Business Scorecard Manager 2005 server requirements

Attempting to install Microsoft Business Scorecard Manager 2005 on a server
that has all components of SQL Server 2005 installed including Reporting
Services w/IIS. The install lists several pre-requisites that are not on
server:
Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) 4.0
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for OLAP Services (MSOLAP) 2000 SP4 (8.00.2039)
Microsoft ADOMD.NET 8.0
These pre-requisites look like something that would be present on a SQL
Server 2000 install, which is not on this server. If these 2000 components
are installed, will it overwrite something critical in SQL Server 2005?Hi,
there is equivalent 2005 tools / drivers
msxml 6
OLAP drivers v9
ADOMD.Net

Business Scorecard Manager 2005

Has anyone used this as a front-end to ssas 2005 cubes? I haven't downloaded the demo and fiddled with it yet and don't see any discussion of it here, is it any good?

The organization I work for won't roll out excel 12 till 2008 at the earliest, excel 2003 has issues with ssas 2005, and proclarity hasn't been integrated into the MS suite yet. What can i use as a front-end for my cubes? The political environment here favors Business Objects for everything but I feel that is like using Novellfor Networking, a good solution 20 years ago...

Thanks in advance...

You can use BSM2005 as a front-end tool, however it is mainly used for KPI:s(Key performance indicators).

I do not see it as a good cube browser tool and it uses Office Webcomponents 2003 internally. It is a Balanced Scorecard browser.

ProClarity Analytics will still be sold as a complete solution during the next year. I think it is better and cheaper than Business objects. Microsoft have cut the license fees with 30 percent this summer.

Have a look at this link for more information: http://charliem.wordpress.com/2006/10/03/performancepoint-biz-is-coming/

Business Scorecard Manager

hello -
We are looking for a 3rd party tool for dashboarding, gauges and Key
Performance Indicators (KPIs).
We are already using SSRS 2005 for reporting purposes.
Is MS's Business Scorecard Manager
(http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/FX012225041033.aspx) anyway related
to SSRS 2005?
Is Business Scorecard Manager another BI module in SQL Server 2005?
any inputs are appreciated.
thanks
- jasthiWe just had a demo for Business Scorecard Manager. It is a separate
application that runs on Sharepoint (Services or Portal). It can pull data
from any datasource directly or through cubes from multiple datasources. It
can incorporate reports from Reporting Services (2000 or 2005).
I'm totally new at Scorecard Manager, but this is my understanding so far.
So anyone can correct me or add more...

Business Scorecard Integration with SQL server 2000/2005

I was trying to install Business Scorecard Manager Server , for that i have installed SQL server 2000, Analysis services and Service Pack 4 and also have taken mixed mode of authentication . Then i have installed sharepoint portal server 2003 and extended a site .
Now when i install BSM server at the end of installation it gives me error that user administrator does not exist in Scorecard server database( Database which is created during installation process itself ). This error comes when installation package is trying to create a query string to already existing SQL server database.
Same thing happens even if i take SQL server 2005.
Any help in this regard will be really appreciated.

Thanks

If this problem occurs during the installation of Business Scorecard Manager Server, then you should post on a forum dedicated to that product.

For example, I see there are some posts about installation issues with BSMS on the following forum: ISV Open Discussions. Try posting your question on that fourm if it was not already answered there.

Thanks
