Jedox is an Excel based financial planning software. Financial data is often difficult to audit and unreliable because of ineffective controls in Excel. The issues surface in overworked teams, manually reconciling data scattered across multiple systems and countries. Traditional BI/PM software needed specialised technical teams to develop and maintain them. Waterfall implementations meant Finance filled out requirement documents, explained basic finance concepts to the technical team - and then waited for the result. The business process (that Finance was still ultimately responsible for) was no longer under Finance’s control. To manage this, agile companies adopt the Jedox Suite. Jedox gives you unified planning, consolidation and reporting in one intuitive solution. Knowledge Management Solutions , an authorized Jedox partner in Singapore, is having a free event to introduce this great platform to finance specialists in Singapore at 3pm - 5pm, on 28th August 2015.

The core feature of QlikView is an in-memory, associative data model which feeds the visualization in a very unique way. In a traditional business intelligence application, the data visualization layer interacts with data through queries which are basically scripts executed by the platform. So if you for example select a country to drill-down to the sales numbers in that country, the data visualization layer runs a script, queries the data, retrieves the data from the data layer and updates the charts and reports in the screen. QlikView on the other hand do not use this query mechanism. Application and data layer are tightly integrated in QlikView and data relationships are handled in engine level not application level. This means the QlikView charts and reports are integrated with in-memory data model and they know how to filter themselves when user drills down. The mechanism above help QlikView developers to write significantly less software scripts which shortens the development an...
