KNV Zeitfracht's new dashboard development offers transparency and strengthens partnership with cash range suppliers

Stuttgart, June 15, 2020.

Since June 1, 2020, KNV Zeitfracht has been offering a new service in its supplier partnerships with an online portal for publishers. Publishers can access the sales and forecast data for their articles at KNV Zeitfracht around the clock via a dashboard.
"I am convinced that we can only master the challenges of the future together with transparency. As a wholesaler, we generate data from our sales that is highly relevant for our suppliers," says Thomas Raff, Managing Director of KNV Zeitfracht. "By creating the greatest possible visibility, we make it easier for publishers to plan their programs and print runs, for example, but also to identify trends at an early stage. This benefits the entire book market," explains Raff. The new dashboard starts with six evaluations and will be continuously developed. In the start view, publishers receive cumulative information on sales over the past seven days, bestsellers, sales per federal state or product group, stocks in the cash assortment warehouse and the number of pre-bookers. The pre-set analyses can be expanded and refined by the suppliers as required and exported in various formats for further processing. The dashboard was developed in-house by KNV Zeitfracht and has been tested with ten pilot publishers. In the coming weeks, all suppliers of the cash range will automatically receive their individual access data for the new portal.
