TraceLink, the largest end-to-end digital network platform for intelligent orchestration of the supply chain, has officially announced the launch of its Opus Reports and Dashboard. According to certain reports, the stated functionality is markedly made through no-code tools, thus providing a rather simple and straightforward way for business users to monitor supply chain performance metrics in real time, identify potential issues before they escalate, and make data-driven business decisions with confidence. More on the same would reveal how, by leveraging the given solution, Opus Reports and Dashboards allows customers and their supply chain partners to access a single and consistent view of business performance. This it does to enhance service levels across the board. With specialized charting tools making all the necessary data available, this new technology prepares the user to identify cost-saving opportunities, optimize inventory levels, and streamline shared processes such as order-to-cash or procure-to-pay cycles.
Apart from that, customers can also benchmark historical business performance, as well as create dynamic partner scorecards to ensure process changes are actually improving key metrics.
Talk about the benefits of using Opus Reports and Dashboards, we begin from end-to-end visibility for all supply chain partners. You see, TraceLink’s dashboards have shown to extend beyond traditional data sharing by providing a holistic view of supply chain orchestrations for both TraceLink customers and their partners. As a result, all parties can access real-time data on transactions. This data can pertain to order confirmations, shipment statuses, and inventory levels etc. Such a setup, like you can guess, also goes a long distance in the context of empowering customers and partners to collectively manage complex multienterprise processes like procure-to-pay and order-to-cash, minimizing errors, preventing disruptions, and ensuring On-Time In-Full (OTIF) delivery at every step of Commerce, Manufacturing, and Logistics operations.
“Complete supply chain visibility through real-time, longitudinal reporting and dashboarding has long been at the top of every chief supply chain officer’s wishlist, yet this capability has remained elusive—until now,” said Shabbir Dahod, President and CEO of TraceLink. “Modern supply chain organizations need tools that not only meet business user requirements, but can also be quickly configured to reflect real-time network data and shared with supply chain partners for joint visibility. Opus Reports and Dashboards fills a critical gap, empowering organizations to achieve true supply chain collaboration.”
Next up, we have the prospect of real-time decision-making across business ecosystems. Here, the new reporting solution basically banks upon an assortment of sophisticated features, including dynamic lookups, contextual filtering, and cross-object relationships, to provide an instant visibility into critical business processes for all the partners involved in a supply chain network. Complimenting the same would be advanced capabilities like drill-down reporting and dynamic filtering that enable users to swiftly navigate through data, diagnose issues, and respond to evolving conditions in real-time. The idea here is to facilitate quick resolution of exceptions and enhance overall supply chain resilience.
Then, we have configurable dashboard for tailored orchestration management. This particular feature paves the way for users to adapt their dashboards to meet the unique requirements of diverse orchestration scenarios, from managing procure-to-pay workflows for commercial transactions to overseeing production quality in external manufacturing or tracking key logistics milestones. Furthermore, TraceLink Administrators can design and save configured company views that dynamically update based on the most recent orchestration data, ensuring the right information is always accessible for proactive monitoring and decision-making.
Joining that would be the presence of actionable insights for continuous process optimization. These analytics, in essence, bring to the fore an overview describing the performance of your supply chain orchestrations. For instance, by analyzing late delivery patterns across multiple suppliers, a manufacturer can identify recurring delays linked to specific regions or partners.
Finally, our last piece of highlight stems is rooted in the new solution’s dynamic user interfaces. At launch, TraceLink’s dynamic UI capabilities for query objects, reports, and dashboards should provide users with a flexible and intuitive user experience. Hence, users can easily create, modify, and interact with query objects using a no-code interface, allowing for rapid configuration of queries, reports, and dashboards without technical expertise.
