Dashboard indicators are structured into grids, charts and boxes and provide information regarding metal prices, payments, customer balances, job orders, etc. The Dashboard is comprised of the following seven grids and charts:
Market prices
The Market prices grid displays the latest market prices available in PIRO Fusion for pure metals, which are handled as current market prices. Market prices are used to calculate the current prices of item types having market based pricing set up and which include metals. Next to the metal prices, the arrow icons indicate whether the metal price has increased () or decreased (
).
Metal prices can be set up and managed from the Inventory module’s Metal prices form.
The icon can be used to bring up the Market prices’ Settings form, containing information about the dates of the available market prices. Navigating back to the Market prices grid can be done using the
button.
Jobs in workstations
This list displays information about the number of job orders currently being handled in particular work areas. Work areas represent physical workstations and can be set up from the Service tools menu. When creating a new service type, the work area where the service is being processed or performed must also be specified. Based on the job orders’ current service, this information is then used to generate the Jobs in workstations list.
Messages
Aging list
The Aging list shows the total amount from unpaid invoices, or total remaining balance, per customer.
The Aging list includes a Settings form, accessible using the icon, which allows adjusting the number of results displayed in the list. The list can be set to display the Top 10 customers and their invoice balances, or it can show the information for all customers.
Payments
The Payments table contains information about the customers’ payments, which can be filtered based on a time interval. The following information is displayed: the customer, the payment date, payment amount and the payment type. Payments can also be made in installments, until the total value of the invoice is paid. As such, the Payments list may contains multiple entries for the same customer.
The Payments grid is limited to 4 rows per page, and customer payments may be displayed on multiple pages. Navigating between pages can be done using the arrows from the bottom of the table.
The Payments grid includes a Settings form, accessible using the icon. The form allows specifying the time interval of the payment report, so that the payment data is retrieved from this period.
