Dashboards and Reporting
Visual reporting tools and analytics are essential to help buyers, merchandisers and other retail decision-makers gauge success or identify problem areas quickly. Dashboards should enable executives to quickly appraise the business, highlight selected issues and drill-down to analyze root cause problems.
Dashboards deliver aggregated and relevant information in a visually effective format that enables stakeholders to make well informed decisions. Dashboard components can be configured to meet the needs of the user community. Components include graphical representations (pie charts, fuel gauge, line graphs etc.) of key business metrics and reporting components. Reporting components include the ability to define selection criteria, save as favorites, and schedule for off-line execution and delivery to email as needed; the results can link to either Eqos retailer-supplier data warehouse or internal enterprise data warehouse.
Reporting simplifies the process of creating, changing and manipulating data into formats that address the unique requirements of each organization's user community.
Benefits Include:
- Visual display of 'product portfolios' and other important information based on real-time data
- Analytics gauge success; problems are quickly identified and reported
- Decreases the reliance on the IT organization to create new reports
- Ability to 'drill down' to source documents
