iBaan Decision Manager is a decision-support solution that you can use to:

� Extract key data from your business management system.� Store the data in a data warehouse and OLAP databases.� Analyze the data.� Present the analysis in the shape of reports and graphs.

For each area that you want to analyze, for example, sales, or production, theBusiness Content defines what data is extracted from the source system, how thedata is stored in the data warehouse, and how the information is made availablefor the analyses.

The Business Content consists of:

� Extraction, Transformation, and Loading (ETL) models.� OLAP cubes.� Universes.

This chapter briefly explains the various Decision Manager concepts andcomponents related to the business content.

ETL models

The ETL models extract the data from the source systems, transform the data intouseful information for decision-making, and load the information in a datawarehouse. After loading, the data warehouse contains the required fact anddimension data for analysis.

Facts

Facts reflect the events in your business that you want to analyze. The factsconsist of the dynamic data that Decision Manager extracts from your Baandatabase, such as order quantities, delivery dates, invoiced amounts, andcompleted orders.

Overview of iBaan Decision Manager


Dimensions

Dimensions represent a point of view from which you can analyze the data. Thedimensions consist of comparatively static data, or master data, such ascustomers, suppliers, warehouses, and time, that is related to the facts. Forexample, you can use a Warehouse dimension to analyze which warehouses issuemost, or none, of the goods.

Data warehouse

The fact data and dimension data is stored in fact tables and dimension tables in adata warehouse. The ETL scripts update the data in the warehouse with the datafrom the live database.

Before you can analyze the data with either the Baan OLAP Client or BusinessObjects Reporting, the data warehouse data must be processed to prepare it foranalysis. You can do this in either of the following ways:

� By building and processing OLAP cubes.� By designing Universes.

OLAP cubes

The OLAP cubes contain a combination of fact data and dimension data as wellas the results of computations such as totals, average numbers, and percentages.To access the OLAP cubes, you can use the OLAP client as well as the BusinessObject reporting tool.

iBaan OLAP Navigator

You can use the iBaan OLAP Navigator to view the data in the OLAP cubesfrom various angles. You can apply formulas, filters, graphs, and so on to thedata in OLAP cubes to obtain information about trends, causes of events,exceptions, and other interesting facts. For instructions on how to use the OLAPNavigator, refer to the OLAP Client User Guide.

Universes

A Universe is an extra layer through which you can access the data in the datawarehouse by using the Business Objects Reporting environment. The Universeconsists of objects that are mapped on the data in the data warehouse. You canbuild queries on the data warehouse through the Universe and present the resultsin reports compiled by Business Objects Reporting.



Business Objects Reporting

You can use Business Objects Reporting to access and print reports of theinformation in a data warehouse and in the OLAP cubes. The available BusinessObjects Reporting user manuals describe how you can define queries to analyzethe data and to build reports.

Figure 1 shows how the various Decision Manager components are related toeach other.

This chapter describes some analyses that you can carry out based on theBusiness Content described in the previous chapter.

The following examples show the capabilities of the Business Content forInventory. Due to the flexibility of the OLAP environment and the reportingenvironment certain issues can be clarified with the help of Business Content. Asthese environments extensively work with the notion of dimensions, you caneasily produce the information on the level you want.

The Universe enables the user to create both single and multi-company reports.Standard, the report contains data from multiple companies. With respect toamounts, make sure you use the DWC measures in a multi-company report. Tocreate a single company report, select the object Company number selected in thequery panel. If you run a query, or refresh a report, this automatically promptsthe user to select a company number from a list. The report then only containsdata for the selected company. The selected company number can then bedisplayed in the report.

3 Examples

Examples


Resource utilizationFigure 3-1 is a typical example of resource utilization (Labor and Machines).

Figure 3-1 Resource utilization

A user might want to know the resource utilization in relation to planning. Aresource can be Man or Machine. Utilization can be analyzed over a period oftime or in a specific time. In addition, utilization can be analyzed for a particularitem or group of items, for a workcenter, and so on. Each dimension available inthe Machine_Man_Usage cube is useful to drill down to a specific area that is ofinterest to the user. This cube allows a user to find out the deviation in terms oftime or cost.

Examples


Material usageTypically, material cost constitutes 10 to 70 % of the cost of goodsmanufactured. Therefore, to have a tight control on material consumption forproduction is extremely important. This cube analyzes material consumptionwith respect to planned consumption based on bill of material and routing.Figure 3-2 provides an example of material usage.

Figure 3-2 Material usage

Figure 3-2 lists actual material consumption versus planned consumption for acertain period range. In addition, it indicates planned and actual scrap asencountered.

These facts can be analyzed on various dimensions such as Item, Customer,Warehouse, and Time range.

Examples


Cost of productionFigure 3-3 shows the Planned versus Actual cost of production as constituted bythe three Ms, which are Man, Machine, and Material. In addition, it shows detailsof overhead cost incurred for producing the item.

You can perform this kind of analysis on various dimensions, such as Item,Ordering system, Project/Customer and Time Range.

Figure 3-3 Production cost

Examples


Production delivery performanceIn this competitive world, customers demand multiple varieties in the shortestpossible time. This has led to an extremely challenging environment in whichcustomer orders must be fulfilled as quickly as possible, as decided by supplychain engines with proper quality and quantity. Cube SFC_Delivery_Perf dealswith this aspect of production. Users can analyze production performance fortimeliness and quantity correctness. Performance can be analyzed on measuressuch as percentage orders completed in time and in quantity, or both. Also,measures such as Quantity Completed and Rejected can be considered withrespect to dimensions such as Item, Project/Customer, and Time range.

Figure 3-4 is a typical example of such a performance analysis:

Figure 3-4 Production performance

Examples


Capacity allocationCube Resource_Util deals with capacity allocation to different types ofproduction orders according to Baan logistics. Allocation can be found inworkcenter.

Figure 3-5 shows capacity required for different types of production orders, suchas PRP, PMG, SFC released or to be released, and so on. These productionorders can also be analyzed per critical capacity of workcenter. The figure showsboth man and machine critical workcenters for these types of orders.

Figure 3-5 Capacity allocation

Examples


Project profitabilityCube Proj_Profitability deals with project costing and invoicing. These areindicators of budgeted cost and actual cost of project. In addition, it indicates theamount invoiced to the customer and how much must still be invoiced. This cubehelps users to track project cost and invoicing from a financial perspective.

Figure 3-6 represents various amounts for all projects and all customers. Itindicates available measures in this cube, such as Budgeted cost, Planned cost,and various amounts from a sales perspective. Available dimensions for this cubeare Project/Customer, Project/Status and Time range.

Figure 3-6 Profitability analysis

Examples


Hours accounting analysisThe actual execution of production is recorded by means of the quantitycompleted and hours accounting. Hours accounting is an indicator that indicatesthe progress of production activities per plan. Hours accounting indicates theresources that are used and how long they are used to complete the production.Hours accounting also indicates how many resources are available for productionin a given time. Depending on measures and dimensions selected for analysis,this data can be extracted from the data warehouse.

Various dimensions in cube HRA_Hours_Spent are Item, Hourly labor type,Task, Machine, Workcenter, Employee, and so on. These dimensions provideflexibility in finding out which resource worked on a specific task or a specificitem or range of items, and so on.

Figure 3-7 Hours accounting analysis

Examples


Workcenter analysisCube HRA_Workcenter_Bud is designed to take care of controlling theworkcenter utilization against budget. Users can build various queries and reportsbased on resource availability and cost of resource. Analyses include eitherLabor or Machine. Various measures are based on cost or hours spent/budgeted.Deviations from budgeted values can be analyzed to control the workcenterutilization.

Figure 3-8 shows all measures analyzed with respect to all workcenters from acritical capacity point of view. Deviation of workcenter utilization can be foundin actual hours, cost, or percentages of budgeted value.
