e21analytics® provides built-in dashboards for each department to enable detailed analysis and informed decision-making.
ERP dashboards provide an overview of data for a particular business department or across multiple departments, usually starting with the data aggregated at a high level and then allowing users to drill down into more detailed data. With E21’s ERP dashboards, users readily have the information they need to evaluate the progress and activity in one or more areas and make informed decisions.
With E21 Analytics, E21’s built-in ERP BI solution, user dashboards are only a click away and accessible directly within the E21 ERP system. Dashboards can display data relevant to a single department or business unit, or they can be set to display cross-platform data on a single dashboard, such as sales, inventory, and AR data on a single dashboard. Dashboards can be set to launch automatically upon sign-in based on individual user preferences, and access to each dashboard is controlled through simple menu-level security maintained in E21’s System Administration module. Read and write privileges can be set on an individual user basis. Access to specific data displayed in each ERP dashboard can be restricted to individual users. Dashboards in E21 Analytics can even be linked to E21 screens as user navigation options using the E21 ERP workflow designer.
E21 Analytics also allows organizations to take a more social approach to their ERP dashboards. While users can easily share their dashboard data as an exported PDF or Excel file, dashboards can also be shared as an encrypted URL, allowing users to share dashboards and filtered data views with other users with a single click.
E21 Analytics provides a wide variety of data visualization tools, including bar charts, scatter charts, pivot grids, geographical maps, gas gauges, area charts, and line charts – it’s all possible with E21 ERP’s built-in dashboard solution. Data can even be displayed in more than two dimensions! With each dashboard, then, users have the ability to start with aggregated data and rapidly drill down to transactional level data – by customer groupings and by customer, by product groupings and by product, vendor, warehouse, dates, and more.
E21 Analytics features a built-in SQL builder, allowing IT organizations, data analysts, and power users to create their own customized data views that can then be used to create new dashboards from scratch. Using this same tool, users have the ability to cross-reference data in E21 with data that may be brought in from external systems, such as payroll data, external market data, data from production equipment, and much more.
