn't live data, it retrieves data very quickly. You can set materialized views to get refresh on a schedule so that the updated information won't fall through the cracks. Imagine having a million records in your instance.
Rather than running through each record to gather certain data points whenever the user signs into the portal, we're taking multiple captures of it throughout the day and passing it over to the portal for whenever the user logs in.
But because we are using materialized view, the only way to get that into the portal is with custom SQL. So once it's inside, it acts as like it's any other query that you would typically have within the portal. You can link with loop on it. You could pull it into exports.
It is our custom SQL that we can add a filter to those materialized views as well so that only the students that correlate to that potential user are the ones that are being populated via the data table. Data tables are external JS plugins which allow us to loop through a list of students and Add all requested exports into that table that which can be filtered upon. You can also then click on those individual records and have our users engage with them in any sort of way.
Another aspect that we have within our portal is Data Explorer. So along with custom SQL we use a little bit of JSON in JavaScript to optimize the software behind Data Explorer within the portals.
Justin Harville
02:22:51 PM
It is possible to embed a portal into a static content block of a report to reside on the user homepage : )
And lastly, JavaScript is what truly ties these reports together. They allow us to get individual accounts of goal setting, create tables for data Explorer to generate, and export these tables as a download straight to the user's computer.
So with that, we will then now lead to a walkthrough of kind of whatever portals look like.
All righty. So when a user logs into another portal, they'll be able to see their current pipeline or potential dashboard information. Right now, our user is seeing their students throughout the funnel process and how many of them have went from one step to another. So as you can see, 79% of all of our applicants have moved into the accepted rate. You'll also notice that we have a progress bar below. We are pulling all this information with materialized views and custom SQL so that we're getting not only individual numbers, but also the individual numbers.
Unique to that user in terms of our goal, we are actually using JavaScript to take in the users last year's numbers, add an X-ray, I believe it's 2% to that number, adding that then to kind of what we want that goal to be for this year and then finding out how close that user is to reaching that goal.
I'll now kind of pass it over to Amanda to ask us how could we get you to your data within this webinar or within this report?
Luke Robinson
02:24:27 PM
@Jonathon, you can use CSS and pseudo elements to add emojis into a portal view or report: https://dev.to/beumsk/how-to-add-emoji-s-in-your-website-using-html-css-or-javascript-4g6g
Thanks, Tom. So we've talked a little bit about report building and how you can configure different types of reports. If you want to add those reports that you would traditionally use within the queries and reports tool, but you still want to display it within your portal, it's simple. If you go to your portal, if you have an existing portal created already, if you look at the very bottom, you do have an opportunity to add a report straight within your portal. So all you do is click new report and the steps is.
Chris Carl - Carnegie, powered by Underscore
02:24:42 PM
Justin, that's also not something we've tried! Now that you can grab embed codes for portals, I don't see why you can't throw it into a Static Content block on the home page, but it might be really small and unreadable!
Actually very. It's identical to what you would do to building a report within queries and and and reports. You name the report, you select your orientation and you hit save. Then it will prompt you to say what base are you looking for. So let's take an example of one that I've already built. This example is a report using the prospects based query based. It's a local query base that I've used and I wanted to do 2 years worth of comparative data. I want to see counts for inquiries.
Students submitted applications, admits deposits and enrolled. And then I wanna see that number for my current cycle year and compare it to numbers that we had this time last year, right? So one column is showing me what our current cycle year is for fall 2023, whereas my fall 2022 is point in time and showing me what these counts were this time last year. Then I aggregate my data in a variety of ways. I've offered 3 various examples that we can do the top.
Johnny Grimmer
02:26:03 PM
Thanks, Luke! I just meant that my emoji didn't work in this chat :-) but now I'm going to explore the info that you shared!
Example includes year to date funnel, so I've aggregated this information by student type. We can see our accounts for first year transfers, graduate or an overall total. The next section covers how you can utilize exports and aggregate the data by the major that they were interested in or the major that they applied to. So for every population that I have, you can see for first year students who was interested in the major of biology who may still be undecided.
And then the very bottom section that I've included is top feeder school information. So you may have a variety of team members who go out on recruitment, traveling and do high school visits or college fairs. And you want to see how those schools are producing against your funnel and say, are we actively gaining applicants from those institutions. Here we have an example of what the top ten feeder schools are for first year students. The top 10 undergrad undergraduate schools are for transfers.
And then the top ten graduate schools are for graduate. Now we're going to want to walk you through how we once you have your report all set, we're going to walk you through how you can actually incorporate this to a portal. I'll turn it over to Tom to walk you through that.
Luke Robinson
02:27:09 PM
Whoops
Yeah, so it's as simple as being able to use a widget. You'll want to go into the view of the portal that you would want to add that report to. You would click add the report widget, give it a name, and then potentially a class if you do want to add some styling to it. And then you would just select your report from the reports within the portal itself and then click save. As you can see, we already kind of have our report in our page, so if we click on this next tab, you'll see that we actually have that report here now.
Luke Robinson
02:27:47 PM
¯\_(?)_/¯
We're first using an accordion right now to be able to allow the user to close and open the report just to clean up the page if they want. I'll also close that navigation bar, but as you can see also the columns have a lot larger width and you can also scroll with on the page so that you don't necessarily have to worry about column sizes and you can actually add as many columns as you want and not have to worry about names or words getting cut off.
Now, sometimes users still however want to be able to interact with individual records, right? So that's what leads us to our data tables. By using a materialized view, we are looping in students that are applying to a specific type of or the user.
We also had the ability to Scroll down, so you'll also be able to see we have all the parts within that report still visible to the user.
So right now this is the page of the data tables. By guiding here I just basically clicked on the data table within our navigation bar and as you can see all of my students have been listed throughout this table as a grid. I can also potentially select on the student and have pop up information you need to them which could then allow your user to either link off to the reader login interaction via form. That way potentially me and Amanda can both sees any sort of interaction that happened within the student then if the user decides to.
Brian Myers
02:29:03 PM
Whoops, no ascii in chat
Justin Harville
02:29:10 PM
add a little CSS and it will look just like you were viewing it outside of the slate. Build based on Framework no branding output type. See it in slate and security to User
They need a filter on some of this information. They can scroll onto the bottom and begin to filter on only biology students. Or if they want biology students who have been accepted, they could then see those four students. But then if they only want to see the fall, they could see the fall. So we have that user's ability to now filter on all the students that are applied to them. Or if you want to have all your students potentially list within this report as well, you can do that. You also may see that there are a bunch of columns that may not necessarily be.
Tied to the user. Maybe the user doesn't initially want to see. So we do have the ability to for visibility, where they can begin to get rid of any calm that they may not necessarily want to see at the moment. And as simple as getting rid of it, it's just as simple as getting back in which let's begin to click.
And finally, if the user maybe just wants to see maybe all numbers of the whole right, they don't necessarily need to see the individual students we have installed on the main page that kind of hit from you all before. But we have the data Explorer, so we had it within an accordion and we actually have it to where the user can now begin to pull in specific information and kind of create their own report. So for example if they only want to see the entry terms within the months, they can do so and we can also allow an overflow.
Scroll to begin to have the user see the information in case the data table gets too large. Now we can also have it to where you can add extra exports and they begin to stack upon each other. So you'll see how 2016 has all of their months, 2017 has all of their months, and it does. It works on both ends in terms of entry term and student type. Where I fall 2015 will only pick between Masters and transfers.
However, you also may want to potentially filter on this information right? Maybe your users don't necessarily need to see Masters and first years, so you just unclick them and then apply and this honestly gives the ability to the user to kind of have the world as their oyster, right? If you were to select it all here and apply, we get back to that. However, now if the user also wants to potentially change how they view this information, they can go into this drop down and see potentially different types of ways to view.
This information so we have the bar charts. I personally love an area chart. Not confident what an area chart does, but I like the colors.
They also have the ability for a treemap, if that's what potentially is something that might be interested in how you want to view some data. So the world is kind of your playground in terms of being able to use this data explorer within these portals.
Now one key item that I want to bring up to is there. While it's great to display all of this information in a portal, you may still want to have access to it within an Excel spreadsheet. So I'm can you walk us through if we can add a download button to excel all this information?
Download all this information.
Yeah, so I have it on another page, but with a little bit of extra JavaScript and some CSS. You can actually build an export to excel file that once you click it, you can then download it straight to your computer. And with a little bit of editing I'm going to hit say on this. You can then actually have this excel dot file straight to your computer and now your user can actually be able to save this to the computer. Use it for any potential reports they need to give to other campus partners.
Justin Harville
02:32:13 PM
I am building this out right now for advancement users and working great so far. As the build grows my fear is it will produce a lag for the end user
But it's strictly unique to them and it's unique to the report that they created. If they decide to maybe potentially change that report, they can do so and then just have to redownload the XLS well. So it really gives that user some user customizability and also just a cool feature in terms of being able to have some sort of ownership in terms of a data chart or data table or just the information that they want to potentially show others.
So I believe it kind of concludes our walk through of the presentation and I guess potentially can open up to any potential questions and answers.
All right. Thank you so much Amanda and Tom and Chris for fielding questions in the chat. For some questions that we received prior to the session, I'm just going to read those off and allow you guys to provide those answers. One of the first ones we received was the possibility of linking the two, but this was the entirety of the session. So Darlene, if you are here and you have any other questions, feel free to post them in the chat. The next question came from Luke.
Which was what? Reports and visuals are most popular and helpful with clients, and have you found a way to present a static benchmark or goal within your charts?
Amitenor Wright
02:33:39 PM
How are you able to obtain the feeder info ?
Yeah. So I would say a lot of the the current popular ones at the moment are the progress bar which actually is semi static slash dynamic in which you would have to add the percentage of however you want to set that goal for a specific student or a specific student type. And that could then be applied to everyone who may be overseas say first years or transfers. And then you just have to change that year to year. You decide hey no, maybe this year is 2% but next year is going to be 3% and so you just have to change that whenever. But it change if you change it in one place you'll be able to change it.
In effect, everyone else that kind of it applies to.
All right. Next question came from Lloyd and he may have to miss this. So we will provide that recording in case you're here.
Thank you for joining. And then Stephanie was our next question, which was best practices for managing the updates of reports, how to use snapshots to improve load time and one portal with different permissions or views or multiple Porter portals such as director or executive level portals. So she wanted you guys to touch on all of those.
Yeah, I can definitely kind of go in depth with that, so.
A lot of the ways that we use.
Filters within this information is by using comparisons, right? So we try to compare the students say program to maybe the faculties program and we link them up, but we also utilize roles. So for example, we do allow that ability where maybe all the coaches need to see only their specific sport, but maybe not athletic director needs to see everybody. So by using a role of potential like all access or if the role is athletic director, they won't necessarily need to worry about the specific filter of only show swimming and diving to the swim diving coach. We actually allow it to where you can say show all the students that.
Have sports for example there were sports exist in terms of daily upkeep or yearly upkeep. Being that we do work within queries and all the information is kind of based off queries, you just have to change them kind of yearly. So instead of playing you pulling in 2023 and 2024 you would want to pull in 2024-2025. So you just have to do that yearly once a year.
All right. And then we had a question from Virginia about how to make portals mobile friendly.
Yeah, we could also do that as well. In terms of portals being mobile friendly, we use the bootstrap framework. So for those that may not be familiar with it, I believe it's just a pre made framework that you can kind of actually throw into any portal that you have and which it kind of makes it more responsive. I will say in terms of using reporters within a mobile version, it does like kind of stacked on top of each other.
Diana Faircloth

Can you say the name of the format again for mobile friendly?
Because there is so much data going around, but you can definitely make it to where if you know maybe a media screen size is say the mobile version, you could have it to where some data maybe just changes differently, right? So maybe rather than having the actual data Explorer you can just have static numbers that are being pulled once it's on a smaller screen.
All right. And then our last question, or I'm sorry, we have two questions that just came into the chat. The first one is how are you able to obtain the feeder info? I'll let you touch on that before we move into the next one.
Great question. So in terms of accessing feeder school information, what I would do is build in. If I'm building a report within configurable joins I would join in the table for schools and you can even select schools by category. So if you want to see schools specific to high school you could select high school and then within your export for school name. If you double click on that you can even set limits so if you don't want to display schools for.
Every institution a student applies to you can say let's set a limit to say I only want to display 10 schools at a time or 25 schools at a time.
So your school's database is where you want to access that information.
Great. And then we had another question come in. Can you say the name of the format again for mobile friendly?

Bootstrap
Yeah of course. So we use the bootstrap for framework or format, so you can just Google Bootstrap and probably getbootstrap.com I believe it is. And then they kind of actually have great documentation in terms of how to implement it within your portal.

Thanks, Laura :)
And that concludes all of our questions at this time. If anyone else has additional questions, we'll give you a moment to pace them into the chat. Otherwise, it looks like we're all set. Did you guys want to put up your contact information? There we go.
Just so that folks can have that as well.
