What data sources are available and which universes are in use How much users create their own reports or the degree to which standard reports have been used Typical query response time System availability Number of defined, trained, and active users Product architecture and end-user tools to access the data (Desktop Intelligence or BusinessObjects classic, Crystal Reports, InfoView, Web Intelligence, Dashboard Manager, and so on) How business-oriented is the universe versus too much intelligence built into individual reports The degree to which the universe and standard reports can answer common business questions versus users having to create user-defined objects and report variables User satisfaction with the current situation Even if BusinessObjects XI is the only BI tool in your company, it faces competition Your job is to identify and understand the competition to articulate why and in what circumstances BusinessObjects XI is a better solution Recall from 1 the history of business intelligence You are trying to change years of decision-making processes within a short time frame Resistance to change is an automatic barrier Users may be accustomed to accessing information via paper-based reports, hand-delivered to their desk When information is difficult to get to, gut-feel decision-making is the competition If you are deploying BusinessObjects XI against a data warehouse, then the ERP or transaction system may be the competition If you are trying to get decision-makers to retrieve their own reports or to access key indicators via a dashboard, the competition is the phone call to a business analyst or to an assistant who can print the reports for them A SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) is an effective tool in evaluating the current situation in terms of BusinessObjects XI s internal competition It is also a necessary first step in determining what product capabilities you can and should deliver and what benefits you will emphasize in promotions Tables 4-1 and 4-2 give two sample SWOT analyses The first one is for a young data warehouse deployment in which BusinessObjects is not the only BI tool The second one is for a mature BusinessObjects deployment that has stalled The purpose of the situation analysis is to understand where you are today so that you can identify opportunities for improvement over the current situation and/or the competitive information sources In both SWOT analyses, slow queries are a weakness that has caused a number of threats Slow queries can be a major barrier for a successful implementation and are often identified as a reason for low BI adoption With the ever greater immediacy the Internet provides, users want answers to business questions instantaneously, at the speed of thought Explanations regarding indexes or query complexity are deemed irrelevant The fact that you are providing them with more flexibility than did previous information systems is quickly forgotten.

in dollars In Europe, money is represented in euros To handle the cultural and language differences, C# uses format providers A format provider defines the way that a format specifier will be interpreted A format provider is created by implementing the IFormatProvider interface, which defines the GetFormat( ) method Format providers are predefined for the built-in numeric types and many other types in the NET Framework In general, you can format data without having to worry about specifying a format provider, and format providers are not examined further in this book To format data, include a format specifier in a call to a method that supports formatting The use of format specifiers was introduced in 3, but is worthwhile reviewing here The discussion that follows uses ConsoleWriteLine( ), but the same basic approach applies to other methods that support formatting To format data using WriteLine( ), use the version of WriteLine( ) shown here: WriteLine( format string , arg0, arg1, , argN); In this version, the arguments to WriteLine( ) are separated by commas and not + signs The format string contains two items: regular, printing characters that are displayed as-is, and format items (also called format commands) Format items take this general form: {argnum, width: fmt} Here, argnum specifies the number of the argument (starting from zero) to display The minimum width of the field is specified by width, and the format specifier is represented by a string in fmt Both width and fmt are optional Thus, in its simplest form, a format item simply indicates which argument to display For example, {0} indicates arg0, {1} specifies arg1, and so on During execution, when a format item is encountered in the format string, the corresponding argument, as specified by argnum, is substituted and displayed Thus, it is the position of a format item within the format string that determines where its matching data will be displayed It is the argument number that determines which argument will be formatted If fmt is present, then the data is displayed using the specified format Otherwise, the default format is used If width is present, then output is padded with spaces to ensure that the minimum field width is attained If width is positive, output is right-justified If width is negative, output is left-justified The remainder of this chapter examines formatting and format specifiers in detail.
