Case Study: Mountaire Corporation trims reporting time with Spreadsheet Server

Agricultural Food Processing Company Trims Nearly 1/3 Of Time from Reporting Process

Mountaire Corporation, an agricultural food processing company, was struggling with slow, manual reporting processes in Oracle E-Business Suite. The finance team faced challenges accessing data, rekeying ERP data into spreadsheets, consolidating GL and non-GL information, and producing accurate reports in a timely manner, with heavy dependence on IT. Spreadsheet Server was the reporting tool used to address these issues.

By implementing Spreadsheet Server from insightsoftware, Mountaire replaced Oracle Discoverer and enabled finance users to build reports directly in Excel, including fixed assets reporting through QueryDesigner. The result was more efficient month-end close cycles, with more than 30% trimmed from the previous reporting process and up to 25% of IT support freed up.
