Work samples 
(The pictures will zoom automatically on mouse-over. Click to open an enlarged picture.)

The following work samples (in German) are from Lars Schubert.

Example 1

Interactive dashboard based on SAP BO Xcelsius
Here an existing SAP BO example “Analysis by Region“ was implemented for Xcelsius and SAP Crystal Dashboard Design with the graphomate Add-on. This add-on made it possible to easily create a dashboard in accordance with SUCCESS. The highlight: The level of interactivity – which is the case here in the web application - remains intact even in PowerPoint.

Example 2

Presentation with SAP BO Xcelsius (I)
This presentation was created with SAP BO Xcelsius in just a few minutes based on an Excel table using the graphomate Basic Add-On.
The SUCCESS Rules of -Notation are applied implicitly without requiring the user to be familiar with them.

Example 3

Presentation with SAP BO Xcelsius (II)
Another presentation, which was created with the help of the graphomate Basic Add-On. Many new chart types are used here:
+(Double) columns and bars
+Absolute and percentage deviation charts
+Integrated deviation columns
+Needles
All charts can be aligned both horizontally and vertically. This is carried out with just a few mouse clicks and simple links to an Excel worksheet. The export to PowerPoint is completed in a few seconds.
