Analytics

Craftboards: the next generation of Self service analytics

We know how much you love Self service charts, and now you can turn those into full dashboards! With the Craftboards feature, it’s now possible to build your own custom dashboards. With only a few clicks, you can now experiment and discover which combination of information fits your use case. 
You can add any chart from existing Sievo dashboards as well as self-made charts from Self service to your Craftboard - mix and match however you like. You have full control of the Craftboard. Once you have created a Craftboard, you can edit the layout and positioning of the charts to suit your needs. 



To ensure that the Craftboard experience is as smooth as possible, we have some restrictions on the amount of Craftboards and charts:

  • It is currently possible for each user to create up to 5 Craftboards.
  • Each Craftboard can contain up to 10 charts, 2 of which can be tables or pivot tables.

Craftboards is currently only available for Spend Analytics module. For those of you that don’t use Spend Analytics (you really should!), we expect to release Craftboards to other solution areas before the end of the year. For more information on how Craftboards work, please check out this Craftboards introduction video in Sievo Academy.

 

Spend Analytics

Assign organisation to reclassification review

With our latest release, you can limit the scope of reclassification permissions not only by category but also by organization. With this change we are able to support better decentralized category responsibilities where spend needs to be reviewed within a limited organization scope, for example: region, country, company, business unit, etc. The definition of Organization is up to you and the permission can go to the most generic level, like a region, or down to the most granular, like a specific plant or production facility.To enable users with wider scopes to review affected organizations, it is possible to filter and sort the Pending requests list also by Organization.

 

Materials Forecasting

Forecast on ERP Supplier level instead of Supplier group level

When Materials Forecasting is set up and configured, Forecast row definition defines on what level of detail the forecasts are made.
Supplier is often part of this definition. Previously it has been possible to include supplier only on the level of the consolidated supplier group. However, if source data quality is good enough there are benefits for having this on the ERP supplier level instead:

  • ERP supplier name and number are better known to the users
  • Allow linking ERP supplier level master data to forecast rows and Analytics
  • Changes and corrections in supplier consolidation will be transparent for Materials Forecasting

Environmental, Social, and Governance

New features added

We have added bunch of features to the  CO2 mapping tool:

  • Select any unit of measurement for the custom process when adding supplier specific emission factor
  • Sort and filter spend and unit of measurements when looking at vendors and materials to find the relevant ones for your needs
  • View all your mappings from one view from the new mapping log view

 

User Experience

Dashboards training tips

We have added dashboard training tips to all the dashboards that have corresponding Sievo Academy material available. Having the right training available on the dashboard will make it easier for users to start using unfamiliar dashboards. With the onboarding tours and gradual training tips released earlier, users are now empowered to take full advantage of all Sievo features.
