Create simple and effective reports through PowerPivot (aka Gemini)
In one of my previous post, I explained how to configure the analytics reports for Commerce Server, and I’m sure that most of you guys was disappointed by the result (who says everyone?).
Even if the cubes provided by Commerce Server can be a good starting point, the import process is fully out of date and close to a kind of a black box where trying to tune something is an exploit. And I’m not speaking about the reports that have not evolved since 2001…
In short, you will have understood, it is time that the Commerce Server team focuses on this feature to give it a good blow paint!
So, what we can do?
