System Guide

The Calidus Vision system combines several components:

• Dashboard - Simple queries and tabular summaries, designed to be used within a Warehouse to help improve productivity.
• Analytics - Queries, Graphs, Enquiries and summary screens providing a deeper analysis of the current warehouse operation. This component includes all the functionality of the Dashboard, plus additional 'deep dive' analysis and historical enquiries.
• Monitor - screens designed to allow users to gain visibility of potential errors within the systems monitored by Vision, within a reasonable timescale.

Additionally, Calidus Vision is designed to mine data from several systems and display screens associated to them within the user interface. To that end, each user is allocated a group of systems that they can access. Currently those systems are:

• Calidus 3PL-Mobile (WCS)
• Calidus 3PL (WMS 7.70)
• Admin Functions

There are plans to expand Vision to cover all Calidus products - please see the product roadmap for details. Additionally, Calidus Vision can be expanded to work with external non-OBS systems.

The basic operation of the components are the same.
