Analytics

SAP Cloud ALM for Implementation offers multiple options to cover diverse monitoring and reporting needs of different roles and team members. The integrated analytics functionality arches over project management, task management, process management, change and deploy management and test management applications. Each application sends change events to the Analytical framework which processes those events and turns into meaningful information and insights in form of dashboards and reports which help the team members in making timely decisions backed by data.

These reports are to be found within the 3 tiles:

1. Overview Page: A go-to place for you if you need to get a high-level overview of your project's performance. It contains various cards which and at the same time it provides connectivity to other applications for a faster drill down.

2. Analytics Overview: Analytics Overview' is a container for detailed standalone analytical pages which offer deeper insights and drill downs through reports, historical charts, and traceability matrix charts specific to a given project.

3. Cross Project Overview: This is a container for standalone analytical pages that offer a progress overview at a program level or for a release where multiple projects are aggregated.

For basic “How-To” instructions on how to use the tool, you should refer to the in-app help within SAP Cloud ALM or visit -> Help Portal (link)
