Navigate to the 'manage reports' section from the analytics menu in WorkCover Connect.
The 'Customised claim reports' section offers a single claim snapshot template or a customised claims data download for a raw CSV export. Press the 'create' button to get started.
Select 'customised claims data download' and press the next button.
In the claims filter step, you can set report parametres such as date range, report type and stay at work status.
On the next screen you can select available claim fields to include or exclude in your report template.
The data in WorkCover fields may be labelled differently to your data. In this step you can relabel those fields so they will match when you reimport the data into your own systems.
In the final step, name your report template so you can clearly identify it when you next need the same data. You can also add it to the claims, corporate, finance or rehabilitation category or select whether to share this report with other account holders within your policy. Review the details on the page, including the preview of fields you selected in the previous steps, and press the save button at the bottom of the page when you're done.

Select an option to customise your dashboard. You will be taken to the settings page for that feature.
On the settings page, after changing settings, click 'apply changes'. This will return you to the dashboard with the new settings.

Name the dashboard and include notes if required. Select 'yes' if you'd like to share the report with other accounts in your organisation
