Dimensional Reporting
Reporting and Comparing Changes to Business Dimensions
Dimensional reporting is critical to a best-practice dimension
management strategy. +EDM provides two groups of high-quality reports
available in a variety of formats.
Dimension life-cycle reports focus on a single version within a
dimension. These reports detail the changes made that occur within a
dimension version from its creation to its ultimate validation and
publication to the enterprise. These reports center on a specified
version and provide both transactional and summary-level information.
This aids in the version life-cycle process and provides high-quality,
archival reports.
+EDM's comparative reports spotlight the differences between any two
versions of a dimension. Comparative reporting is important for
reconciling different versions of a dimension and understanding how the
changes occurred over time. These reports aid in the review of new
versions and in point-in-time comparisons, such as current year-end vs.
last year-end. Comparative reports are a key component to satisfying a
compliance strategy.
Reports are produced by the system once and are immediately available in
a variety of formats, including: HTML, PDF, Excel, Web Archive, TIFF,
Text, and XML. In addition, +EDM's open reporting structure enables
users to easily generate custom reports from any dimensional data within
the system. |
