1. QlikView Customer Snapshot – MPREIS
The challenges
Efficient management of the company throughout its divisions, for example range policy, logistics, human resources and finances
Analysis of bulk data (about 600 million data records)
Self-service business intelligence for around 300 branch employees instead of inflexible and virtually meaningless reports
“I’ve been waiting for a solution like QlikView for the past 15 years. Ideas that were once pushed into a drawer can at last be realised, by the departments, without IT support”.
Karl Dörflinger, Head of Control,
MPREIS Warenvertriebs
The solution
Evaluation of data from a wide variety of systems in QlikView:
Range analysis: how are individual items selling in individual branches? Have fresh products been bought which couldn’t be sold (wastage)? How large are stocks of individual items?
Human resources analysis: analysis of absenteeism and fluctuations, dependent on branches, branch managers, and job.
Other issues: logistics, purchasing, financial controlling
Linking of data from Oracle, BMD Fibu, Professional Planner and various other sources
