Oracle Depot Repair Information Discovery Plus

This chapter covers the following topics:

Overview

You can use Oracle Depot Repair Information Discovery Plus to search and filter the most critical service data in a single location and drill down to get more detailed information enabling you to take action using that information. As a service manager or a service technician, you can access the Repair Orders Dashboard. If you are a claims manager or a claims administrator, then you can access the Supplier Warranty Claims Dashboard. You use these dashboards to review and analyze data using key Performance Indicators (KPIs), performance evaluation metrics, charts, graphs, and tables.

You can search using Oracle Depot Repair dashboard pages and Endeca Information Discovery (EID) design tools. These pages are hosted in an EID environment, and called from new container pages in EBS.
