REALIZE AN ABC ANALYSIS
1 Business Scenario
You have an InfoCube with Orders on a header and item level, customers and ordered quantity. In a
reporting szenario you want to create a web application where you graphically answer the question
"Do I make 80% of my ordered quantity with only 30% of my customers?"
2 The Result
The result is a web report with a chart and a table. The chart immediately shows, that in this example
30% of your customers account for almost 80% of your order quantity.
In the data table you get detailed information about your customers. The column "Customer %"
shows that one customer is about 5% of your total customers, i.e. you have 22 customers altogether.
In the "Quantity %" column you can see how much of your ordered quantity this specific customer is
responsible for. Both columns show accumulated values (running totals).
