Description

KPIs and Metrics That Need to Be Assessed During Finance Transformation


This IDC Perspective discusses KPIs and metrics that need to be assessed during finance transformation. It is more and more essential for BI tools and metrics/KPI dashboards to be implemented in the office of the CFO. BI tools and dashboards allow CFOs to track key financial performance indicators in real time, helping them swiftly detect trends, seize opportunities, and recognize potential threats. The office of the CFOs sets them and often does not revamp them on a recurring basis. We discuss the most opportune time to revamp as well as which metrics and KPIs are important for each area of the office of the CFO."You need to know where you start from to see if your investments in people, process, and technology are paying off for finance transformation. There are a lot of vendors that have vanity measurements which are hard to prove internally once a system or process has been changed and showing its effect on the goals of finance transformation at your company, so start measuring before you start any process or technology changes." — Heather Herbst, research director, Worldwide Office of the CFO, IDC

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
