Datatel Dashboards

Executives and senior managers are demanding critical information in the form of dashboards. Powerful dashboards ensure that:

• you are monitoring strategic numbers/factors;
• others know what those numbers/factors are;
• everyone that should see those numbers/factors can see them; and
• you have confidence in the data used to build those numbers.

Your data must summarize the necessary metrics to determine the health and strength of your institution. A critical component of the Reporting and Operating Analytics solution, Datatel Dashboards make it possible for institutional leaders to easily monitor key performance indicators (KPIs), to ensure that your institution stays on track to achieve its goals, and to make adjustments as soon as they are needed.

Datatel has created a series of dashboards incorporating the strategy of higher education with the powerful database of record, Colleague, to provide actionable information. We know the data, where it resides, and how to map it into the dashboards, so that work is already done. You simply review what is there, define the thresholds that are appropriate for your institution, and begin making decisions with this important information visible where it should be.

The dashboards available for delivery with the SAP Business Objects Web Intelligence reporting application answer business questions for your institution.  Review the list of dashboards along the left.
