IBM Planning Analytics Key Capabilities
In-Memory Database Architecture
Data is uploaded into RAM for lightning-fast access, as opposed to traditional query-based architecture of the RDBMS.
Single Source of the Truth
All data is sourced from a centralized repository which alleviates key errors and inaccurate cell calculations.
Writeback Capability for Integrated Planning
Users can input budget data directly to the plan while GL Actuals data is synched and displays alongside as read-only.
Version Control
Multiple iterations or scenarios of the plan can be produced, adjusted, and evaluated without the proliferation of separate files and workbooks.
Self Service Dashboarding
End-Users can produce dashboards that bring together tables of data with synchronized graphical displays for quick insights on performance.
Planning Analytics Workspace
The new Planning Analytics Workspace (PAW) incorporates a dashboarding interface where end-users can easily build and synchronize visualizations of their data alongside traditional tabular numeric displays.
Microsoft Excel Add-In
Die-Hards can still rely on spreadsheets as their weapon of choice; centralized Planning Analytics data can be viewed, analyzed, and modified in Excel.
