Hyperion Dashboard Development Services Hyperion Interactive Reporting

Convolution Systems creates custom Hyperion Dashboard Development Services (Dashboard Development Services) is a set of tools that add on to Hyperion Interactive Reporting, a module of Oracle Business Intelligence Suite Enterprise Edition Plus.
Dashboard Development Services provides a set of tools that enable users to create, deploy and maintain dashboards quickly and with little coding involved. Dashboard Development Services consists of two main modules, as described below.


Dashboard Architect

an integrated development environment (IDE) for Interactive Reporting Studio that lets you rapidly build, test, debug and integrate Interactive Reporting applications, dramatically increasing developer efficiency and productivity. Dashboard Architect highlights:

  • Provides powerful facilities for creating, editing and documenting source code
  • Allows you to set and step through break points, examine and set the state of your variables and object model
  • Allows you to interact with your source code in real time
  • Allows you to check your code into third party source control systems

Define, Measure, Monitor, and Communicate Strategy and Performance Executives and managers today receive numerous reports and information about the state of their business—yet their business plans often fail to yield the expected results. Why?

  • Mired in volumes of disconnected information, decision makers often have no way to quickly and accurately identify and eliminate activities that don’t add value to the company

Often senior managers don’t have an easy way to measure and monitor strategic performance indicators—or an effective method to communicate goals and objectives. As a result, too much focus can be placed on financial indicators and lagging measures of performance, while not enough emphasis is given to critical operational metrics and key performance indicators (KPIs). How do you ensure that your KPIs are linked to your strategy and objectives? And how do you regularly track progress?

  • To regularly monitor and measure performance, senior managers require a link between their company’s strategic and operational plans. Oracle Hyperion Performance Scorecard—one of Oracle’s performance management applications—can help you define a methodology-neutral strategy and measure performance against goals, monitor progress on a regular basis, and communicate across your entire enterprise.

Dashboard Studio

a wizard-driven dashboard development tool for Oracle's Hyperion Interactive Reporting that lets you rapidly build dashboards without writing any code. Dashboard Studio highlights:

  • Customizable Templates—contains the code and layouts necessary for dashboard creation
  • Dashboard Studio Wizard—guides users through 8 easy steps to create a dashboard
  • Merge/Import Utility—allows parallel development and brings sections from disparate sources together
  • Optimize Utility—enables you to perform advanced editing options on dashboards
  • Update Utility—updates deployed dashboards to take on new features or bug fixes without having to recreate
  • Components—additional features that can be merged into dashboards
  • Test and debug code with breakpoints and stack traces to verify correct operations and fix faulty behavior
  • Create an Interactive Reporting document from the project and deploy it in production Environments
