About the Dashboard
To display the Dashboard, select . The Dashboard is displayed below the Planning Board. If the Dashboard is displayed when you exit Infor Production Scheduling, then it is automatically displayed when you restart Infor Production Scheduling.
The Dashboard displays Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). For example, you can use KPIs to keep track of downtime on resources.
The Dashboard shows the KPI names and their values per week. The current schedule's KPIs are compared with a baseline. When you open the dashboard, a baseline is automatically created as a snapshot. You can manually create snapshots.
About the KPIs
These examples describe KPIs:
- Production cost: this value is calculated from the settings that are defined in the Resource Groups tab of the Process Step Entry dialog box.
- Production time: if the value has decreased since the last snapshot, then the difference is displayed in green. If the value has increased since the last snapshot, then the difference is displayed in red.
- Two KPIs can help you

- Resource conflicts
- Late orders
These background colors are displayed for the "late orders" KPI:
