We already implemented various scenarios: Display of capacity data Display of financial data Calculation of open budget Calculation of matrix position Prioritization of items within a review based on a multi-level sort algorithm Display of review dependent item data Display of all data from the current decision point A simple interface enables you to implement additional scenarios.
