Roles & Responsibilities

As an Umoja ECC user, you are assigned one of the two general roles, defining the level of access extended to you within the Umoja BI portal:

BI User

8

All Umoja ECC users are provided a standard level of access to the Umoja BI portal. ] This is a basic level of access to the Umoja BI portal, enabling you to view standard (WebI) BI reports. The Umoja Enterprise Role assigned to an Umoja user dictates the level of access provided to the BI portal. Select folders and reports may not display, based on the specified level of access. As a standard BI User, you can generate and save reports to your personal Favorites folder on the portal, but not within public or shared folders.

Roles & Responsibilities

As an Umoja ECC user, you are assigned one of the two general roles, defining the level of access extended to you within the Umoja BI portal:

BI Power User

9

A select subset of BI Users are also given the ability to generate additional types of custom BI reports. Typically, BI Power Users are Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) or Reporting Analysts. These individuals are provided access to WebI and Analysis Area tool. They can generate more complex BI reports, and save custom-crafted reports to public folders for standard BI Users to access/reference. The Umoja Enterprise Role assigned to an Umoja user dictates the level of access provided to the BI portal. Select folders and reports may not display, based on the specified level of access. However, they do not have rights to: • Modify or delete delivered reports • Save reports to delivered public folders

BI Overview

10

Umoja Business Intelligence (BI) refers to the data warehouse and reporting tools that are used to support decision-making across the organization.

Analytics Metrics Reporting

Umoja BI consists of components to support data management and modeling through the use of analytical tools. It provides UN with a historical and current view of operations.

Page 11: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

Copyright © United Nations Copyright © United Nations

Defining Umoja Business Intelligence Reporting

11

Umoja BI reporting:

• Provides historical and current reporting tools specific to select operations within UN

• Enables you to obtain UN specific information without having to resort to Microsoft Excel to manually enter and analyze data using formulas and tables

• Is an enterprise-wide information hub that enables analysis of data from Umoja and several other data sources

• Provides powerful, intuitive tools to analyze and report data

• Represents approximately a 24-hour lag in the data entered into Umoja and other sources

• Provides dynamic filtering, advanced navigation and complex drill-down functionalities

• Is available to create more detailed and analytical reports than those created in Umoja ECC and SRM

Page 12: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

Copyright © United Nations Copyright © United Nations

Why Use Business Intelligence?

12

Umoja BI is used to:

• Perform ad-hoc analysis and formatted reporting

• Combine data from multiple sources that would take time to consolidate in Umoja ECC or SRM

• Quickly summarize transactions to identify trends and compare results over time

• Produce reports that combine data from multiple systems for example, Umoja and IMIS

• Add graphical elements, such as charts, to provide visual representation of data

Page 13: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

Accessing Umoja BI Portal Umoja Access Screen

To Access the Umoja BI Portal, you must first logon to the Umoja access system using the credentials provided to you by the EIDMS team. The Umoja BI Portal is accessible in the same Umoja Citrix tool as the Umoja ECC, both of which can be accessed by directing your browser to http://login.umoja.un.org.

Umoja Reporting

Umoja offers three distinct systems providing different sets of reports, all available via the Umoja Citrix tool:

15

Via Umoja ECC Via Umoja BI Via Umoja SRM

Reporting functions in Umoja ECC and SRM are similar in nature (with respect to the type of information and formats available)

Page 16: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

Copyright © United Nations Copyright © United Nations

Reports via Umoja BI Portal

Umoja BI reports are:

• Created by accessing information from several data sources (some of which are not part of the Umoja implementation)

• Not based on real-time data due to an approximate lag of 24 hours. This lag exists because it takes time to reorganize data to support complex reporting. Automated programs extract data from Umoja ECC and SRM and update it into Umoja BI. Such extractions of data allow for very fast retrieval of information for further analysis

• Are accessed via the BI portal by selecting the appropriate folder and link

• Slightly more graphical in their presentation of data

Examples of Umoja BI reports:

• Budget Consumption report

• Flexible Real Estate Cash Flow report

Note: Umoja Enterprise Roles, combined with your assigned BI User role, drive access to these reports.

16

Page 17: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

Copyright © United Nations Copyright © United Nations

Reports via Umoja ECC and SRM

Umoja ECC and SRM reports are:

• SAP reports that have been configured for the purpose of the Umoja implementation

• Real-time and available across various functional areas

• Typically accessed using a specific T-code

• Largely confined to data directly entered in Umoja ECC or SRM

• Typically operational and relatively simple reports (lists of data from a particular module within Umoja). Some allow drill-down to the source transactions used on a day-to-day basis to support operations. Common usage of such simple reports is to review the status of a particular document or look for a specific entry

Examples of Umoja ECC and SRM reports:

• Earmarked Funds Journal report

• Cost Center Line Items report

• Purchase Order report

17

Note: Umoja Enterprise Roles drive access to Umoja ECC and SRM reports.

Umoja BI Reporting Umoja ECC/SRM Reporting

Data is refreshed on a daily basis – no real-time availability of data Advanced analytical capabilities available on any object (slice and dice, drill-down, conditional reporting and Analysis Area) Several functions available to customize report views and layouts. Graphing (visuals) available for select types of reports

Real-time reporting Data is available immediately after it is entered into Umoja ECC or SRM. This data reflects the current values in Umoja, updated on a regular basis Limited analytical capabilities, based on pre-defined options (drill-down and filtering pre-set fields) Limited ability to customize report layouts

Quick Storage Systems – Umoja ECC and SRM

19

Similar to a filing cabinet, Umoja ECC and SRM are referred to as Quick Storage systems.

Transactions are quickly stored in a chronological order with sequential numbering, based on the date they were carried out.

For example, if you create a SRM Shopping Cart number with document number 11, the next available Shopping Cart document number available to be assigned would be 12.

Umoja ECC and SRM both provide the ability to quickly and simply store information, based on the fact that they are recorded immediately after the last transaction is carried out.

Quick Retrieval Systems – Umoja BI

20

Umoja BI is known to as a Quick Retrieval system. The Umoja BI system functions like a cube pulling information from multiple filing cabinets, for display and reporting purposes. In many ways, it is analogous to creating copies of a transaction to be stored and presented using multiple reporting views. For example, you may want to view transactions by vendor, cost, balance or a combination of different factors not easily reportable in Quick Storage systems (Umoja ECC and SRM). It takes more time to store such intricate combinations of information. However, the retrieval and reporting functions are extremely fast. This is why the Umoja BI system is referred to as a Quick Retrieval system.

Web Intelligence Reports

Once BI Power Users have defined which data points and view they wish to share with BI Users, that Analysis Area can be either saved off for later review, or formally converted to a Formatted WebI report.

22

Page 23: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

Copyright © United Nations Copyright © United Nations

Analysis Area Tool

The On-line Analytical Processing (OLAP) – Analysis Area is equivalent to an online tool which allows you to manipulate data using defined criteria. From such data manipulation activities, BI Power Users create Formatted WebI reports, which BI Users can reference and review. The Analysis Area tool is quite flexible, as it allows you to define reporting criteria, create visuals, and change data inputs in real time.

23

Page 24: NV203 – Umoja BI Navigation

BI Portal Tool: OLAP & Analysis Areas

OLAP is a general term used to describe the ability to generate reports from an online database in any desired format.

Within Umoja, OLAP reports are referred to as Analysis Areas.

Analysis Areas:

• Serve as the foundation to create custom WebI reports

• Enable you to evaluate multi-dimensional data interactively from multiple perspectives

• Consists of three basic analytical operations:

• Aggregation (roll-up)

• Drill-down

• Slicing and dicing

BI Report Example: Analysis Area Tool

Analysis Areas:

• Are generated in response to BI Power User’s chosen parameters

• Allow you to play the report authoring role. Using this variant, you can:

• Analyze data ad hoc

• Create query views

• Save and distribute the result of the ad hoc analysis

25

By default, you do not provide formatting options. If there are formatting needs, a BI Power User can save the report as an Analysis View and open that Analysis View in WebI to add formatting, for example, logo, colour scheme, report breaks or complex formulas.
