The goal of this book is to show you how to leverage Excel functionality to build and manage better reporting mechanisms. Each chapter in this book provides a comprehensive review of the technical and analytical concepts that help you create better reporting components — components that can be used for both dashboards and reports.
It's important to note that this book isn't a guide to visualizations or dashboarding best practices. Those are subjects worthy of their own book. This book focuses on understanding the technical aspects of using Excel's various tools and functionality and applying them to reporting.
The chapters in this book are designed to be standalone chapters that you can selectively refer to as needed. As you move through this book, you can create increasingly sophisticated dashboard and report components. After reading this book, you can

perspectives.
