Managing information hierarchies is an Achilles heel for IT and business users alike. It's not just a problem faced by a few organisations, it's a problem faced by every organisation worldwide and there is a growing momentum for organisations to solve this issue. Business users are becoming continually frustrated by reports, dashboards and visualizations that do not reflect the product line, cost centre or chart of accounts that they manage and IT professionals are continually being bombarded with requests from business users to make changes to information hierarchies.

Scenario for BusinessObjects™ takes an information-centric approach to the problem and enables business intelligence users to manage and manipulate information hierarchies directly within their BusinessObjects reports.

With Scenario for BusinessObjects you can:

• view and amend hierarchy information directly within your BusinessObjects report
• apply previously used hierarchies to a report
• remove the need to involve IT in the process of hierarchy management
