Best Practice Accelerator
The Best Practice Accelerator is a solution which combines planning with analytic capabilities. Including common requirements gathered in the light of experience and best practices, such as start pages or upload and data entry of exchange rates, it avoids the constant need to rebuild similar features, thus reducing redundant work and saving time.
Among other practical functions, the Best Practice Accelerator allows you to upload from Excel sheets to easily update dimension structures and data, including currency conversion and version management. It also offers possibilities for workflow and user access rights management, as well as dynamic start page options.
The Best Practice Accelerator is available in the Jedox Marketplace. You can see all the details of how to install models in Jedox here.
