Planes, Trains and Automobiles - they all have pilots, and they each have a dashboard. The same goes for the enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution, SAP Business One. Dashboards are an intuitive and user-friendly element of the SAP Business One Cockpit providing quick access to report visualizations such as bar or pie charts of the SAP Business One data of your choice. These easy-to-use and fully customizable dashboards are ideal for business owners as they provide immediate access to the most relevant reports in a visual format and the ability to consistently monitor performance with key performance indicators (KPIs).
Just like a pilot relies on their dashboard to understand current conditions and check the status of the plane they are flying, a business owner can rely on their dashboard to maintain an understanding of the business they are running. Users can quickly interpret, manipulate and adjust the dashboards with drag-n-drop widgets to get the status they need and make more informed decisions. They are a form of interaction and analysis that provide management with the ability to drill down and view a project, a department, or the business as a whole.
