Accolent ERP includes several KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) that deliver graphical visualization dashboards for important performance metrics. All the data is summarized as of the end-of-business on the prior day and cached to improve performance. The inventory dashboard shows the (1) value of the inventory as of Today and as of Last Month, (2) value of the inventory as of Today broken down by warehouse, (3) changes in the inventory value by month for the current partial month and the previous 11 full calendar months, (4) top 10 sales transactions over the last 30 days, and (5) top 10 POs over the last 30 days
