An Introduction to SAS® Information Map Studio
Kevin Davidson · FSD Data Services, Inc. & University of Houston
ABSTRACT
SAS Information Map Studio is used to create information maps -
metadata that surfaces your data into terms that business users can
understand. Information architects can visually specify relationships
between tables so that business users can query the data and get
reports without having to know much (or any)
programming. SAS Web Report Studio will be used to demonstrate the utility of information maps.
A
couple days before the conference deadline for submitting this paper I
found out about some major upgrades to Information Map Studio, making
some of my content out-of-date. Thus I’m going make this more of an
executive summary style paper rather than a technical one with a plan
of demonstrating the latest release of the software, version 3.1,
during the presentation.

Making your own Balanced Scorecard using the SAS Information Delivery Portal |
SAS Portal and Stored Processes make a powerful combination, the following paper describes how OZ zorgverzekeringe created a balanced scorecard reporting applicaton using the combination.
Paul Smeekens, Erwin van Dongen,, SUGI 31 - 2006, Paper 005-31
In 2004, OZ zorgverzekeringen migrated its existing Web applications
and SAS® Information Delivery Portal to the new architecture of SAS®
version 9 using a central SAS® Metadata Server. With this move, all
information flows were centralized in the SAS® portal. Still, the
amount of information made it difficult to get a quick look into the
performance of the organization as a whole. In 2005, OZ
zorgverzekeringen combined several pieces of information into a
balanced scorecard. The Balanced Scorecard has been made by using just
AppDev Studio® and SAS/Base®. The scorecard is published within the
existing SAS®-portal. Now, on the level of the entire organization as
well as per department, figures are being published on the financial,
internal business processes, customer, and learning and growth
perspectives of the company. The balanced scorecard is giving
management at OZ improved insight into how the organization is doing.
