Upcoming Purchasing Dashboard Enhancements

OIT has moved our Oracle Business Intelligence (OBI) purchasing data to a data warehouse which allows us greater flexibility in creating more robust reports.  As a result of this change, we are in the process of making enhancements to our PO Summary and Payments dashboards.  These dashboard enhancements are expected to be completed in early December.  Changes will include improved drilldown features that match the style of the drilldowns used in our other finance dashboards, additional columns, and additional prompt options such as org parent level/description, invoice type, invoice source, A&E exception reasons, and commodity codes.  The PO Summary Dashboard will offer drilldown options for PO line details or invoice details.  The Payments Dashboard will contain drilldown capabilities that allow you to view the invoice details.  We are working with the Accounting & Reporting Partner Group to test the new dashboards to ensure that we have user feedback incorporated into the functionality. We will communicate additional detail about these enhancements and post updated quick reference guides on the finance website once the enhancements to these dashboards are complete.
