Business IntelligenceSage ERP X3 Distribution provides your company with integrated Business Intelligence tools to promote effective management reporting and decision-making.
Most business systems force companies to pre-define their business metrics, store them in a separate database (such as a data warehouse) and then update them as needed in batch mode, whether daily, weekly or even monthly. Such systems are inherently static, meaning they are difficult to change over time due to the complexities and inflexibility associated with performing sophisticated multi-dimensional analyses. The Sage ERP X3 Distribution software allows businesses to define not only their own unique performance metrics, but also the triggering events and rules and conditions for capturing and updating statistical information.
This approach allows users and managers (not programmers) to control business intelligence as their needs dictate. Further, the information is updated in real-time mode, so management can extract key information and make decisions based on the most up-to-date information in the system. This real-time orientation is intrinsic to the integrated foundation of Sage ERP X3 in which information coming from modules such as sales, inventory and purchasing is automatically updated in the appropriate accounting modules.
As a result of this flexible real-time approach to capturing key business information, companies can easily define and report on customer-centric performance metrics such as order delivery date reliability, order accuracy, revenues and profitability by customer, order cycle time, lost sales opportunities and fill rates.
More importantly, business metrics – and the triggering events, rules and conditions that define them – can easily be added, refined or discarded over time as business needs change, or as managers become more familiar with the full capabilities of having such information available. Business Intelligence on the flyPowered by leading Business Objects technology, Sage ERP X3 Business Intelligence also allows users to analyze their business performance on the fly and build compelling reports by simple drag & drop of the aggregated data that are updated in real time with the flow of day-to-day operations.
Forecasts may be stored and compared with actual performance data. This permits management to view or report on comparative analyses such as "sales by sales rep by month - forecasted vs. actual". Users can also drill down from summary information into more detail information and back again.
