13. 13 PART 2 : Reports

14. 14 The other layouts of the PPD Reform Tracking Tool 7 other layouts (or reports) were designed to answer the needs of the PPD facilitators Each one focuses on a specific set of information that was recorded in the Issue Filing layout. The information of these 7 layouts does not need to be completed or modified. It comes from the Issue Filing layout. Any update made on the Issue Filing layout updates the information contained in the other 7 layouts.

15. 15 Layout: Alignment with WB Indicators This layout focuses on 4 types of information of the Issue filing layout : Working Group, Reform Number, Reform Title, Indicators. In form view: you can see the alignment with indicators per reform In table view: you can see the information as if it was an excel spreadsheet.  FileMaker gives the possibility to save this table in an excel spreadsheet (see next slide) Form View Table View
