"...our IT department is freed from the reporting requests that stream in from the various departments. This means all our employees have quicker access to information and more processing flexibility."

Sennheiser

At the advice of Windhoff Software Services, the Sennheiser company decided to deploy Business Objects solutions. Its objective was to allow users in the various operational departments to generate their own reports. Sennheiser wanted to implement a faster and more flexible reporting solution and to offload processing of requests from the various departments, a task currently handled by the IT department.

Given the large amount of reports produced regularly by the entire company, and at very specific times, Sennheiser opted for Business Objects Enterprise. This solution allows automated production and distribution of the reports created using Crystal Reports. Sennheiser updates them automatically several times per day, month and quarter. They are then automatically exported to Excel and made available to management control for processing. Business Objects Enterprise also allows other reports to be created automatically in PDF format. These reports are sent to their recipients by e-mail.

Heinz-Jürgen Fischer from Sennheiser explains the process: "Since the reports are generated by Crystal Reports from Business Objects in the departments and automatically distributed using Business Objects Enterprise, our IT department is freed from the reporting requests that stream in from the various departments. This means all our employees have quicker access to information and more processing flexibility. Windhoff won us over with its excellent consulting and training services."
