Reports

Turbo EA includes a powerful visual reporting module that allows analyzing the enterprise architecture from different perspectives. All reports can be saved for reuse with their current filter and axis configuration.

Portfolio Report

The Portfolio Report displays a configurable bubble chart (or scatter plot) of your cards. You choose what each axis represents:

• X axis — Select any numeric or select field (e.g., Technical Suitability)
• Y axis — Select any numeric or select field (e.g., Business Criticality)
• Bubble size — Map to a numeric field (e.g., Annual Cost)
• Bubble color — Map to a select field or lifecycle state

This is ideal for portfolio analysis — plotting applications by business value vs. technical fitness, for example, to identify candidates for investment, replacement, or retirement.

AI Portfolio Insights

When AI is configured and portfolio insights are enabled by an admin, the portfolio report shows an AI Insights button. Clicking it sends a summary of your current view to the AI provider, which returns strategic insights about concentration risks, modernisation opportunities, lifecycle concerns, and portfolio balance. The insights panel is collapsible and can be regenerated after changing filters or grouping.

Capability Map

The Capability Map shows a hierarchical heatmap of the organization's business capabilities. Each block represents a capability, with:

• Hierarchy — Main capabilities contain their sub-capabilities
• Heatmap coloring — Blocks are colored based on a selected metric (e.g., number of supporting applications, average data quality, or risk level)
• Click to explore — Click any capability to drill down into its details and supporting applications

Lifecycle Report

The Lifecycle Report shows a timeline visualization of when technology components were introduced and when they are planned to be retired. Critical for:

• Retirement planning — See which components are approaching end-of-life
• Investment planning — Identify gaps where new technology is needed
• Migration coordination — Visualize overlapping phase-in and phase-out periods

Components are displayed as horizontal bars spanning their lifecycle phases: Plan, Phase In, Active, Phase Out, and End of Life.

Dependencies Report

The Dependencies Report visualizes connections between components as a network graph. Nodes represent cards and edges represent relations. Features:

• Depth control — Limit how many hops from the center node to display (BFS depth limiting)
• Type filtering — Show only specific card types and relation types
• Interactive exploration — Click any node to recenter the graph on that card
• Impact analysis — Understand the blast radius of changes to a specific component

C4 Diagram View

Toggle to the C4 Diagram view using the view-mode buttons in the toolbar. This renders the same dependency data using C4-notation:

• Boundary boxes — Cards are grouped by architectural layer (Strategy, Business, Application, Technical) inside dashed boundary rectangles
• Interactive canvas — Pan, zoom, and use the minimap to navigate large diagrams
• Click to inspect — Click any node to open the card detail side panel
• No center card required — The C4 view shows all cards matching the current type filter
• Connection highlighting — Hover over a card to highlight its connections; on touch devices, use the highlight toggle button in the controls panel to tap-highlight instead

Cost Report

The Cost Report provides financial analysis of your technology landscape:

• Treemap view — Nested rectangles sized by cost, with optional grouping (e.g., by organization or capability)
• Bar chart view — Cost comparison across components
• Aggregation — Costs can be summed from related cards using calculated fields

Matrix Report

The Matrix Report creates a cross-reference grid between two card types. For example:

• Rows — Applications
• Columns — Business Capabilities
• Cells — Indicate whether a relation exists (and how many)

This is useful for identifying coverage gaps (capabilities with no supporting applications) or redundancies (capabilities supported by too many applications).

Data Quality Report

The Data Quality Report is a completeness dashboard that shows how well your architecture data is filled in. Based on field weights configured in the metamodel:

• Overall score — Average data quality across all cards
• By type — Breakdown showing which card types have the best/worst completeness
• Individual cards — List of cards with the lowest data quality, prioritized for improvement

End of Life (EOL) Report

The EOL Report shows the support status of technology products linked via the EOL Administration feature:

• Status distribution — How many products are Supported, Approaching EOL, or End of Life
• Timeline — When products will lose support
• Risk prioritization — Focus on mission-critical components approaching EOL

Saved Reports

Save any report configuration for quick access later. Saved reports include a thumbnail preview and can be shared across the organization.

Process Map

The Process Map visualizes the organization's business process landscape as a structured map, showing process categories (Management, Core, Support) and their hierarchical relationships.
