Event Management console

The Event Management console (EMC), located under the Preferences menu, acts as Supplier Exchange's homepage. Through the EMC, you can quickly view critical exceptions and the status of your company account. The EMC allows both customers and suppliers to quickly assess the status of their company accounts through viewing shipment, release, and purchase order summaries, including other statistics and critical exceptions. You can then click hyperlinks to view detailed information.

Customizing the Event Management console

As an individual user, you can customize the EMC to display items in a way that better fits your workflow. You can choose which events display as priority items, which events display as category items, and the order in which categories are listed. It is also possible to configure which events display for which product groups as well as allowing you to set associated tolerances. For each product group assigned to an event with a tolerance setting, users select the tolerance permitted before the event displays. If you do not configure the EMC, by default all of the events assigned to your role will display in the category table.

Statistics

The statistics on the EMC console are grouped by data categories: Releases, Purchase Orders, Shipments, Receipts, Problem Reporting, and Billing. The default category is the user-defined Priority Items. Users can select a different category by clicking the category's tab.

Charts

Some information on the EMC can be displayed as a chart. This charting provides a visual representation of the statistics. To view a chart, go to the category header and click View as Chart.
