MCDM Recipes is a component of Improvado Transformation product. Select Recipes from the left-hand menu to access the Recipes catalog in the User Interface.

Recipes catalog

The Recipes catalog includes the complete list of Improvado MCDM Recipes. All recipes have a short description, but a set of available Demo Dashboards depends on the recipe.

You can request any recipe via the Service Desk. If the recipe is available, its current status is shown instead of the Request button.

Recipe details

The Recipe Details page for the activated Recipe consists of three tabs:

• Overview
• Customization
• Resources

And before requesting, you can only view and copy a Demo Dashboard and check the Data Dictionary for the Recipe.

The labels under the Recipe's title indicate the scheduling settings and the time of the last Recipe run.

You can run the Recipe manually instead of waiting for the next scheduled build by clicking the Apply button in the upper right corner.
