L2L TeamBoard is a digital dashboard to be used during Tier meetings. It follows common SQDC principles, and uses L2L data, so you can get started without a complex setup. If you would like to learn more about TeamBoard, please contact your L2L rep today!
Enabling TeamBoard
- Talk with your account representative to purchase TeamBoard.
- If you have purchased TeamBoard, a member of the L2L Team likely has already enabled or may further enable this for your site.
- If you have purchased TeamBoard, you use the production module, and this has not yet been set up by a member of the L2L team, enabling is very easy if you'd like to try yourself.
- Please note: If you are not using the production module, TeamBoard is not intended for you as the production module is a prerequisite to enable functionality.
Filters
- You'll find a filter icon on the top of the TeamBoard that allows you to search and/or select from site, areas, lines, or line categories.
- Line categories are used to accommodate those levels of hierarchy between line and area and between area and site.
- For example, if I have a supervisor in charge of 3 lines, they might have their own line categories to see all the data in one spot. You may do the same thing for multiple areas/lines.
- Use the multi-level filters to personalize to your org chart to instantly start stand-up meetings. Zoom into an area or specific line to focus your attention on what’s most important to you using the top filters to look at shop floor from whichever level you’d like. You may personalize the reporting structure in L2L to reflect your own org structure that way you can sort by manager to kick off stand up meetings very easily.
- The house icon to the right of the filter will let you set this page as the home page. This is useful for setting this page as a Dashboard on TVs or Computers throughout the Plant.

You will have two different options to choose from for the Delivery Widget, you can choose to view the Schedule Attainment or the Production Trend simply by clicking on either Pitch or Order at the top of the screen.
Order: Schedule Attainment (This applies to order-based planning.)

Schedule Attainment
Personalize widgets to see your unique schedule.
In the Delivery Column, schedule attainment is a new widget that shows you how you’re meeting your weekly customer order commitment.
Weekly Schedule Attainment
This widget calculates a 5-week planned vs. actual for product orders. The actual parts will be attributed to the sum of the pitch actuals for the production week, while the planned parts will come from the sum of the build sequence order quantity where the scheduled date is within the production week displayed.
*Note: If you have an order that spans a weekend, it would be best to split the order into build sequences that avoid the weekend (if you aren't running during that time).
Daily Schedule Attainment
This widget shows the weekly planned parts and the daily attainment of the plan. The line represents the total parts that should be built by the end of each production day, taking into account shift schedules. The bar chart represents the actual parts built each day, and will be additive across the days; i.e. actuals from Sunday are added to Monday, Monday to Tuesday, etc.
Production Trend
In the Delivery Column, Production Trend is a widget that shows you plan vs actual for customers who set demand on pitches at the beginning of each week.
Daily Plan vs Actual
This Line will represent the cumulative pitch demand vs actual.
Daily Production Trend
The line will represent the sum of the pitch demand for each day and the stacked bar will represent the sum of the pitch actual each day broken out by shift.
Weekly Production Trend
The line will represent the sum of the pitch demand for each week and the stacked bar will represent the sum of the pitch actual each week broken out by day.
Monthly Production Trend
The line will represent the sum of the pitch demand for each month and the stacked bar will represent the sum of the pitch actual each week broken out by week.
Delivery Corrective Actions
Dispatches with a Delivery Dispatch Type Category will be displayed here with a brief description and the number of days open. This widget only shows the 2 most recent Dispatches, but allows you to open a new page to view the Dispatch History with the rest.

- You may have a mix in the plant(s) between lines that include pitches that use demand-based planning versus lines that use order-based planning.
- If you are using order widgets for order-based planning, you will need to break out orders that span over the weekend into different build sequences as Delivery will pull in build sequences with the same schedule date for a week. Delivery groups weekly orders by schedule date.
