How Do I Compare Fourth Data to Data in Tenzo?
To compare figures with Tenzo use Rotasย

Select a rota approved for the selected location

In Tenzo settings, click Labour and check the following:

Exceptions
- Planned cost data in the past will be equal to Actual cost data.
- Sometimes Fourthโs Total Wage Cost do not equal the Sum of Employee Wage Cost on a rota and this can cause a mismatch. This is because some job title's costs are being excluded from the rota. This can be seen in Rota โ Admin โ Configure Locations in Fourth. Tenzo will only pull through the costs from the job titles that are being included in the rota.
- Tenzo requires nicknames to be unique.
- Tenzo does not support custom location costs.
- Tenzo will map 1 employee to 1 division per day.
- Fourth doesnโt cost agency staff on the rota, so Tenzo costs them at their rota hours ร pay rate from Fourth, with no employer NI or pension. This applies to the agency job titles set up for your account, so ask your Customer Success Manager to add the job titles your agency staff use in Fourth. Tenzoโs labour cost will be higher than the rotaโs wage cost in Fourth by this amount.
