Metrics and filters

 

Metrics

Two metrics to analyze your time-to-market performance:

  • Time-to-enrich: the average amount of time spent from the creation of the product to the first 100% completeness
  • Number of enriched products: total number of products enriched over the defined period of time   

 

Time period 

You can define the time frame you want to display for your analysis.  
 

Dimensions

You can analyze the selected metric by grouping it through entities: Families, Categories, and Products.

  • Family: how you have defined completeness for products according to a set of required Attributes to be enriched
  • Category: how you have organized and classified your products in Akeneo PIM
  • Product: the entity you sell in the end

Also, you can go deeper into your analysis through the channels and the locales:

  • All: select All Channels or All Locales to get a broad overview of your product catalog across the board
  • At Least one: choose At least one Channel or At least one Locale
  • Choose a specific channel or locale for focused insights in a particular area   
     

   
 

Export

Based on the filters defined on the control panel (Dimensions and Time period), you can export the data for all the displayed metrics. Once you click on “Download report”, a snapshot of the graph and an XLXS file are downloaded in your browser, and you can access the data related to the control panel configuration.

 

Dashboard and table visualization

 

Let’s analyze the capabilities available through the dashboard and the table visualization.

 

Industry Benchmark

Industry Benchmark allows you to compare the time spent to enrich your products to your industry's peers, thanks to internal data gathered anonymously.

 

As a company, you might not access this feature as you're not part of a representative industry according to fixed quotas. We aim to share qualitative data based on the number of companies in a specific industry.

 

 

Dashboard

The caption summarizes the data defined in the configuration panel and is displayed in the graph below.

Legend

Hover over the chart to display a pop-up that displays details about the data you have selected.

 

Table

When you group the table results by Family, you can use the search bar to find a specific family. 

The table rows are clickable and allow updating the chart above with your chosen data set.

All the data before 15th December 2022 is unavailable as we started tracking the usage at this time. This condition is the same for all products created before this period.
