AWS has announced the general availability of AWS Supply Chain Analytics powered by Amazon QuickSight. This new feature allows you to build custom report dashboards using your data in AWS Supply Chain. With this feature, your business analysts or supply chain managers can perform custom analyses, visualize data, and gain actionable insights for your supply chain management operations. AWS Supply Chain Analytics leverages the AWS Supply Chain data lake and provides Amazon QuickSight embedded authoring tools directly into the AWS Supply Chain user interface. This integration provides you with a unified and configurable experience for creating custom insights, metrics, and key performance indicators (KPIs) for your operational analytics. In addition, AWS Supply Chain Analytics provides prebuilt dashboards that you can use as-is or modify based on your needs. At launch, you will have the following prebuilt dashboards: Plan-Over-Plan Variance and Seasonality Analytics. To enable AWS Supply Chain Analytics, navigate to Settings, then select Organizations and choose Analytics. Here, you can Enable data access for Analytics. You can then edit existing roles or create a new role with analytics access. Once this feature is enabled, you can access the AWS Supply Chain Analytics feature by selecting either the Connecting to Analytics card or Analytics on the left navigation menu. From here, you have an embedded Amazon QuickSight interface ready for you to use. To get started, navigate to Prebuilt Dashboards. Then, select the prebuilt dashboards you need in the Supply Chain Function dropdown list. AWS Supply Chain Analytics will prepare all the datasets, analyses, and even a dashboard for you. Select Add to begin. Then, navigate to the dashboard page, and you can see the results. You can also share this dashboard with your team, which improves the collaboration aspect. If you need to include other datasets to build a custom dashboard, you can navigate to Datasets and select New dataset. Here, you have the AWS Supply Chain data lake as an existing dataset for you to use. Select Create dataset. Then, you can select a table that you need to include in your analysis. On the Data section, you can see all available fields. All datasets that start with asc_ are generated by AWS Supply Chain, such as data from Demand Planning, Insights, Supply Planning, and others. You can also find all the datasets you have ingested into AWS Supply Chain. One thing to note here is if you have not ingested data into AWS Supply Chain Data Lake, you need to ingest data before using AWS Supply Chain Analytics. At this stage, you can start your analysis. AWS Supply Chain Analytics is now generally available in all regions where AWS Supply Chain is offered.
