Compare Transport

The Compare Transport screen is displayed only when the Comparison Category field is set to Compare Transport.

You can use these sub-panels on the Compare Transport screen:

  • Alerts Count: To view the number of resources of a given class that have at least one alert in the first X periods. X is presented by a variable called Exception Queries Nb Buckets and by default it is equals 8. Each alert is represented by two bar charts to view and compare production alerts count, one blue bar representing Scenario 1 value and one purple bar representing Scenario 2 value. The supported transport alerts are as follows:
    • Expedited Shipments Alerts
    • Maximum Shipments TU Alerts
    • Maximum Shipments Out TU Alerts
    • Maximum Receipts In TU Alerts
    • Maximum Outbound TU Alerts
    • Maximum Inbound TU Alerts
    • Maximum In And Outbound TU Alerts
  • Key Values: To view and compare sales key values presented within the grid, the comparison results are displayed with the value assessment indicator.

    The Key Values panel comprises of these groups:

    • Alerts Key Values where the following properties are displayed:
      • Expedited shipments
      • Excess shipments tu
      • Excess shipments out tu
      • Excess receipts in tu
      • Excess outbound tu
      • Excess inbound tu
      • Excess in and outbound tu
    • Other Key Values where the following properties are displayed:
      • Carbon weight
      • Shipments
      • Receipts
      • Shipments tu

You can sort the values within each group by sorting each column in the grid. By default, the properties are sorted by Difference % from highest value to lowest value.

Note: 
  • If the Show Only Values With Differences switch is enabled, the Key values or KPIs that differ between scenario 1 and scenario 2 are displayed in the Key Values section. Consequently, the values are updated in the grid and Alerts count chart.
  • If the Show Only Values With Differences switch is disabled, all Key values or KPIs are displayed regardless of differences between both scenarios. Consequently, the values are updated in the grid and Alerts count chart.
  • If you click the Scenario 1 Details or Scenario 2 Details option, the 8. Key Value & KPI Review multi-panel plansheet is displayed in a new tab.
  • If you click the Refresh option, the values displayed in the Comparison screen are updated.

You can use the value assessment indicator for two sub-panels, which is presented by an arrow and is interpreted as follows:

  • A red arrow headed up means scenario 2 value has increased compared to scenario 1 value and a higher value has a bad impact on the supply plan.
  • A red arrow headed down means scenario 2 value has decreased compared to scenario 1 value and a lower value has a bad impact on the supply plan.
  • A green arrow headed up means scenario 2 value has increased compared to scenario 1 value and a higher value has a good impact on the supply plan.
  • A green arrow headed down means scenario 2 value has decreased compared to scenario 1 value and a lower value has a good impact on the supply plan.
  • A grey arrow headed up means scenario 2 value has increased compared to scenario 1 value and a higher value has a neutral impact on the supply plan.
  • A grey arrow headed down means scenario 2 value has decreased compared to scenario 1 value and a lower value has a neutral impact on the supply plan.
  • The arrow is displayed for values where the difference is zero.
