Business challengeIt is challenging for information workers to get a comprehensive view of their tasks or to have a central point for managing their work. Tasks are stored across applications and systems, and even in the case where all tasks are stored within a single system, information can still be scattered. Work management Service applications provides functionality to aggregate tasks to central placeUsers can go to view and track their work and to-dosTasks are accessible from each users personal siteTechnical background and configurationService application doesn’t have any configuration options in Central AdministrationAccessed and used directly programmatically by out of the box functionalitiesOut of the box task aggregation with Microsoft SharePoint Products, Microsoft Exchange Server, and Microsoft Project ServerFor example, users can edit tasks from Exchange Server on a mobile phone, and the Work Management Service aggregates tasks to the My Tasks page in personal siteImplementation is based on provider model, so that additional systems maybe integrated to same architecture in future
New FeaturesData exploration improvements with additional commandsBetter integration with SQL Server Analyses Services data or PowerPivot modelsField list and field well support added to excel services for easier PivotChart and PivotTable controlCalculated measures and members supported in web renderingEnhanced timeline controls for renderingApplication BI Servers supportBusiness Intelligence Center updateTouch and Device SupportExcel Services in SharePoint allows users to directly save their workbooks and publish their reports to a SharePoint site, which will render the workbooks in the browser. This feature now supports a higher level of parity between the browser and the Excel client with features like the field well and quick explore, as well as utilizing the full features of SharePoint such as collaborative editing.Excel has traditionally offered a number of basic data cleansing capabilities, but with Excel 2013 we have added some clever tools to enhance this experience. With the new Flash Fill feature, Excel will intelligently find the patterns of my data and suggest to fill the remaining cells. The Quick Analysis feature allows users to preview different conditional formatting, or instantly identify duplicate or unique values, as well as add recommended charts according to my data.Pivot Tables and Charts are now de-coupled, so it is possible to create separate charts without having to create a table beforehand. There is also a new slicer called the Timeline, which automatically detects the time dimension in your data, and helps filter the data accordingly. It is now easy to use pure drill down and drill through capabilities with the Quick Explore feature. It grants the ability to quickly create trend charts to display data over time.Power View Native feature in ExcelPerform interactive data explorationShare reports with your colleaguesSurface KPIs on dashboardsBrowser basedData exploration, visualization, and presentation experience Aimed at users of all levelsAnother major addition to Microsoft’s Self-Service BI platform is Power View in Excel and SharePoint. Power View is a highly interactive, browser-based data exploration, visualization, and presentation experience for users of all levels—from business executives to information workers. First introduced with SQL Server 2012, Power View now empowers anyone to visually explore data, easily create interactive visualizations, and effortlessly present and share reports—all within the familiarity of Excel and SharePoint. Self-Service BI needs to go beyond individual insight. It should empower users to work together to share insights and develop them collectively. With SharePoint, all of these powerful Self-Service BI capabilities are seamlessly extended into a collaborative BI platform for sharing of insights and working together to develop insights even further. SharePoint enables collaborative browser-based data exploration, visualization, and presentation experiences. For example, executives and business users can monitor and discuss information through collaborative BI Dashboards, enabling them to make better decisions using scorecards and social features. Power View as standalone version in SharePoint was an exciting introduction to the world of visualizations, but now that is has been embedded as a native feature in Excel, the opportunities are limitless. This feature allows users to create interactive reports with intuitive charts, grids and filters to help define insights and share with others.PowerPivotNative Modeling in ExcelSelf-Service BIAnalyze large data setsObserve trendsThe popularPowerPivot feature is now thedata modeling engine native in Excel, so it is no longer necessary to download the separate the add-in, as it can now be simply activated in the add-in menu. Excel continues to enhance its support for connecting to various data sources. Userscan connect to traditional data sources such as various databases on premise as well as in the cloud, as well as various data feeds and flat files. PowerPivot pioneered the self-service BI concept, by allowing Excel to hold more than millions of rows of data in a compressed analytical format for high performance calculations within memory. It is now being used to create complex relationships and hierarchies to design your data model according to your business. For example, userscan create custom measures using DAX formulas directly in Excel as well as add custom aggregations as well as KPIs to the data model. There was always the ability to define KPIs in the server for global use, but we’ve added the ability to add user based KPIs in the reports as well.
