We’ve been lucky enough (or we rather hassled enough people in MSFT for long enough!) to have been participating in the Office 2010 technical preview for the last couple of months but as it’s all been under NDA haven’t been able to blog about it. ...
One of our customers had read Nick Barclay's post on dynamic sets in SSAS 2008 and was hoping that this would mean that you could create KPI's with dynamic dimension members. Well the answer is yes and no. It's already possible...
Correction: My badly titled post suggested this was the list of fixes rather than new features. Unless the read-mes ( Planning and Monitoring ) are still being updated, there's no real surprises in terms of new features in Service Pack 2 for PerformancePoint...
So here we are in Seattle at the BI conference. Day 1 and it's been great to catch up with some old faces and meet some new ones. We were promised some big news today and as is being reported by Chris , Mosha , Marco and all, we weren't...
.....for us so-called experts ;) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Microsoft-PerformancePoint-2007-Dummies/dp/0470239662/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1222718438&sr=8-5
As Sacha has mentioned, he, Jeremy and I will all be attending the BI conference in less than two weeks time in Seattle. Last year was a great chance to meet some of the BI community and attend some really good BI sessions but was (unsurprisingly...
I was a little surprised to see that ( as of June 2008 ) there are already 329 people certified in PerformancePoint (i.e. have passed the 70-556 exam) and whilst it's not the hardest exam (IMO compared to 445 and 446) it's a good sign that PPS...
Alyson Powell Erwin from the PPS Monitoring team did a great webcast yesterday on building advanced dashboards. If, like me, you were unable to watch it live you can view the recording here . This was actually the last of a series of PPS webcasts...
On the properties tab of every object in PPS Monitoring you will find a permissions section that allows you to assign either reader or editor rights. These permissions actually relate to two quite different areas: What you will see when you view the deployed...
So I was going to do a post on displaying a reporting services report in a PPSM Dashboard but then realised then that the PPS team had already done that: http://blogs.msdn.com/performancepoint/archive/2007/07/20/how-do-i-integrate-ssrs-reports-with-dashboard...
Thanks to all those who have requested a copy of our Planning web part and extra thanks to those who've provided feedback. Hopefully we'll get a chance to implement some of your great suggestions in the next release. We've released a V1.1...
Christmas came early last week when a copy of the First PPS book to be published dropped through our letter box - Thanks Nick and Adrian :) For those of you aren't familiar with Rational Guides the format is designed to get you up and running with...
I was invited to Redmond last Friday to help with preparation of the new 71-556 PerformancePoint exam. I can't give away too much about what we were doing without violating my NDA but I got to meet some very cool people from MS and beyond: (Left to...
Update: Version 1.1 is now available So the Adatis dev team have been busy ! As I mentioned in a previous post , one of our clients wanted to be able to show a user's active PPS Planning assignments in their Sharepoint Portal in the same way you can...
There's lot of info out there about setting up the application pool identity so that you can set up data sources for dashboards ( For example ). However there seems to be very little about the various roles that are used in the Dashboard Designer...
