Absolve
Forecasting and Reporting—in one powerful package—without data cubes
Absolve from Data Command Ltd can give you reports in the format You want.
All your reports can be controlled through Absolve’s dashboard – tailored to your exact requirements. Absolve will work on any package that can export csv or is ODBC compliant.
Multi-dimensional reporting is a major strength.
Data Command Limited has been providing powerful, cost-effective budgeting alternatives since 1984 and now boasts a whole range of multi-dimensional modelling tools. These can provide significant benefits to users that spreadsheets cannot hope to challenge.
The design of these products is fundamentally different, having a database at the heart of the system, with the criteria for using that data stored separately. This allows your business to be modelled to produce sales volumes, pricing, currency and seasonality to predict revenue – and that is just the start. From here you can build models to reflect all parts of your business with as much detail as you wish.
This true multi-user system allow these models to be segmented enabling distributed budget holders to plan only those elements which relate to their budget, but at the centre, the plan is automatically consolidated to present the complete picture. By creating a mirror of the finance system in the planning model, the actual data can be modified at will (what-ifs) – actuals and budget information and the results populate the finance system model. The outcome is a comprehensive, integrated planning system that can easily produce the board reports, providing graphical representations of actual versus plan, without recourse to spreadsheets for the reporting function.
