However, if a piece of the data source is inaccurate, a change would have to be made. At times, making these changes isn’t easy and often tedious. For instance, the data source would have to be downloaded, updated on the existing system, and re-uploaded onto the platform to run analytics. While there are ways to update data sources on certain platforms, Infoveave’s NGauge forms provision helps users update data sources within a few seconds using a form-like structure with related fields.
On the Infoveave platform, a NGauge form can be created using the measures and dimensions used in the original data source. This automatically triggers an update on the data source that an additional column needs to be added. However, before getting there, we need to learn how to set up a NGauge form.
As mentioned, the NGauge form is dependent on the measures of the data source. Hence, it is crucial not to make an error in any of the rows or columns. Once the data source has been added, a NGauge form can be generated. The NGauge form generated is generated as a list view as the original data source is reflected.
Additional fields can be added if need be and those additional fields will reflect on the list view of the form. Therefore, if something has been missed, entries can be made on the form. These entries will be reflected onto the original data source which will eventually reflect on the dashboard that has been created.
NGauge forms are typically used as CRM solutions for tracking and measuring sales targets. Since it provides a list view and dashboards/reports can be created using these forms, sales managers find good value from these forms.
Another use case is on the shop floor of a factory or a manufacturing plant. Typically, the process followed on the shop floor involves the line operator making sampling and quality control entries on a piece of paper. While this documentation technique has been around for several decades, digitization using a NGauge form would save time and capture data accurately, save time that would be spent in updating the data source, and formulate dashboards with effective and quantifiable insights.
