Postgraduate

This subject introduces students to concepts and application in data warehousing, one of the key topics in modern business information management. In times in which the filtering, aggregation and analysis of external (e.g. World Wide Web) and internal information have become a critical success factor in business, data warehouses and analytical applications (OLAP) are booming and have become frequently used tools of many accountants, sales analysts, etc. This subject guides students through the complete data warehouse planning and implementation process, and familiarises them with the specifics of multi-dimensional reporting. SAP solutions are used in order to practise the procedures in data warehouse design and in order to demonstrate the application of information generated in data warehouses for management accounting and decision making.
