Data Analytics

Overview

The Data Analytics module provides a business intelligence (BI) platform integrated into Easy WMS. It enables users to create custom dashboards with widgets displaying real-time and consolidated warehouse KPIs, share dashboards across teams, and configure metric-driven alarms.

The module is architected around metrics groups (data collection rules), widgets (individual visualizations), and dashboards (composed views). Standard pre-built dashboards are available for Easy WMS, Labor Management, and APS3D.

Key capabilities

  • Real-time and consolidated metric groups (hourly history vs. current snapshot)
  • Widget library: 50+ widget types covering shipping, receiving, inventory, locations, equipment
  • Custom dashboard creation: drag-and-drop widget placement, grouping, and filters
  • Dashboard sharing/publishing: share dashboards to specific user groups or departments
  • Pre-built dashboards: standard dashboards for logistics best practices (Easy WMS, LMS, APS3D)
  • Metric group management: enable/disable updates, change schedule
  • Alarms: configure alerts per widget, delivered in-widget or by email
  • Multi-device: PC, unattended screens (cyclic display), and mobile phones
  • Developer extension: metric groups created via EasyBuilder; dashboards created via SmartUI

Architecture

Data model

Metric groups (definition + update script + frequency + purge period)
    → Metrics (calculated values)
        → Widgets (visualization components)
            → Dashboards (composed views)
                → Published dashboards (shared with user groups)

Metric group types

Type Update frequency Data retention
Consolidated Hours Full history (purged after configured period)
Real-time Minutes Only latest value (no history)

Metric gatherer service: background service that executes update scripts on schedule and handles history purging.

Widget categories (by business process)

Widgets are classified by:

  • Business process: Shipping, Receiving, Locations, Inventory, Labor, etc.
  • Display type: area chart, curve area, stacked area, 100% stacked, tab, trend tab, ring chart, pie chart, bar chart, stacked bar, line chart, curved line, tree map, dynamic table

Real-time widgets display current operational status. Consolidated widgets display historical performance trends.

Standard dashboards per module

Module Available dashboards
Easy WMS Shipping performance, Shipping service level, Shipping statistics, Receiving, Inventory, etc.
Labor Management Productivity, efficiency, utilization per operator/team/shift
APS3D Shuttle utilization, channel occupancy, order throughput

Publishing model

Any user can create personal dashboards. Publishing makes a dashboard available to a specific group of users (appears in their menu). Creators distribute dashboards without others needing to rebuild them.

Configuration

Metric group management (PC - Data Analytics menu)

  • View all metric groups with current schedule and enabled status
  • Enable/disable metric updates per group
  • Change update schedule
  • Metric group definitions require EasyBuilder (developer access)

Dashboard creation and design

  1. Access Dashboards view (Data Analytics menu)
  2. Create new dashboard → enter basic info (name, description)
  3. Enter design mode: select and arrange widgets from catalog
  4. Apply filters and configure groupings
  5. Save and optionally publish to user groups

Alarm configuration

Per widget:

  • Set threshold values for KPI breaches
  • Configure delivery: in-widget alert and/or email
  • Multiple alarms per widget supported

Operations

Dashboard display modes

  • PC: standard interactive dashboard with drill-down and filter capabilities
  • Unattended screen: cyclic display of widgets on large monitors (warehouse floor screens)
  • Mobile phone: responsive widget display for managers on the move

Slotting heat map (cross-module)

When the Slotting module is installed, the warehouse 2D map enables a location heat map showing picking activity intensity. This is powered by Data Analytics metrics for activity per location.

  • labor-management - LMS provides the data for Labor Management standard dashboards
  • aps3d - APS3D shuttle and channel data available as widgets in Data Analytics
  • transactions - Transaction data feeds consolidated metric calculations
  • warehouse-designer - Warehouse 2D heat map (Slotting-powered) visible in Warehouse Designer
