Taulia Analytics dashboards aggregate and analyze millions of supplier transactions, from more than 600,000 suppliers, conducted on the Taulia portal since 2009. The dashboards provide immediately usable data to customers, without going through data mapping and cleansing. Taulia Analytics dashboards leverage buyer-provided network data and combine it with third-party data providing firmographics and other information. The dashboards leverage AI-powered prediction models which can accurately predict supplier behavior. 

The analytics dashboards provide customers with business trends while helping companies set goals, compare themselves to industry averages, and streamline their supply chains. The dashboards enable businesses to monitor performance and explore the implications of strategic working capital decisions by leveraging historical, industry, and real-time data. Artificial Intelligence (AI) gives buyers a far more detailed understanding of the potential benefits of working capital strategies, and of how different techniques can be deployed to achieve the company’s goals. 

The flexible Taulia Analytics dashboards let customers examine their entire supply chains, groups of suppliers, or a single supplier, and help customers:

• Make data-driven decisions with predictive insights - Optimize your working capital and play out different scenarios without the risks involved with actually performing the changes. Predict which invoices suppliers will choose to accelerate under a range of different conditions or extend the cash forecasting process all the way down to the purchase order level, providing a clearer view of supplier health and the impact that different actions could have on the company’s supply chain.
• Evolve your working capital program and meet objectives with clear next steps - Gain a holistic view of your working capital program to be proactive in improvement with actionable insights.
• Benchmark against peers in order to be a business supplier wants to sell to - Become more profitable by better understanding suppliers and larger industry trends with the most comprehensive look available at payment trends across numerous industries. Make actionable decisions on how to strengthen supply chains and increase efficiency.
• Meet company cash-related objectives, goals, and targets - Realize cash opportunities to optimize working capital, generate yields, and ensure supply chain strength.
• Track and monitor program performance - Track statistics on supplier data and transactions and understand dynamics in real time. 
• Filter across business units and drill down to specifics - Monitor payables across business units to optimize cash outflows and discount yield.

Quantify the impact changes in spend, supplier payment terms, and payment issuance are having on your working capital.

On this page, you will find the below information boxes: 

• Beginning payable - Total Payable on the first day of the filtered range. Includes invoices that were approved before the first day of the filtered range but haven’t yet been paid as of the first day of the filtered range (based on buyer payment date)
• Invoices Confirmed - Invoice total for all approved invoices (whether open or paid). Includes all invoices that were approved within the filtered range
• Invoices Paid - Sum of paid invoices where due. Includes invoices that were approved before or on the last day of the filtered range and were paid within the filtered range (based on buyer payment date)
• Ending Payable - Total Payable on the final day of the filtered range. Includes invoices that were approved before or on the last day of the filtered range but haven’t yet been paid as of the last day of the filtered range (based on buyer payment date)
• Payables Trend - Accumulative change to working capital in the filtered range. Contributions grouped by changes in invoice terms and spend
• Indicative Monthly DPO - Calculated by averaging the open payables at the beginning of the month and the open payables at the end of the month, multiplied by 30 days, divided by monthly spending. COGS is estimated as the spend invoiced during the period (assuming the beginning and ending inventory remains unchanged).
• Payables Impact by Supplier - A list of all suppliers with spend within the filtered range. Provides beginning and ending spend, terms, outstanding payables, and the change in payables over the filtered range for each supplier, calculated based on the invoice date and due date. Can be used to understand the suppliers with the largest impact on working capital over a period of time.
• Payables Impact by Document - List of invoices paid before or after the invoice due date by the buyer. This report can be used to understand the impact on working capital resulting from actual payment behavior. Invoices paid early as a result of traditional discount terms or dynamic discounting are included.

Note: Accelerated SCF invoices are not included because third-party funding has no impact on the buyer’s working capital. Report includes details at the invoice level, for invoices paid (based on buyer payment date) within the filtered range. Excludes documents paid on the due date because they have no impact on the balance sheet.

Buyer provides their suppliers’ spend file, maximum allowed funding budget, and optionally maximum APR percentage for funding early payments (24% by default). Data includes business cases from the last 1 year.
After selecting the Buyer Name and corresponding Spend File from the filters, the user can interactively configure the following filters:

• Buyer APR Floor - The minimum APR percentage the buyer is willing to fund. The default value is 6%.
• Buyer Funding Percent - Percentage of the maximum allowed funding budget (provided by the buyer) the buyer is willing to use. The default value is 100%.
• Term Extension Adoption - Used in calculating the marginal difference between the baseline case (No Term Extension if the filter is set to 0) and target case (With Term Extension if the filter is set to 100). Impacted fields include funding assets required, spending accelerated, gross outreach yield, working capital released, and liquidity demand. The default value is 100%.

Key Definitions
Using suppliers’ spend file, Tualia runs predictive scenarios to assess whether suppliers will choose to accelerate payments under different conditions. The machine learning models take into account dozens of attributes to determine the likelihood of supplier acceptance of early payments at each APR level. The predictive models can provide insight into the yield from early payments with varying rates and tenors and help find the APR that best balances supplier adoption levels against the rate of return.

To determine the most appropriate APR to offer suppliers, the target APR is selected based on the optimum net yield (calculated as the maximum product of APR and early payment adoption probability) for each supplier. The APR percentage and the probability of acceptance that correspond to the maximum net yield are selected as the target APR for each supplier. In the case that the target APR is lower than the Buyer APR Floor value (selected by the user from the dashboard filter), the APR percentage and the probability of acceptance that corresponds to the Buyer APR Floor or (SCF Floor if it is lower than the Buyer APR Floor value) is selected as the target APR instead. SCF Floor is calculated as LIBOR + margin.
 
All early payments with a target APR at or above the buyer APR floor (up to the maximum funding APR limit) will be paid by Treasury leveraging Dynamic Discounting (if maximum buyer funding limit is reached, the remaining early payments with a target APR at or above SCF floor will be funded by a third party). Any early payments with a target APR below the Buyer APR Floor and at or above the SCF floor will be funded by a third party.

Scenario Description

• No Terms Extensions - This scenario assumes no adjustment to current payment terms.
• Supplier Top Quartile DSO respecting Late Payment Directives - This scenario details the Working Capital impact and supplier adoption metrics if payment terms for each supplier are set at the 75th percentile of DSO for each supplier's industry. If the resulting payment term exceeds a national late payment directive for the supplier's country, the payment term will be adjusted to the maximum allowable term for that jurisdiction.
• Harmonized Terms - This scenario details the Working Capital impact and supplier adoption metrics if suppliers are put into the harmonized buckets (45, 60, 90 days) above their median DSO. If the resulting payment term exceeds a national late payment Directive for the supplier's country, the payment term will be adjusted to the maximum allowable term for that jurisdiction. 
• Custom - This scenario details the Working Capital impact and supplier adoption metrics if payment terms for each supplier are set according to a custom plan.
