– What is SQL Server Reporting?– Reporting Questions– Challenges– Benefits of Enterprise Reporting– Reporting Lifecycle– Reporting Show and Tell

What is SQL Server Reporting?• SQL Server Reporting Services enables organizations to transform raw

and valuable enterprise data into shared information for insightful, timely decisions at a lower total cost of ownership.

Reporting Questions• What reports do you currently use or create?• What data is important in these reports?• How do you use the information on these reports?• How do you (would you if you could) place parameters on

these reports?• How do you get reports today? • What type of routine/recurring analysis do you perform?• What data is used?• How often do you perform this analysis?• How do you get the data required?• What do you do with the data once you get it?

Challenges

• Manual Reporting from Multiple data sources• Manual reports are out of date as soon as they

are created.• Unclear Distribution Channels• Project Status Reports are usually not based

on true schedule updates

Benefits of Enterprise Reporting• It’s Free with your installation of SQL Server

2005 and higher• A centralized repository for your enterprise

posted on a SharePoint or Network site.• Greater visibility for your Executive
