Course Summary

SAP Business ByDesign is a cloud-based ERP solution, which delivers integrated and insight-driven business processes for small and mid-size companies. Built-In Analytics is the essential capability of this solution, driving transparency and delivering analytical insights as an integrated part of your business processes out-of-the-box. Customers get contextual information to make better decisions at the point where the job gets done. This allows decision makers to understand root causes, business trends, success drivers, and critical situations based on the integrated business data generated by your business processes.

In this course, you’ll learn how business users consume analytical insights such as KPIs and reports and analyze the related processes and details. You’ll also learn how a key user can create and adapt analytical assets such as data sources, reports KPIs according to the business needs of their company. Finally, you’ll understand how analytics can be extended, data can be exposed, and information can be enriched intelligently using third-party integration.
