Optimization of Reporting Processes

  • Practice
  • Team

Laboratoires Pierre Fabre is a French pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetics group.

  • Technical environment
Unified reporting
across all entity perimeters and territories
Easier controls
and reconciled discrepancies
Reduced times
for loading, consolidation and data delivery
CHALLENGES
  • Simplify the existing architecture by merging the CORPO and FRANCE reporting cubes.​
  • HFM splits monthly into two cubes :​
  • The CORPO cube contains all group entities for a consolidated France perimeter.​
  • The FRANCE cube covers the France entities on a detailed geographic perimeter.​
  • Degraded performance due to many axes of analysis.​
  • Significant volumetrics that impact the availability of applications.​
SOLUTION
  • Optimize access to reporting data and facilitate complete and detailed perimeter access through a single application.​
  • Streamline master data management by eliminating double handling.​
  • Factually reconcile the France perimeter currently heterogeneous between the CORPO and FRANCE cubes and a source of discrepancies.​
  • Reduce interfaces from and to HFM.​
  • Simplify the technical administration processes.​
BENEFITS
  • Unified reporting across all entity perimeters and territories within a single repository.​
  • Easier controls and reconciled discrepancies.​
  • Clear improvements:​
  • Reduced loading times.​
  • Reduced consolidation times.​
  • Faster data delivery.​
  • Simplified master data management.​
  • Fewer incoming and outgoing interfaces.​
  • Reduced downtime due to faster backup times and no restructuring delays.​
