processes and channels
 Real-time data, updated
automatically and as frequently as
needed
 Data translated into meaningful
business intelligence

Symphony EYC’s Insights offers a
consolidated dashboard view of data
culled from multiple sources. In one
aggregated snapshot, Insights yields
meaningful information that is ready
for analysis and action.
In the ever-changing world of retail operations, one thing is constant — time
is money. For retail managers of fast-moving goods, the speed and
accuracy of decision-making is dependent upon the ability to access
relevant information. The difference between information compiled through
traditional extraction and data-sorting and information that is ready-to-use
can translate into a significant and valuable edge in the marketplace.
With Insights from Symphony EYC, managers have immediate access to
relevant and meaningful business information - a consolidated and
conclusive dashboard view of critical retail functions including
replenishment, warehousing, channels, marketing, and purchasing.
Insights delivers a higher volume of information, translated into relevant
business intelligence, with greater frequency, speed, and diversity of
formats. Whether managing promotions, productivity or store planning,
Insights puts the most relevant insights and information at the fingertips of
the right people at the right time.
Efficiently and effectively review timely information and statistics
With Insights, information retrieval is extremely fast and up to the minute. Insights
is a ‘data resident’ tool which means that source data is immediately ready for
processing versus having to ‘pull’ or ‘call’ the data across networks as in standard
reporting systems. Insights can access data in near real-time fashion allowing the
latest statistics to influence decision-making.
Make informed decisions based on pre-built, essential and relevant
business information
The Symphony EYC Insights team develops the application to access all pertinent
data, from any and all data sources and then designs the initial set of reports to go
in the hands of business users, allowing them to pull any meaningful combination
of results together for the essential basis of decision-making or informational
statistics.
Aggregate relevant data into one actionable and customized
dashboard
With Insights users decide what reports will contain and what the reports need to
show. There is no need to have multiple reports built, then discarded, changed or
enhanced to conform to current needs. Insights is designed to empower the user
to select virtually any hierarchical level, aggregation, time frame or other
dimension to allow customized views of the pulse of their business.
Move beyond flat reporting to strategic insights
Insights, can gather data from several disparate data sources if needed (Excel,
MS Access, text files, Internet data sources, your planning database, etc.) and
combine these data sources together in a logical and central repository. From that
repository, Insights can instantly provide results for a multitude of variations of
reporting needs.

Symphony EYC Insights
The Next Generation of Meaningful Business Intelligence
The Advantages of Insights
Include:
 A more intuitive user interface
 Faster access to business
relevant data
 Consolidated information from
multiple platforms
 Flexibility to collaborate with a
wide-range of database solutions
Work with a platform that is intuitive and easy to use
With Insights users simply point and click on any combination of data available in
a report and Insights will associate the information. For example, when a user
clicks on a DC, Insights selects only the requested items that belong to that DC.
There is no need to validate
Symphony EYC has chosen their Replenishment solution to be the
first implemented with Insights.
Replenishment Insights is an entirely new tool for managing inventory. With
Replenishment Insights, managers can view simultaneous inventory locations and
levels at once, allowing them to get the right product to the right locations at the
right time. For retail managers in the midst of a large-scale promotion,
Replenishment Insights can help remedy routine out-of-stocks and costly idle
stock with its simultaneous view of stock stratification. Managers can react
quickly, turning idle stock into sales and boosting profitability.
The Stock Stratification view provides a 360° perspective and one-touch
dashboard that displays precise inventory distribution across the organization.
Specific operational levels of inventory — including buffer levels, on-hand
inventory, idle inventory and more — are identified and quantified in a single view.
The scale and quality of the information allows managers to act quickly and
decisively. Reports are run and saved automatically, allowing for fast access in a
range of formats. The return is simple: rapid results, seamless integration and
bottom-line benefits, all in one view.
