Good idea, I'll file an enhancement ticket.

Be aware that at the moment some of the new report sources are only available as embedded reports - we are working on making them available as user generated sources too but there are some issues we have to resolve first.

A definite +1 from me, and for much the same reasons: The ability to provide reporting up the management hierachy would be a very useful feature for us to say the least.

When you say "up the management hierarchy" which way is "up"? Do you mean:

1. Ability to a manager to see records of their staff, and their staff's staff, and their staff's, staff's, staff, etc.

or

2. Ability for a staff member to see their manager's records, and their manager's manager's records, etc.

I can see the use case for 1 but if you mean 2 can you explain a bit more about how you might use this?

Oh, I definitely meant that a manager could see the details for all of those in the position / organisation below theirs. I would ideally like the same cascading arrangement for "manager" as there is for "position" and "organisation" (i.e.  not just direct team but indirect team), but I know that's a bigger question for all of the report sources rather than just this one.

I can indeed see that option 2 wouldn't make sense, fear not!
