Who can use this function? The function is available to CargoON and Trans for Forwarders users who have purchased a supplementary product: Business Intelligence reports. Reports are visible to selected users specified by the company requesting access. Learn more about BI reports. |
Based on the data from the Freights Overview report:
- you will receive a general summary of your company's overall activity in the Freights module on the Trans.eu Platform,
- you will check the time and directions in which your company operates more efficiently,
- you will check which of your employees are the most effective,
- you will analyze which of the subcontractors you work with most often and check the cooperation results.
Navigation in the Freights Overview report
To access the Freights Overview report, click on the BI reports module.
The report consists of 4 main sections:
- Freights Overview chart - displays the number of published and accepted freights.
- Top 5 directions pie charts - show the directions with the highest activity.
- Employees dashboard - indicates the most active and efficient employees.
- Carriers activity section - shows your cooperation with carriers.
Freights overview
The chart displays the number of published and accepted freights from the past 12 months.
By using the Freight option, you can specify the range of data presented:
- responses - freights that the carrier responded to, for example, by asking a question on the messenger.
- negotiations - freights for which negotiations were held,
- acceptance - accepted freights.
You will see how many freights have been published on the Platform in individual months and which of them have been accepted by carriers.
The line on the chart represents the percentage of accepted freights, those with responses or those under negotiations (depending on the choice of parameters).
This allows you to quickly identify:
- when your company operates more effectively,
- when your employees are most efficient.
When you hover over a selected bar, you can see a window with information about the number of published freights.
Top 5 Directions
The information displayed on the pie charts allows you to identify the top 5 most attractive directions in a given period. The first chart (Total freights per Top directions) shows the number of published freights, while the second chart (Accepted freights per Top 5 directions) shows the number of formal transactions (concluded on the Platform).
You can increase or decrease the number of directions displayed using the Show top N slider.
After hovering the cursor over the chart, you will see a window with detailed information.
If you choose to filter the data by employees, you will find out which employees are responsible for specific directions and where they demonstrate the highest activity (number of published freights) and efficiency (number of formally concluded transactions).
Employees
The Employees section will provide you with information about the most engaged and effective employees. With a clear data visualization, you can easily compare their results. We depicted the employees with circles.
The size of the circle represents the number of freight offers published by the employee on the platform.
The darker the color, the more formal transactions the employee has concluded.
When you hover over an employee's circle, you will see more detailed information.
By filtering the report by direction, you will see where employees are most effective and which directions require more attention.
Carrier activity
With the Carrier activity panel, you can perform a similar analysis as in the Employees section, assessing the activity and effectiveness of your subcontractors.
In the bar chart, the celadon color indicates the freights that carriers responded to, the navy blue indicates those under negotiation.
If you select Freights with acceptance, you will only see results for accepted freights.
With this panel, you can easily define:
- which subcontractors your company prefers to work with,
- which subcontractors you address the most offers to,
- which subcontractors are most willing to cooperate with you.
With filters you can analyze:
- cooperation with subcontractors on specific directions (on which directions the subcontractor is most active and effective),
- cooperation between subcontractors and specific employees (with which subcontractors employees most willingly establish or want to establish cooperation).
You can also present this information in the context of specific directions.
Filtering
Click on the filter symbol in the right column to open the Freights Overview report filter settings.
In the filter settings, you can:
- select filtering by the Choose calendar parameter: by Unloading date or Publication date of the freight;
