End To End Results

This page shows more details about the costs shown on the Cost To Serve Report page. It gives a visualization of how different products flow from Suppliers/Productions through Warehouses to Customers.

You can select a level (Supplier/Production/Warehouse/Customer) and then Locations or Facilities/Customers to show how products flow in the supply chain.

  • If you select a Customer you will see all the Facilities which are in the supply chain of that Customer.

  • If you select a Facility you will see all the Customers which have that Facility in their supply chain, as well as all the other Facilities which are connected to the originally selected Facility in order to supply the before mentioned Customers.

For more details please see the Select Level section below.

Filters on End-to-End Page

Select Level

Before visualizing supply chains on the map, you have to choose the filter level to work with. You can select from Customers, Suppliers, Productions, and Warehouses levels.

Locations or Production Facilities/Warehouses/Customers on another level will be visualized on the map and in the table only if they are part of the supply chain of the selected ones.

If you select a Level, the Filters of that level will be active on the side panel, under the Select Level

Supplier/Production/Warehouse/Customer Filter

The type of this filter side panel depends on the selected level which can be Supplier/Production/Warehouse/Customer. For example, if the selected level is the Customer level, this filter contains all the customers defined in the input data.

End-to-End flow

On this map you can visualize all the routes going through the selected Supplier, Production Facilities, Warehouses or going to the selected Customer.

For instance, when Customer level and one Customer (namely Budapest) are selected, the map looks as follows:

../../../_images/E2E_Map.png

By pointing the cursor on one of the nodes a tooltip can be shown with the most important info of that location: the name of the location, the volume, and the type of the node.

  • If you select a Customer on the filter side panel you will see all the Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses which are in the supply chain of that Customer.

  • If you select Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses you will see all the Customers which have that Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses in their supply chain, and all the other Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses which are connected to the originally selected Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses in order to supply the before mentioned Customers.

Overview of cost breakdown for all demand, by route

Basically, this overview shows the same data as the table Overview of cost breakdown for all demand on the Cost To Serve Results page. However, the data are now broken down by the route through which it flows through the network. This allows you to see where and how the costs to serve are incurred.

In this table you can see that every line with cost has an origin and a destination. If the origin and the destination are the same, the cost is incurred at that location (such as supply cost, handling cost, production cost). If the origin and the destination are different, the cost is incurred between the two locations (such as primary cost, secondary cost, inter resource cost).

  • If you select a Customer on the filter side panel you will see all the Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses which are in the supply chain of that Customer.

  • If you select Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses you will see all the Customers which have that Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses in their supply chain, as well as all the other Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses which are connected to the originally selected Suppliers/Productions/Warehouses in order to supply the before mentioned Customers.

The resulting table looks as follows:

../../../_images/E2E_Overview.png

The level number depends on the locations types: a supplier has level 1 and the customer location is the last level. (This order disappears when you are comparing multiple scenarios/cases.)

You can also make the table full screen for better visibility, or download it into a file.
