- This definition implies several facts. First to analyze the organization’s information, we need to get at it. That information may be: - stored in multiple locations and in different format (SP Lists, Databases, OLAP Cubes, Excel, etc…) - organized in different ways (relational, reports, etc…) - presented in different Uis (Web sites, Excel Workbooks, custom application)Simply bringing this information together for one person to analyze isn’t enough. That one person needs to be able to share their work with others and collaborate to find solutions. Then they need to share those solutions with others. The key point is that it’s not just enough to find the answers on your own if you can’t share them. Also finding the answers is easier when multiple people can collaborate effectively.The rest of the presentation will focus on how we use tools to bring this information together and allow analysts to examine and collaborate with others to gain the knowledge they need to drive business decisions.
- These tools range from front end components that help summarize and visualize data: - KPIs and Charting Web partTo systems that provide a client and server component to provide robust display and analysis of data: - PPS and Excel ServicesTo a back end component that will allow users to find information in multiple BI sources - BI Search
- There’s really not much to say here other than it exists. It’s a good starting point for those who are just learning about BI in SharePoint as it has some helpful examples of what can be done.
- Both of these web parts can be completely configured in the browser. The key scenarios around these web parts is that they don’t need any back end services. Each can retrieve data from multiple sources Fixed Values – represents the fact that the KPI can tie to a specific value that is manually entered. Ex. An overall status that can’t be calculated such as a judgment decision by a manager Lists and External Lists – represents list data or list data that comes from BCS. This opens up any data source since BCS can pull data from a database, services, or .NET code Excel Services/Analysis Services – represents that anything in external data services can be pulled up as well Other Web Parts – represents that the Chart Web Part understands that other web parts can be used to perform basic analysis and the Charting Web Part can expose it.For example this chart could be done in Excel, but that would require the data that can already be surfaced in SharePoint to be read and rendered by Excel. The Charting Web Part allows basic charting of data to be accomplished in the browser without the need for the excel engine.
- Provides a summary of information that has been chosen by the dashboard and scorecard designer. The usage process would be an analyst or IT Pro would create a dashboard using the dashboard designer application and publish it to a SharePoint site. End users would then be able to view the live data summarized for them. This summary allows them to get a quick view of an entire set of systems allowing them to make effective business decisions and identify issues as soon as possible.Focus on the concepts of IT enabling the business users to be self-sufficient. It allows them to see the information they need in an aggregated environment giving them the information the need to make decisions.

- Many existing Excel applications and forms exist. Instead of rewriting the functionality, these existing documents can be stored in SharePoint and exposed via Excel services. Using a combination of web parts to expose the data and custom Javacript accessing the Excel Services object model, these applications can be combined via the Portal.This allows leveraging of existing work while enabling the connections and collaboration wanted in a portal environment.
- An Excel workbook can be exposed in it’s entirety via the web or just specific parts. This increases the level of control available to IT and allows the creation of a complete data model in Excel while allowing users to only see part of it.One scenario is a complex Excel application. This application uses algorithms that are proprietary. If we let anyone see the Excel file, they can see them. If we only expose the inputs and outputs through Excel services, our intellectual property is protected.Another scenario is a Excel document that imports a set of data showing exactly what everyone in the organization is paid and a pivot chart that aggregates the data to show a summary. The summary is visible to the entire company, but the details shouldn’t be. By exposing only the summary via Excel services, everyone can see real time data of the summaries without seeing the raw data that is private.

- The data source is stored as a ppsdc file which is an xml file that contains all the information PPS needs to
- Note that this allows cross dimension filtering. This allows understanding why certain conditions exists. For example why are we selling far more of one product in one area than another. It can help analysts determine which products are more popular in areas.
