The Inventory Graphical Dashboard is the catalogue-health pulse of CloudHub. Where the Inventory Hub is the row-level master, the Graphical Dashboard is the summary view across the entire catalogue sliced by marketplace. You use it to spot per-channel stock holes, missing images, broken listings, and team productivity at a glance.

How to open

  1. Click Services.
  2. Open the [Optimise] Inventory Management module.
  3. Click Graphical Dashboard.
The breadcrumb reads Home > Optimise > Inventory Graphical Dashboard.

The seven panels

The dashboard is a 3 by 3 grid of panels. Each panel is a small table summarising one dimension of catalogue health.

Panel 1, Stock Status

A per-marketplace breakdown of stock counts, with one row per marketplace account.
ColumnWhat it counts
MarketplaceThe marketplace and account name. The first row is Common, the master view.
In StockSKUs with positive on-hand quantity.
Out of StockSKUs with quantity zero.
BlockedSKUs the user has flagged Blocked, prevented from pushing to the marketplace.
ErrorSKUs the marketplace rejected (bad EAN, missing required attribute, etc.). The number is a clickable link.
TotalThe sum of the four.
The screenshot example shows Common 50 / 20 / 1 / 3 / 74 with eBay-Marketplace ID 1 and eight Amazon Marketplace accounts mirroring the same numbers because the SKUs are listed identically across the channels. Use case: a high Out of Stock count on Amazon-Marketplace 7 but not on the other Amazon accounts is a localised stockout (perhaps that account is set to a regional warehouse that ran dry). A high Error count on a single channel signals a listing-rule mismatch.

Panel 2, Image Management Status

Per-marketplace count of SKUs with missing images.
ColumnWhat it counts
MarketplaceOne row per marketplace account.
SKU Count of Images MissingCount of SKUs with no main image, secondary image gap, or marketplace-specific image rule violation.
A high count here means SKUs that will either fail to list or list with placeholder images, both of which crater conversion.

Panel 3, Catalogue Creation Today

A leaderboard of users who have created SKUs today, broken down by where they created them.
ColumnWhat it shows
UserFull Name from the user record.
CommonSKUs created in the master view today.
AmazonSKUs created with Amazon listing today.
eBaySKUs created with eBay listing today.
Useful for ops managers to see catalogue-team productivity at a glance.

Panel 4, Catalogue Edits Today

The same shape as Catalogue Creation Today, but counting edits to existing SKUs rather than new creations.

Panel 5, Catalogue with Missing and Error

A per-marketplace breakdown of two categories: SKUs missing required data and SKUs in error state.
ColumnWhat it counts
MarketplaceOne row per marketplace account.
Data MissingSKUs that are present but missing required attribute(s). They will fail validation if pushed as-is.
Error ProductsSKUs that have been pushed and rejected.
The numbers are usually clickable, drilling into a filtered view of the affected SKUs.

Panel 6, eBay Category Count by Marketplace Account

A per-eBay-category SKU count, useful for eBay sellers running on category fee tiers.
ColumnWhat it shows
Category NameThe eBay category.
Category IDeBay’s numeric category ID.
CountNumber of SKUs listed in that category.
If you sell across Toys, Games, Clothing, Dress, Home, and Accessories, this panel tells you the SKU count in each. A category over-concentration is a fee-and-feedback risk; a category under-population is a missed-listing risk.

Panel 7, SKU Split

A summary of the catalogue split by SKU Type, with on-hand and out-of-stock counts.
ColumnWhat it counts
SKU SplitThe SKU type: Master SKU, Collection SKU, Bundle SKU.
With QuantityCount of SKUs of that type with positive stock.
Out of StockCount with zero stock.
TotalThe sum.
Useful for understanding catalogue composition. If 70% of your active rows are Bundle SKUs, your stock health is heavily dependent on component availability and you need to watch the Bundle Quantity behaviour closely.

Interpreting the dashboard, three patterns

Pattern 1, “Listing rule violation on one marketplace”

You see Stock Status with Error count of 5 on Amazon-Marketplace 3 but zero on the other Amazon accounts. That is a listing-rule mismatch specific to that marketplace’s region (a tax attribute, a hazmat declaration, an EU-only required field). Click the 5 to drill in, fix the rule on those rows, and re-push.

Pattern 2, “Image debt”

Image Management Status shows 52 SKUs missing images on Common and the same number propagated across all marketplaces. That is a master-record image gap. Open the Inventory Hub and filter to those SKUs to upload images. Once the master gets the images, every channel gets them.

Pattern 3, “Productivity gap”

Catalogue Creation Today shows three users active. If only one user has Amazon counts, the Amazon listing workflow is concentrated in one person, a single point of failure. Cross-train the rest of the team or split the load.

Refresh cadence

The Graphical Dashboard is a periodic snapshot, not real-time. It refreshes on a schedule (typically every few minutes for stock counts, slower for catalogue counts). For real-time figures use the Inventory Hub.

Common questions

Why does Common show 74 total but Amazon-Marketplace 1 also shows 74? Are they the same SKUs counted twice? Common is the master count. Each marketplace account row is the count of master SKUs that have a listing on that account. They overlap by design; if every master SKU is listed on Amazon-Marketplace 1, the two rows will match. They are not added together. The Error column shows 3 but I cannot find the errored SKUs. Click the number; it should drill through to a filtered view. If the click is not interactive in your release, open Inventory Hub, filter on the marketplace tab, and sort by Error or use the saved Search Filter Profile that surfaces error-state rows. Catalogue Creation Today is empty. Either no one has created a SKU today (legitimately, on a quiet day), or the catalogue activity feed has not yet been refreshed. Wait a few minutes. Image Management Status shows different counts per Amazon marketplace. Why? Some marketplaces have stricter image rules (Amazon US main image must be on white background, for example) and the same SKU can pass the rules on one Amazon region and fail on another. The counts are per-marketplace because the rules are per-marketplace. Can I export this dashboard? The dashboard itself is a live view. The underlying data lives in the [Analyse] reporting module. Use the relevant report (Inventory Age, Sales by SKU) for an export.
