What is a Product KPI Report ? Product KPI Reports are considered operational analysis tools and are used by executives and product managers to track key metrics by product offering and branch. Some of the main functionality in this type of KPI report is that it can be filtered by any region and period, and it provides both detailed and summarized figures. The three charts on the top of the report show: 1) New and approved applications, 2) Declined applications and customer defaults, 3) Approved amount and default amount. The main body of the report contains the same six metrics as in the charts, and the rows show product figures by credit union branch. You find an example of this type of KPI report below. Purpose of Product Reports Credit Unions use Product Reports to give leaders a detailed and summary view of performance across product offerings and branches. When used as part of good business practices in Executive-, Loan- and Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) departments, a company can improve its product strategies and profitability, and it can reduce the chances that decisions are being made without a near real-time picture of key product performance metrics.
