If an employee is marked as a manager (Is a manager = Yes) but no direct reports appear on their profile, it usually means there’s still an active reporting relationship connected to them in the system.
In most cases, this happens because one or more former direct reports are still in a Leave lifecycle status instead of being fully terminated.
Employees with a Terminated status are no longer counted as direct reports. However, employees in Leave or Hired statuses are still considered active for manager-related calculations and reporting, which can cause the employee to remain flagged as a manager.
To identify which employees are still reporting to the manager:
* Create a simple people report.
* Add the Display name field.
* Add the following filter:
Manager's email → Equals → the manager’s email address
* Run the report.
The report will display all employees currently associated with that manager, including employees who may still be in an active lifecycle status such as Leave.
If needed, review the lifecycle status of the employees returned in the report to confirm whether any reporting relationships should be updated.
