Note: A user's account settings and other visibility settings can affect what data the user will see when running a BusinessObjects report. For more information, please refer to the article Visibility Settings and Their Impact on BusinessObjects Reports.


Location: Where can I find this report?

In the BusinessObjects (BO) reporting tool, open these folders in order:

Public Folders => minnesota_live_folder => SSA Report Gallery => 5. Agency - Level => Hennepin County



Prompts: How do I run this report?

For each individual report run, it is recommended that either the Provider or Program Type prompt is used. Completing multiple of those prompts may produce a report with unexpected results.

It is possible to skip the Provider or Project Type prompts and simply complete the  Enter Effective Date prompt. Doing so will cause the report to pull in the greatest available amount of information.

  •          Select Provider(s): Choose one or more emergency shelter, or street outreach providers.
  •          Select Project Type(s): Choose emergency shelter, street outreach, or both of those project types. It is not recommended to run the report by other project types because unwanted projects may then be included.
  •          EDA Provider: Do not change the default value -Default Provider-
  •          Enter Effective Date: The date the report is being run. It is recommended that the time be set to 12:00:00 AM.

In-Depth: What questions can this report answer?

The focus of this report is identifying all families who have recently stayed in an emergency shelter, are engaged with street outreach, or any person staying at any of the three Hennepin Funded family shelters. The report includes both client-level details and summary counts.

  •          Summary Tab: On this tab, it is possible to quickly ascertain how many clients are engaged with the target project types, how many fall into select categories, and whether clients are in sheltered or unsheltered living situations.
  •          All Families Tab: Information about families enrolled in an emergency shelter, street outreach, or staying at any of the three Hennepin Funded family shelters can be found on this tab.  The head of household (HoH) is reported in the detail lines.   Each individual family member is not shown.  If more than one person is indicated as the HoH by selecting “Self” for Relationship to HoH, then more than one person per family may be counted.  Information found on this tab included the most recent providers for which they have Entry/Exits, their veteran status, and whether they are on the Hennepin County Priority List. See the section In-Depth: Families By Name List Columns and Calculations for a full list of available data points.
  •           Shelter Team Tab: Information about families enrolled in one of the three Hennepin-funded Family Shelters (PSP, St. Anne’s, Hotel Overflow) can be found on this tab.  The head of household (HoH) is reported in the detail lines.   Each individual family member is not shown.  If more than one person is indicated as the HoH by selecting “Self” for Relationship to HoH, then more than one person per family may be counted.  Information found on this  tab included the most recent providers for which they have Entry/Exits, their veteran status, and whether they are on the Hennepin County Priority List. See the section In-Depth: Families By Name List Columns and Calculations for a full list of available data points.


In-Depth: By Name List Columns and Calculations

The table below lists every column in the report together with details about how it is pulled from BusinessObjects. Certain column values, such as a client's most recent Entry/Exit provider, are pulled "live" and will always reflect the most recently recorded information.  Users are directed to set the Effective Date prompt to match the report's run date to ensure that the most recent assessment values are also pulled into the report.

Important: Connections between data sources used in this report are made via the Client ID field. This means that if a client has duplicate client IDs pulling into the report, and both records are visible to the person running the report, their information can inflate summary counts. For example: if a client has two Client ID records, and on both records the client is indicated as a veteran, they will count twice on the Summary tab. Identifying and merging duplicate records will reduce inflation of summary counts.
