Educational Workshop

There’s a goldmine of data inside your JD Edwards system. But data is just a series of ones and zeroes without the tools to turn it into information.

In this hands-on workshop you will learn how to build interactive JD Edwards reports using modern BI tools. For illustrative purposes, we will use Preferred Strategies QuickLaunch and the free, cloud-based version of Microsoft Power BI as the BI tools.

Our instructor will lead you through a series of hands-on exercises through which you will create reports for common JDE business scenarios. With Power BI in the cloud and sample sales data, you will build an interactive sales dashboard including key performance indicators (KPIs), sales variance analysis, and ways to analyze gross profit by product, customer, and more.

• How to connect to sample JD Edwards ERP data for reporting and analytics
• About the modern, self-service approach to BI to easily create reports and dashboards for common business scenarios
• How to leverage the cloud for collaboration and distribution of content

What you’ll need to participate:
