Many organizations are excited about the new preview features in Oracle SCM Analytics 26R1.But here’s the real question:
Will these features actually solve your business problems… or just add more dashboards?
After reviewing the latest capabilities, one thing is clear:
These features are not just “new reports” — they are answers to real operational blind spots.
Here are the kinds of questions leaders can finally start answering:
Inventory & Operations
What is sitting idle in my warehouse (FSN, Aging)?
Are we carrying too much inventory or not enough?
How efficient are our inventory turns?
Procurement & Spend
How many purchase orders are stuck in change cycles?
What are we actually spending — and where?
Are we receiving goods but not invoicing them?
Logistics & Cost
What are our true shipping costs by product and region?
Where are fulfillment delays happening?
Finance & Margins
What is our projected gross margin before orders are fulfilled?
Where are cost variances happening in manufacturing?
Sustainability
What is our real carbon footprint across Scope 1, 2, and 3?
Contracts & Sales
Which contracts are underutilized or expiring soon?
Which orders are stuck in draft or pending approval?
But here’s the catch…
Just enabling preview features won’t automatically deliver value.
Most organizations still struggle with:
Connecting insights across modules
Translating data into decisions
Driving adoption beyond dashboards
The real opportunity:
These features give you early access to insights — but the real advantage comes when you:
Align them to business pain points
Integrate them into decision workflows
Build a unified view across ERP and SCM
At CLODAIN, we see this every day:
The gap is not data availability — it’s actionable intelligence.
