It tracks unique products (GTINs) and recipients, while interactive areas and bar charts allow deeper analysis by time or recipient. Users can filter by date range and recipient to refine insights, with drill-down and reset options for dynamic exploration. All data adjusts based on selected filters for accurate, real-time reporting.

FAQ

What is the scope of this dashboard from a product perspective?

Limited to Core and GDSN.

 

How far back does the data go?

All of 2024.

 

How often does the data refresh?

Daily!

 

Can we share screenshots of this dashboard?

Left to your own discretion. The aim is to make this dashboard external facing in Q2 2025, so if it helps drive better conversations, by all means, share what you think is beneficial.

 

Should we ever see a median readiness of 100% if the average readiness is lower than that?

Yes, median readiness can be lower than the average because it’s based on the “middle” readiness value of a dataset for odd dataset counts and the average of the two “middle” values for even dataset counts.

  • Odd recipient example: if a supplier has 5 recipients and we arrange the readiness in ascending order, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, the median is 40%.
  • Even recipient example: if a supplier has 6 recipients and we arrange the readiness in ascending order, 20%, 30%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 60%, the median is (40+45)/2 = 42.5%.

 

Why did we choose to showcase median readiness?

It helps in understanding the distribution of readiness datasets quickly. It’s a complementary metric to average readiness.

 

If there are products that are active in an account but not linked to any recipients, how would that affect the dashboard?

The products would show up in active product counts, but they would not be reflected in Total Intended Coverage or Total Intended Recipients metrics.
