Business Analytics in Drupal with Views (drupal reports)
ABSTRACT:
We all LOVE Views, but one thing that is not easy to do with Views is to present results in the form of charts and graphs. Have you ever wanted to show a pie-chart of most common terms in your system? How about designing a multi-part report like the 'big boys' do with just couple of clicks?
This presentation will talk about designing professional reports in Drupal using Views. The modules showcased in the presentation are authored by the presenters.
Agenda:
- Why Views Rocks
- What's Missing From Views? Graphs and Charts
- Your first Chart with Views
- Multi-part reports
- Drupal - a platform for professional business reporting.
