Joint Reports

Joint reports combine data from multiple data sources (e.g. purchase orders and acknowledgment data) into a single report, enabling complex reporting and cross-functional insights. For example, A joint report might combine - Forecast data from the brand owner, PO and acknowledgment data from the supplier, Batch production data from the CMO, shipping data from the logistics provider. This enables the brand owner to see whether demand was met on time and if not, where the bottleneck occurred - forecasting, ordering, manufacturing, or shipping. The following joint reports are available:
