 Promotions Containing Issues: In All Process Steps (KPI Tile)

 

The analytical app displays the key performance indicator (KPI) Promotions Containing Issues: In All Process Steps. This is the number of retail promotions with one or more issues that may impede the promotion execution in the store.

An issue is reported if a process step (such as purchase price activation or sales price activation) is due or overdue, according to defined validity dates and lead times, or if a block exists on header or item level. Issues also include processing errors in ERP like errors in sales price calculation because of incomplete master data.

You can drill down to the overview screen Issues in Promotion Preparation and from there to the issue details, with insight-to-action capabilities to solve the issues.

Key Features

The key figure Promotions Containing Issues: In All Process Steps shows the number of retail promotions where one or more issues have occurred across all process steps.

Issues also include processing errors in ERP which are shown in the due list even if the defined due timeframe for completion of the corresponding process step has not yet been reached.

This KPI tile shows all promotions with issues, without applying filters. The display currency is pre-filled with EUR.

A drilldown exists from this tile to the overview screen Issues in Promotion Preparation and from there to a master detail screen for all process steps of a selected promotion with issues, with insight-to action and collaboration capabilities. From the overview and master detail screen, it is also possible to navigate to further apps. For more information, see section "Master Detail Screen" and "Navigation Targets" in SAP Smart Business for Retail Promotion Execution.

This KPI tile can also be used as an example for the creation of customer tiles in the KPI modeler, with a specific display currency and possible pre-filtering of process steps, urgency, error relevance, sales organization, and so on, to suit the business needs of roles such as logistics manager, logistics team member, promotion manager/promotion team member, purchaser, or master data expert with responsibilities for different organizational units.

In the KPI modeler, you define the scope of the business data that is displayed later on in the KPI tile of your app. For more information about the KPI modeler, see Adding a KPI in the SAP Smart Business Cockpits Administrator's Guide. Each business role can have predefined tiles in its launchpad that correspond to filtered KPIs for the information relevant to them. For more information on specific tile configuration for SAP Smart Business for retail promotion execution, see Configuration Settings: Promotions Containing Issues.
