Advanced Mobile Reporting

Softer Ingenuity was asked to assist in developing a proof of concept for a large business enterprise interested in delivering financial reports viewable on executive's mobile devices, specifically the Blackberry. The business intelligence tool already in use by the company was Business Objects, and they wanted to see if the Business Objects Mobile option would be suitable for their needs.

Softer Ingenuity created the Oracle database tables for the BusinessObjects Universe, imported test data provided in Excel spreadsheets and used BusinessObjects Web Intelligence tool to create various waterfall charts and scatterplots according to the client's specification. Softer Ingenuity employed best practices for developing reports for mobile devices and helped the client understand the limitations to viewing reports on a mobile device.
