Master Data Management

View Charts

The dashboards included withMDM provide analytics, metrics, and reporting for:

  • Average time taken to complete active requests by governance elements
  • Predictive analytics based on active requests indicating the amount of time it may take to complete a Business Process, Scenario or Role that are in process.
  • All requests, including archived requests, created vs completed, so that analysis of the request backlog can occur.
  • SLA performance analytics to see how separate categories and organizations are performing.

Active requests have a status of Posted, Posted with Errors, Posting Started or Request in Process.

Users assigned to the PowerUser, PowerDesigner and ReadOnly Web App groups can access charts for MDM.

Some chart allows the user to drill down to data in the level below it in the hierarchy to view increasingly more specific data.

The View Data icon to the right of a chart name opens a pane that displays the alternate text descriptions of chart data in a table. If a chart has a legend, click a label in the legend to hide or show that label’s section in the chart.

Hover a cursor over each section of a bar to view the field count or percentage.

If a chart is 3D, a 3D Controls icon is available to adjust the chart angles.

An Administrator can set the number of prior weeks to display on the count metrics charts. Refer to Set Preceding Weeks Count for Dashboards for more information.

Duration Metrics – Displays the average duration of active requests by category, and provides drill-down access to duration metrics for the child elements (business process, scenario and roles) so that an organization can easily know how long it takes to execute each governance element:

Count Metrics – Displays the number of all requests, including archived requests, created vs. completed by category so that an organization can analyze the backlog of requests. The metrics can assist with decisions about resource allocation and analysis of potential business process issues:

Category SLA Percent On Time – Displays overall comparisons by category of how well organizations are adhering to the agreed upon SLAs. The charts provided drill-down access to display metrics for SLAs for active requests for all business processes, scenarios and roles so the detail of potential bottlenecks in processing requests can be identified:

Business Process Predictive – Displays overall business process comparison of completion dates from the average running business process for all active requests. This dashboard shows based on predictions which processes will be the most and least performing.

Request Predictive – Displays an estimate of when a request will be completed, based on prior average request processing for all active requests..

Request by Category – Displays a count of the current active requests by status for each category.
