Embedded reporting is the combination of business intelligence (BI) dashboards and analytics tools within CargoWise. This enables logistics personnel to acquire valuable insights without having to switch between external BI applications or spreadsheets. 

This approach decreases data analysis delays, eliminates duplicate operations, and improves supply chain visibility. Teams may monitor KPIs in real time, track compliance indicators, and discover process obstacles right from the CargoWise interface. Embedded reporting enables decision-makers at all levels to act faster using consistent and up-to-date data.
