PROJECT DETAILS

The Project Details page provides a comprehensive view of a specific project, allowing engineers to manage parts, view sourcing status, and analyze costs.

Project Details

Header Information

  • Project Name: The name of the project (e.g., Project77).
  • Version: The current version of the project (e.g., Version 1).

Tabs

The page is divided into three main tabs:

  1. Source Board: Provides visual analytics and charts to assess project data distribution and trends.
  2. Supply Sense: Shows detailed part information and sourcing status.
  3. Compare: Allows side-by-side comparison of different costing scenarios or project versions.

Source Board

The Source Board tab provides an analytical view of the project data through visual charts and tables. This helps engineers quickly assess the distribution of parts, sourcing strategy, cost breakdown, and potential risks.

Source Board Analysis

Analysis

The Analysis section features interactive charts and tables that provide a comprehensive overview of the project:

  • Project Overview: A summary of high-level project metrics displayed as KPI cards at the top of the page, including:
    • Completion %: The overall project completion percentage (e.g., 100%).
    • Total Parts: The total number of parts in the project (e.g., 1).
    • Closed Parts: The number of parts that have been closed/finalized (e.g., 1).
    • Total Cost: The aggregated total cost across the project (e.g., 39).
  • Currency Distribution: A donut chart displaying the cost distribution broken down by currency, giving a clear view of multi-currency spend across the project (e.g., 38.76 USD).
  • Key Vendors: A table listing the primary vendors involved in the project, showing each vendor's name, their total contribution by value, and the count of parts they supply (e.g., Newark — Value: 39, Count: 1).
  • Project History and Considerations: A panel displaying key project notifications and history. When no events have been recorded, it shows "No notifications available for this project."
  • Offline vs Online: A bar chart comparing the volume of offline versus online sourcing for the project (e.g., 0 offline, 1 online).
  • Payment Terms: A table showing the payment terms associated with the project, including the term name, value, and percentage (e.g., NULL_PAYMENT_TERM — Value: 38.76).
  • Part / LT: A table displaying parts alongside their lead times (LT). This table may be empty if no lead time data has been recorded.
  • Part Deviation (INR): A table highlighting parts where the considered price deviates from the minimum available price, helping engineers identify cost-saving opportunities. Columns include Part, Deviation (INR), Considered price, Minimum Price, and Minimum Price PO (e.g., deegtfik01 — Deviation: 0, Considered: 1.04, Minimum Price: 1.04, Minimum Price PO: NA).
  • Quantity Diff: A table surfacing discrepancies between required quantities and quantities available or ordered, flagging parts that may need attention. Columns include Part, Supplier Name, Required Qty, Available Qty, and Quantity Diff.

Supply Sense

The Supply Sense tab acts as the central hub for managing the project's bill of materials (BOM). It provides a detailed breakdown of all parts, their current sourcing status, and associated costs. This view enables engineers to track which parts are sourced, identify pending items, and make informed decisions based on supplier data and risk assessments.

Summary Metrics

At the top of the Supply Sense tab, you can see key metrics:

Summary Metrics

  • Parts: Total number of parts in the project (e.g., 1).
  • Sourced: Number of parts that have been sourced (e.g., 1).
  • Unsourced: Number of parts pending sourcing (e.g., 0).
  • Project Cost: Total cost of the project in INR (e.g., ₹ 39).

Clicking on any of the summary metric cards (e.g., Sourced, Unsourced) will filter the data table below to display only the relevant parts matching that category.

Actions

The following action buttons are available in the top-right area of the Supply Sense tab:

  • Refresh: Reloads the latest data for the project.
  • Q-Sourcing: View Q-sourcing stat.
  • Send RFQ: Initiate the Request for Quotation process.
  • Submit: Submit the project for approval.

Data Table

The table lists all parts associated with the project. Key columns include:

Data Table
