PrecisionPoint Business Warehouse


 

Microsoft Dynamics NAV and AX systems are inherently powerful, managing the company’s financials, sales, inventory, customer relationships, supply chain and more.  As a result, they’re also very complex, containing potentially thousands of database tables. Extracting subsets or building small analysis cubes disconnects the accounting logic behind various numbers that the system generates – it’s hard to get the single version of the truth, especially when you need to connect multiple ledgers or modules for detailed analysis. Because of its design, the PrecisionPoint Business Warehouse ensures the accounting relationships, postings, journal entries, and inter-company eliminations ARE reflected across all the views in the business warehouse.

From a performance perspective, it’s also increasingly difficult to create effective reports and analyses without compromising the transactional speed and efficiency your Microsoft Dynamics implementation requires.  PrecisionPoint responds with an automated solution that interrogates your Microsoft Dynamics NAV or AX ERP system and creates a separate data warehouse for efficient, insightful reporting and analysis.

  • A Complete, Integrated View – PrecisionPoint lets you see a complete, integrated view of your business by intelligently and automatically integrating your central Dynamics ERP data.  All of the numbers tie together correctly and logically, eliminating fruitless meetings debating the accuracy and sources of numbers in reports and analyses.
  • Comprehensive, Integrated Reporting – Finance, sales, bookings, inventory, project, supply-chain information, currency, inter-company adjustment data – all in one place.  You can finally see the interrelationships among those disciplines and manage the business from a more coherent, cohesive vantage point.
  • Removing the Complexity – PrecisionPoint can interpret and understand the thousands of database tables (and their relationships) that sophisticated Microsoft Dynamics AX and NAV sites can have.  PrecisionPoint interrogates the data and data structures each time it refreshes the data warehouse.
  • Smarter Performance Management – PrecisionPoint offloads data for reporting into complete integrated warehouse that incorporates table, star-schema and hypercube designs  optimized for reporting and analysis speed and navigation.  You don’t have to make modifications to your production/transaction system to accommodate reporting needs – modifications that can compromise the performance and integrity of your Microsoft Dynamics implementation.  By separating performance from transaction processing, you can achieve greater performance for both systems.
  • Scalability – Whether you’re starting out with a simple single company deployment or you have a sophisticated, multi-company, multi country implementation with custom dimensions - PrecisionPoint can comfortably keep pace with your business reporting needs.
  • Lockstep Synchronization – PrecisionPoint refreshes its design every day to capture any new changes you make to your ERP system.  Add a new account, department, product, or location; PrecisionPoint automatically detects and adjusts for the next day.  That keeps your reporting and financial information in sync and precise.  Automated process checks ensure that the entire process finishes and reconciles  before the new data is put into production. 
  • Complete Security – In today’s strict regulatory climate, data security is non-negotiable.  PrecisionPoint centrally controls all security, ensuring that only authorized users can see sensitive data.
  • Support for Deploying Microsoft Dynamics – You can reduce your Microsoft Dynamics implementation time by running PrecisionPoint in parallel to verify reporting, posting, organization, and consolidation paths.  That can prevent costly delays and needless modifications to your transaction system.
