With these familiar and intuitive methods of interaction, business users navigate, sort, pivot, drill on fields, create new calculations, switch between cross-tab and graphical views, and perform common tasks such as printing, exporting to Excel and emailing.

WYSIWYG Design For All Enterprise –
Scorecards, Dashboards and Reports |
With MicroStrategy Report Services, business users can easily design
and refine reports in full WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get)
mode through a zero-footprint Web interface. WYSIWYG design means
that users can design all types of enterprise reports in the same
manner they would format a document in Microsoft® PowerPoint® or Excel.
Business users drag-and-drop objects into a new position, format, pivot, graph, add commentary, and provide any number of edits on their own. This kind of adaptive authoring dramatically reduces report creation time, as now the average business user can tune reports to look
exactly like they want them to look, without endless and time-consuming
iterations with professional report designers. |

Services users can easily create the highest quality reports with
complete formatting flexibility. |

High-Volume Enterprise Report Generation |

With a proven report generation of 80,000 personalized reports per

and event-based report delivery. |

Complete View of Enterprise Data
Assets |

All MicroStrategy Report Services scorecards, dashboards and enterprise reports can use data from virtually any source or combination of multiple separate data sources. These data sources include relational data warehouses, transactional databases, operational datamarts, SAP® Business Information Warehouse (SAP BW), and even flat files such as comma-delimited and Excel files. From human resources to finance to supply chain applications sourced
from ERP applications like SAP® and other operational systems,
MicroStrategy leverages the breadth of corporate data assets to provide
a complete view of the business. |
