In this article we will continue our exploration of
ProClarity in the same hands-on manner, with a focus on exposing more of the
rich analysis and reporting capabilities of the application.
First, we will return to the point at which we left our “tour” at the end of
Part I, and finish discussing some features from the rudimentary perspective of
the Budget cube. Next, we’ll move our examination to a cube with a bit more
complexity, and take advantage of the opportunities that this avails to
experience additional features of the application.
The topics within this article will include:
- An introduction to several additional features
that are available within ProClarity to provide for analyzing, and creating
enterprise reporting components from, data in MSAS cubes;
- Various use and navigation tips for the ProClarity
interface in analyzing, and reporting from, MSAS cubes;
- Practice examples of uses for the ProClarity
functionality that we expose.
