Summary
To create a matrix report in Workday showing worker terminations by location for the last quarter, excluding contractors and interns, you would start by creating a custom matrix report.
You would use the "Terminations" data source or, for better performance, the "Business Process Transactions (Indexed)" data source, filtering on "Termination bp." Define your report's rows and columns, placing "Location" in the Row Grouping section.
To filter the data, set prompts for the start and end dates to cover the last quarter. Exclude contractors by filtering out workers where "Worker is Non-Employee" is "Yes." To exclude interns, filter by "Employee Type" or "Worker Type" if "Intern" is a defined type, or by job title if necessary. After setting up, test the report to ensure data accuracy.

While the provided context details how to create matrix reports and lists various metrics, including several related to terminations

- To exclude contractors, use the field "Worker is Non-Employee" which will be "Yes" for contingent workers

8.2. You can filter this out.
- To exclude interns, you would typically filter by "Employee Type" or "Worker Type" if these have been customized to include "Intern" as a type
