In our ongoing series, our CEO Michael Olschimke discusses a question from the audience:
“Regarding the information delivery perspective where the business user likes to have stable reports, is it correct to say that each unique frequency of a required business snapshot date (where the snapshot date is a timestamp), will have its own filter column in the snapshot control table? E.g. weekly, monthly, but also more specific ones to suit a particular business process, like in education the beginning of the nth quartile week to ensure all grades achieved are registered?”
He discusses the importance of having unique filter columns in the snapshot control table for each distinct frequency of a required business snapshot date.
By customizing snapshot date frequencies to suit different business processes, organizations can enhance the accuracy and relevance of their reporting mechanisms.
Michael’s insights highlight the strategic importance of managing snapshot dates effectively to optimize information delivery and drive better decision-making.
