Report Purpose

The Multi-Impact Report is a convenient tool which can show any kind of environmental impacts from a Product Group you need to know in one place.

Run Multi-Impact Report

  1. From the home page, go to Makersite Apps > Business > Pivot Manager > Multi-Impact Report.

  2. Set the Product field to the Product Group the report will be based on.

  3. Select the impacts you want to assess in the report.

  4. Optionally, select QA Mode if you want Makersite to run a data quality check and displays a status message. If you select this option, Makersite won't run the full report.

  5. Optionally, select the Full Model checkbox. When left blank, the report only considers the datasets directly in the imported BOM. When selected, the report will extend the assessment to additional datasets associated with any attached IPC files and BOMs.

  1. Optionally, select Run in the background and save. In this case, your report will be queued and you will get an e-mail with a link once it's ready.

  2. Once the Product and Impacts are set, click Create in the bottom right corner of the Information and Tools panel.

Your report loads on the page. The Processes are shown in the report as grey rows. Items with no impacts are marked in red, indicating a data problem.
