摘要:
User interface that enables a user to manipulate visual representations of non-linear business logic to define and run data-centric “what-if” simulations. The visual interface models non-linear calculations based on the mapping of an input value in a non-linear domain to a score range, which score range can be continuous or non-continuous. The interface presents variable graphical indicator representations, as well as proximity and sensitivity visualizations. Different models can be developed and tested using live data feeds and aggregated dependent data feeds. The visual interface employs recursive scoring, and facilitates collaborative interface interaction.

A dimension member of a report is slid to produce a new view of the report that corresponds to the slid dimension. The dimension member sliding allows navigation of a dimension of the data by members in a pattern that is not hierarchical. The view of the report corresponds to a hierarchy tree that is decomposed into a matrix. The next dimension members are determined using the matrix and the dimensionally slid view of the report is generated.

Report views offer a user the ability to specify ancillary data views and also view that data in a scorecard viewing experience. A report view definition may be implemented as a metadata-based mapping of logical reports to physical reports for scorecards and KPIs. Reports are categorized based on their presentation size and/or type. Categorized report attributes included in the report view metadata are managed by a configuration UI. The report view metadata further includes schema, ordering capabilities, and mapping UI such as re-use of report views in multiple areas.

Scorecard data including scorecard views, and the like are exported to a presentation application for generating a presentation based on the scorecard data. Briefing book definitions are generated based on the scorecard data, default parameters and user-defined parameters for providing a user selections for the presentations. Using composite objects, scorecard and report views may be reformatted, resized, laid out, and paginated according to the presentation preferences. Once the user selections are received the presentation may be rendered generating charts based on the data, grouping and breaking down views, incorporating unstructured data, and the like.
摘要:
An object model and a user interface (UI) enable users of a scorecard application to define an order and categorization of elements including header and row components to break out the scorecard data for effective presentation of multidimensional scorecard views combined with data from non-multidimensional sources. Users are provided options to select individual or sets of members, or to provide queries that select sets of metrics for the scorecard view. Header components are defined at predetermined depth of layers enabling the user to view categorized metrics. Additional columns providing attribute information associated with the metrics can also be inserted in selected places within the scorecard matrix using the editing
摘要:
Persistent annotations are created on a scorecard that combines multi-dimensional as well as fixed value data. The annotations uniquely defined by the scorecard view definition and by the retrieved scorecard data, are independent of the data's dimensionality enabling persistence of the annotations with the data and definition even when the scorecard is reconfigured. The annotations may include a “bubble-up” feature, where a hierarchical structure of the scorecard is inherited by the annotations. Threaded discussions and updated document lists are enabled around the annotations with appropriate permissions and/or credentials.
摘要:
Disconnected authoring of business scorecards is enabled. Subscribers are enabled to author scorecards adding new elements, removing existing elements, and modifying content and/or properties of existing elements while disconnected from a server application managing the scorecards. Upon transitioning to a reconnected phase, configuration data for modified elements is compared to the original configuration data and differences resolved. New configuration data for the elements is then created based on the resolved differences. Modifications may be accepted based on time of change, permission attribute of the subscriber, and the like. Modified elements may be flagged in the scorecard presentation.
摘要:
An approach and a data structure for inheriting reporting metrics in a business logic system are provided. A scorecard structure includes a top level metric (scorecard) that receives aggregated scores from hierarchically structured lower level measures such as KPI's and objectives. Each KPI may be assigned target values and each target a status indicator. Upon selecting elements of the scorecard such as measures, targets, data sources, and the like, data associated with the elements including content and property information is retrieved. Elements are ordered according to the scorecard hierarchy and scored based on the order.
摘要:
Application independent rendering of scorecard metrics is provided. A hierarchy for scorecard metrics, such as KPI's, KPI groups, and objectives, is determined and data associated with each scorecard metric is retrieved based on the hierarchy. Scorecard calculation is performed based on the retrieved data and the hierarchy. A scorecard representation may then be generated based on the calculation and transformed into a format such that application independent reports can be generated based on the scorecard representation. The transform may include generating a document using Report Definition Language (RDL). The RDL document may then be forwarded to an application for report generation.
摘要:
A client may revise a balanced scorecard by adding, deleting and/or moving objects on a strategy map. Multiple clients may attempt to revise the strategy map simultaneously. Non-conflicting revisions are synchronized with the strategy map in a scorecard database. A conflicting revision may be generated when objects associated with one client's revisions cannot be reconciled with the objects associated with another client's revisions. Conflicting revisions may be resolved by giving one client's revisions priority over subsequent client revisions. Any identified zombie objects are removed from the strategy map before synchronization with the scorecard database. The revised strategy map is saved in the scorecard database. The revised objects are synchronized with the corresponding scorecard and any associated strategy maps in the scorecard database.
