Description
Friedrich Vieweg & Sohn Verlagsgesellschaft mbH Corporate Information With Sap- Eis by Bernd-Ulrich Kaiser , Series Stephen Fedtke
The book is a real life-oriented, professional guide to developing a Management Information System (MIS). The book is professional in the sense that it addresses an MIS that encompasses all the hierarchical decisions-making levels within a corporation, and it emphasizes reliable, understandable and transparent information. The most important demand of an MIS is an easy-to-use-system interface, which needs to be coupled with an information infrastructure that takes marked conditions and the company's particular business environment into account. The use of a modular and flexible system architecture is designed to maximize the system's benefits to cost ratio. In addition to SAP-EIS, the book details how to use the inSight program (from the Duesseldorf-based company arcplan) to optimize system performance. Contents: Information needs and information sources - Data warehousing - inSight(R) for SAP(R)-EIS from arcplan - Building and maintaining an Management Information System (MIS)
