Enabling Solution
Business Intelligence Metrics for QAD Transportation Management supports improvements to these key metrics by providing standard, pre-defined dashboards for each of the critical areas, including delivery performance and exceptions, shipment cost and volume.
The information in the Business Intelligence Metrics for QAD Transportation Management comes from the Transportation Management and Package Exception modules of QAD Transportation Management. QAD Business Intelligence collects and aggregates shipment and tracking information into a data warehouse that simplifies analysis. If you are using other applications to manage shipping, you can also populate pre-defined tables from these sources.
Business Intelligence Dashboards present this information in graphical or grid format, using color-coded visuals that focus management attention on potential issues, with drill downs into all supporting details.
