What information is available for the SCS in Power BI?

Updated on

Steps in the screenshots correspond to the numbers in the headings.

Although there are individual reports that are very helpful available through the ATS Reporting Server, there are also two APPs available in Power BI.  Generally speaking, the Apps give you a one-stop shop for your SCS data.

To access these apps, you must have a Power BI license.  There is a minimal cost associated with the license, so you will need approval from your site manager.  If s/he approves, simply submit the request following the instructions listed here:  How do I get access to Power BI and Power BI Tiles Pro for my Monthly Metrics Presentation?

1. Once you have received access, go to Power BI.  You can get there by accessing it through the Office 365 APP Waffle, or by simply typing https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/apps into your browser's address bar.

2. The menu bar may be collapsed.  If so, click on the three lines to expand it.

3. Click on Apps.

If you haven't already loaded the apps into your workspace, you will have to do that first.  Accessing Power BI Apps

4. Click on the Supply Chain App  Tile to open and see the available options.

Let's look at one of the tiles to see what you might see.  

4.1. Above the report name, you will see when the information was refreshed.

4.2. When you click on the report, you are taken into the details. In this particular report, we have filtered to show everything for site 0432.

For Spirit, your site number is 0924.

4.3. You can see the breakdown of Open POs that are waiting on processing by the buyer.

5. The Other App that is available is the Supply Chain Site Level Metrics.

These are more specifically related to inventory management at the site level.

5.1. One of the options that is not readily available through the ATS Reporting Server is the WORKORDER Bin Part allocation.

If you need more information on how to Navigate or filter in Power BI, please see the Power BI manual in the Wiki. https://knowledge.efactorypro.com/m/65504

Your Supply Chain Program Manager will tell you which of these Reports will be useful for your site.
