Business Reporting for sales

Marketing

Management reporting

BPM (Business process management)

Budgeting

Forecasting

Financial Reporting

The term OLAP originates from the traditional database term OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) and was slightly modified to allow users to interactively analyse multidimensional data from multiple perspectives. OLAP consists of three basic analytical operations:

Consolidation

Aggregation of data that can be accumulated and computed in one or more dimensions

All sales offices are rolled up to the sales department or sales division to anticipate sales trends

Drill-down

Allows users to navigate through the details

Users can access the sales by individual products that make up a region's sales

slicing and dicing

Users can take out (slicing) a specific set of data of the cube and view (dicing) the slices from difference view points.
