A: We selected IFS because it is a very good transactional
system and while it does have reporting tools, it cannot provide
the same functionality as a bespoke analytical tool. We therefore
use Cognos alongside IFS to provide the variety of detailed
management information needed to effectively run our business.
With Cognos we can cut and dice information in any way we
want – you can see profitability by customer, by product,
by supplier, by currency, by period, etc. Previously we could
only see profit by purchase order and nothing else; it has
therefore greatly improved our decision making.
