re: RIP PerformancePoint Planning

Hey Alan,

Thanks for your update.

So, no new features as part of SP3 - Do you think anyone has told Guy Weismantel that yet?

As for stepping out of Enterprise PBM.. Well, there are no words..

Cheers

Sacha

Good post Sacha.

A couple points:

I was told specifically in my conference call that SP3 would contain no new features, only bug fixes.

I was also told that Microsoft officially is no longer in the Enterprise performance management marketspace. However, unless the Dynamics group comes to the rescue with some solution then Microsoft is not even in the mid-market performance management marketspace.

Hi Alan,

Version 7 was available at the BI Conference - I think that's where we got our copy.

I'm not sure of the official public release date. As for SP2 - no, i don't think that will be part of it - it's not included on the version we have :-(

Hi Sacha,

Look forward to seeing the demo!

Any idea when then the Version 7 of the VPC will be released? I am assuming after SP2 so it can take advantage of SQL 2008?

re: PerformancePoint Planning - Currency Conversion (Triangulation)

sachatomey — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 10:35:10 GMT

Thanks and yes - you are correct, if you identify the reporting currency and setup exchange rates between multiple currencies and the single reporting currency then you will avoid relying on triangulation.

Triangulation tends to occur on exception, when a manager for example requests a report in a non default reporting currency and the direct exchange rate is not available.

Hi Sacha,

A good informative post.

If we identify the reporting Currency and only post the exchange rate information for multiple currencies against this single reporting currency, then we should not be having the problem of 'Triangular Arbitrage' right? As there will be only one path for currency conversion from any to any currency.

Thanks,

Ajay
