If you have purchased Product Analytics for your manufacturer, you will be able to find the Product tab on the Analytics page. Clicking this will take you to the Product Analytics page.

Here extension owners and product marketing managers can analyze product popularity at a part number level. It allows users to understand product popularity, monitor campaign effect as well as better plan for logistics ahead of time.

Main Page - Key Features and Functionality

1. Drawing Period

This dropdown allow user to define a time range (e.g. last 30 days) to capture all drawings opened within that period. The query will display all products used in those drawings.

2. Application

The analytics dashboard lets you track how your products are being used across different design tools. Use the Application filter to focus your results on either:

• CET
• Spec

3. Filter

Users can refine their search using detailed criteria to generate highly targeted results. Available filter parameters include:

• Feature Description

A product characteristic or category.

Example: For a chair, a feature could be Upholstery or Armrest Style.

• Option Description

A specific choice within a feature.

Example: For the Upholstery feature, options might include Leather, Fabric, or Mesh.

• Part Number

Also known as article code

• Part Description

The description of the product/part

• Total Product Count

Define numerical thresholds for how frequently a product appears within the selected drawing period.

• Source

This dropdown enables users to filter product data by its origin, such as:

1.CET Extension

2.Catalogue

3.CIL

4. Operator

Operators define how the system interprets and matches the query criteria. They allow users to fine-tune search results by specifying the relationship between the filter and the input value. 
Operators used include:

• Begins With
• Ends With
• Contains
• Does Not Contain
• Equals to
• Greater Than / Less Than

5. Input

Input refers to the text or value manually entered into a search field to define specific criteria. This input works in conjunction with filters and operators to limit the scope of the query results to something that you are interested in. Examples of input include part numbers, option keywords, or numerical thresholds.

You can specify multiple values in the input field. The filter will evaluate all the input with OR criteria.

For example, the following filter

Will be evaluated as “If part number begins with ABA- or part number begins with ABB- or part number begins with ABC-“.

Note: Part Quantity Total filter only allows 1 input value

6. Total, New, Existing and Removed Counts

When you run a product query, the results page shows how many times each part number has been placed. To give you more insight, the counts are now split into Total, New, Existing and Removed. Explanation for each filter will be explained below.

Result - Data Listing

Click Generate Result to fetch data based on your selected filters. The Data Listing page includes two sections:

• Summary panel – Displays an overview of the query results.

• Detailed results table – Lists each product and related statistics.

   

7. Summary

The summary provides an at-a-glance overview of your results. The displayed numbers depend on which display option you selected. (Total, New, Existing or Removed counts).

8. CSV Exports

Users can export the results in CSV format, allowing them to further analyze the data in Microsoft Excel or other tools.

9. Part Number & Part Description 

Displays each products’:

• Part Number – The unique product code.
• Part Description – The product’s name or label for easier identification.

10. Source

Indicates where the product data originated from. Examples include:

• CET package
• Catalogue (for Spec or CET application)
• CIL (for CET application)

11.  Part Count and Drawing Count

Part Count
Shows the total quantity of each product across all drawings in the selected period.
This reflects the latest count in each drawing.
Example: If a drawing began the month with 2 Fika Chairs and ended with 5, the result displays 5.

Note: Some counts appear as decimals because certain items (like panels or surfaces) are measured by length or area rather than units.

Drawing Count
Shows the number of unique drawings that include the product.

Visual Indicators

The horizontal bars next to each count help visualize how products compare by volume.
Each bar represents the product’s proportion relative to the highest number in the list — making it easier to spot top-used products at a glance.

12. Save, Share & Subscribe to Presets

The Save & Share Presets feature provides users with the capability to save, share, and manage query presets collaboratively with manufacturer admins.

Save

Users can save query presets by completing all required fields on the product page and click "Save." Once saved, users can select the saved cards to generate query results.

The details of saved preset can be accessed by clicking the "More Info" icon located in the right corner of the saved card and select “View details".

Share

Users within the same manufacturer can view and use saved presets. For example, if User A, who has access to Manufacturer A, saves presets, User B, who also has access to Manufacturer A, can view and use those presets, and vice versa. 

Weekly Subscription

Users can subscribe to receive query results automatically via email every Sunday (EST). Once a subscription is enabled, recipients will receive a summary containing data from the previous calendar week.

Note: The Drawing Period filter does not apply to weekly subscriptions. Subscription emails always include data for the previous week, regardless of the drawing period selected on the Query Page.

All users within the same manufacturer can manage subscription recipients. Recipients can be added or removed from either of the following locations:

• View Details dialog
• Manage Recipients dialog

Recipients are not required to have access to Analytics in order to receive subscription emails.

Delete

To delete saved presets, click the "More Info" icon in the right corner of the saved card and select "Delete." Once deleted, the card will be removed, and other users will no longer be able to view it.

Note: Only the creator of a preset has the permission to delete their own saved preset.

Result - Geographic Heatmap

For CET products, users can switch to the Heatmap view to analyze the geographic distribution of product usage data. The heatmap provides a visual representation of usage across different regions, making it easier to identify usage patterns and trends.

 

Note: Heatmap visualization is not yet available for SPEC products.

 

Country-Level View

• Hover over a country on the heatmap to view:
  • The number and the percentage of Part Counts relative to the Total Part Count.
  • The number and the percentage of Drawings relative to the Total Drawing Count.

United States State-Level View

• To view a more detailed breakdown within the United States, click United States (US) on the heatmap.
• The system will display a state-level heatmap showing the distribution across US states.
• State-level heatmaps are currently available only for the United States and are not supported for other countries.

Privacy Protection and Data Anonymization

To help protect user privacy, geographic data is anonymized when the Unique User Count for a country or U.S. state is five (5) or fewer. When this threshold is not met, the data is aggregated to prevent the identification of individual users.

How anonymized data is displayed:

• Drawing and part counts for locations with 5 or fewer unique users are not shown individually on the heatmap.
• Instead, their data is combined into an aggregated count.
• If the combined group contains more than 5 unique users, the aggregated drawing and part counts are displayed below the heatmap.
• If the combined group contains 5 or fewer unique users, the aggregated drawing and part counts are hidden to protect user privacy.

Map totals may differ from overall totals because: 

• Some countries have insufficient unique user count. 
• Some drawings and parts are missing location data. 

 

Product Details Page 

The Product Details page provides detailed insights into a specific product, including product trends, geographic heatmap, and option distribution. 

Here’s how you can access the Product Details page:

1. Run a query from the main Product Analytics interface.
2. Review the results in the Data Listing table.
3. Click on the row with the Part Number for the product you want to look into.
4. The Product Details page will open. 

 

Product Trendline

The Trendline view displays drawing and product counts over time, helping manufacturers identify usage trends and growth patterns across the selected time period. It follows the same calculations and behavior as the Product Analytics main query, providing a consistent analytics experience. 

Users can analyze product activity by selecting one of the following count types:

• Total counts
• New counts only
• Existing counts only
• Removed counts only

For detailed definitions and calculation methods for each count type, refer to (7) Summary. 

Note: The Product Trendline uses UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) for all calculations to improve query performance and enable faster trendline generation. As a result, trendline values may differ slightly from those shown in the Main Query, which uses the user's local time zone. These differences are most noticeable when data is grouped by week or month, particularly for drawings saved near the start or end of the selected query period, where records may be assigned to different time periods.

 

 

Geographic Heatmap

The Heatmap view displays product usage data on a map, helping you understand how the product is used across different geographic regions. This view works the same way as the main query's Geographic Heatmap.

Note: Heatmap visualization is not yet available for SPEC products.

 

Option Distribution

The Option Distribution view gives you a closer look at product placement data for a specific part number. From here, you can explore features, options, and detailed breakdowns

Note: The Option Distribution data may not be available for parts with CET Package as a source, as there could be custom implementation in the extension that affects the gathering of the data. Please find more information regarding this in the FAQ section. 

This view is divided into a few sections:

Overall Product Details (i)

This section summarizes the key information carried over from your previous search, including:

• Part number
• Drawing period
• Application
• Applied filters
• Total part count
• Total drawings

These values represent the full totals from your main query result.

Feature Product Details 

This section helps you explore how the product is used based on selected features and options.

• Select Top-Level Feature
  Use the dropdown to switch between available features (e.g., Upholstery, Headrest, Armrest Style) to see different ways users configured the product.
• Feature-Based Totals (ii)
  The totals shown here reflect only the selected top-level feature, so they may differ from the overall totals above.
• Option Selection Combinations (iii)
  For each top-level feature, view how different options (e.g., Leather, Fabric) are combined and how often each combination appears.
• Export to CSV
  Export the Option Distribution data results as a CSV file for additional analysis in Excel or other tools.
• Easy Navigation
  Return to your previous results using the back button, browser navigation. Your previous query will automatically rerun so you don't lose your filters.
