White Space dashboard

You can use the White Space dashboard to view a specific customer's purchase history including products purchased, quantity, and amount for a set period. This dashboard also displays suggested product groups to give insight on what product group and possible product promotions to offer a specific customer. Suggested product groups are displayed in the report by likelihood that these will be bought by the customer.

This dashboard can answer these business questions:
  • What types of product does a customer purchase?
  • How much does a customer purchase for each product type?
  • What are the alternative product groups for each product type purchased by a customer?

Report and KPIs

This dashboard contains the White Space report and these KPIs:
  • Observation Period
  • Customer Group

Customer Group and Customer Classification KPIs display the corresponding metrics for the selected customer in the Customer filter.

Currency information is also displayed on the dashboard.
