Case Study: Global Apparel Retailing Company achieves standardized reporting, faster close process and deeper store-level insights with DatAvail

Global Apparel Retailling Company - Customer Case Study

Global Apparel Retailling Company engaged DatAvail to address challenging reporting, budgeting, and forecasting across its retail store network. The retailer needed to standardize financial management reporting into a single centralized application, simplify and standardize budget/forecast processes for store entities, automate actuals uploads to minimize manual data entry, and improve overall data visibility. DatAvail proposed Oracle Hyperion solutions, deploying Hyperion Essbase and Hyperion Financial Data Quality Management (FDQM).

DatAvail configured Essbase and FDQM to collect, map, validate, and load financial data, built user-friendly report and analysis templates, and created multiple consolidated and store-level views. As a result, Global Apparel Retailling Company can perform monthly multidimensional analysis and drill into KPIs and raw data at the store level while retaining country rollups, access data more easily with less manual manipulation, and achieve a faster close process. DatAvail’s implementation delivered greater visibility, flexibility, and more efficient financial reporting.
