SAS/MDDB Server Administrator's Guide |
To exploit your MDDBs, you can use the MDDB-enabled objects in SAS/EIS software
for a large variety of multidimensional reports. SAS/EIS software
includes a wide range of business reporting objects that have been specifically
optimized for use with MDDBs. These reporting objects, which provide a choice
of styles for dynamic display and interactive analysis, include the following:
- 3D Business Charts
- Bubble
Charts
- Graphical Variance Reports
- Maps
- Multidimensional Business
Trends
- Multidimensional Charts
- Multidimensional Pie Charts
- Multidimensional
Reports
- Organizational Charts.
The multidimensional report objects have multiple levels
with built-in drill-down capabilities for fast navigation through data. Using
these objects and customizable viewers, users can
- navigate through the data
- perform analyses by adding
calculations at run
time
- dynamically reach through to detail data anywhere
on the network.
For details on using an MDDB with SAS/EIS objects,
refer to the SAS/EIS online Help.
