If data is the name of the game, then capturing will be the players and reporting will be the coaches.
Building quality data does not just happen. There are 3 major things to look at:
1. Infrastructure: Have I set up my ERP system well enough to enable my business data to be captured in a sensible manner?
2. Capturing: Do I have the right mix of people, policies and systems to capture my business data accurately and efficiently?
3. Reporting: Do I have effective tools and KPI measure to consistently provide quality report for me and my management team to make decisions on?
If you have not addressed all 3 the areas above you are not fully engaged in the data game and your business data will lack in some way or other.
At MyBI we have a passion for Pastel Partner and Xpress data. We have even developed Apps to help our customers capture and report more efficiently.
