Using the Item Overview Dashboard

Note: Your version of Supply Chain Management must be Fall 2020 or later.

The Item Overview dashboard provides you with a detailed overview of the quantities of each SCM item that is sitting in inventory and placed in sales orders, backorders, purchase orders and requisitions, and calculates the final net difference, informing you about the actual quantity that you need to procure to fulfill the demand. This can help you make decisions on when, what, and how much to procure in order to keep short fulfillment times and provide high customer service. The dashboard information is divided across two tabs:

• Items to Procure: provides an overview of all items
• Overview by ICP: provides an overview of items by ICP

Click one tab or the other depending on the information that you want to display.

Datasets

This dashboard displays data from the Supply Chain Management Core dataset, which includes data from several key objects in SCM. For more details of the objects and fields used in the Supply Chain Management Core dataset, see Supply Chain Management Core Fields.

Note:

To use any analytics item that displays data from the Supply Chain Management Core dataset, you must have the Use Business Analytics for SCM permission set assigned in SCM. Contact your administrator if you require this SCM permission set.
