B104.14 - Business Reporting |
Business Reporting is about taking the weight, blood pressure and pulse of your business.
Often times, each process has its own reporting modules.
When they don't you need to create reports and reporting systems to compile information in a way that is beneficial for you.
Basic Reporting
Basic Reporting might be thought of as aggregating basic facts for cumulative view. Total Sales for a day, week or month is the accumulation of individual sales, for example
Metrics Reporting
Metrics reporting is where things get fun. Maybe you want to do a report that shows total sales per retail employee on staff by hour? In metrics reporting, you get to create your own metrics that you feel might give you insight, and then you get to figure out how to aggregate the data to give you the insight you seek.
