In this post, I will explain how to set up DSO as a KPI in SAP Business ByDesign. DSO or Days Sales Outstanding measures the cash collection efficiency of an organization and is, therefore, of immense interest to CFOs and CEOs. You can choose which colors you wish to use for the display and set ranges for when the colors are used.One of the most important Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) used by businesses is the DSO. You saw how the choices we made in the KPI definition changed the color of the KPI in the examples in the previous figures.
You can add more complexity in setting goals and trends by using the advanced goals and trends area.
For example, with overdue deliveries: fewer are better.
There are two main benefits to using KPIs. SAP provides you with a number of predefined KPI cockpit widgets. KPIs are quantifiable measurements that reflect critical success factors in a company, such as targets for revenue or profit margin.
