Incorta empowers business users with SAP data and more
THE CHALLENGE
Accessing data and creating reports and dashboards was essential to helping the Al-Watania team stay on top of operations. The company’s previous BI solution was slow and often delivered inconsistencies that made executives question the validity of the information. Loading data and query execution took too long, and running dashboards in real time proved virtually impossible. Because the IT team had to rely on multiple SAP applications to develop the requested dashboards, the user interfaces were often complicated, making it difficult for business users, which further taxed costly IT resources.
THE SOLUTION
By implementing Incorta, over 50 business users across the organization have access to robust reporting and dashboards that draw from all corporate data systems and integrate with other BI visualization tools. Incorta uses direct data mapping for data sourcing, eliminating the unnecessary parts of ETL and allowing business users the ability to generate reports independently.
Data can be integrated from multiple enterprise sources, including SAP software to create up-to-the-minute reports that enable real-time action. And business users have the power to create their own reports and dashboards easily. This allows their CEO to receive daily, weekly and monthly dashboards to monitor the performance of all functions. At the same time, the manufacturing and operations team can monitor various parameters of livestock like weight, feed consumption, and other factors in real time to reduce loss and maximize productivity.
With the implementation of Incorta, users can see work orders and billable and non-billable work hours in seconds. When users log into EBS, the first thing they see is an Incorta dashboard, and they can seamlessly switch between Oracle transactions and Incorta analytics with a single sign-on (SSO). The SSO and the option to leverage roles and responsibilities already assigned to university users within EBS increases data security. And with the ability to click on individual work orders and make changes to its EBS transaction record (like adding hours or shifting due dates from within Incorta), users can work quickly and effectively.
