17 Dashboard Ability (S&OP) Using BEx Before There was difficulty in presenting the overall business results for executives with just a few mouse clicks There is no visualization for overall view of how the company is performing None of these reports were available through the web using our SAP Portal There are dramatic ease of use issues with multiple reports for the same basic use case There were multiple series of data layout sheets and not a consolidated view 1

18 Dashboard (S&OP) Using Xcelsius After Select Different a Product Group and GBU Select Time Period Service & Demand KPIs GBU window Actual vs. Target Supply KPIs Other KPIs GBT window Performance by Region Actual vs. Target for GBU and Region 18 18

19 Typical Ad Hoc Analysis Using BEx Before Some Key Constraints All Key Figures & Measures must be laid out on the report There is no flexibility to select only Key Figures that need to be displayed There is limited formatting compared to WEBI which has free form formatting capability. 1

20 Ad Hoc Analysis Using Webi After All table based reports easily converted into graphical representations of the same data values 1

21 Data Exploration & Discovery Using Business Explorer Accelerated Ask a simple question to see a result set that will show some core reports with your question s answer The data exploration Information Space will show key figures that relate to your question s key item (i.e. sales by category) The results are categorized by a scoring system of highest to lowest.

23 Mobile Reporting - Before» Hey, Matt..is there a way you can easily provide me metrics like Line Fill, On Time Performance, and Perfect Order % without me always having to login to my laptop and digging for it?» Why can t you just push something simply to my Blackberry so I can check it out on my way into work?

24 Mobile Reporting The Next Wave» Mobile platforms will allow us to take snippets of key information that may reside in larger dashboards and reports and push them directly to end users who only want to see pieces of information at any time wherever they may be» Blackberry, iphone, ipad platforms will all be leveraged in this capacity 1

25 Summary and Recommendations Understand your company s real issues, not the hyperbole or simply the headlines Do not underestimate the importance of Speed to Market Be very clear on where you want to focus and exactly what applications can get you there Categorize your end users into groups that can be mapped to the appropriate applications to deliver them analytics they can actually use and make decisions with Define a clear roadmap and communicate it to the masses don t surprise people (unless it s a really good one) Understand that the SAP BI Platform is not just BW anymore You will need to seriously consider BWA, WEBI, Xcelsius, Explorer, Portal, Mobile as an application architecture to appease the masses
