Introduction:
SAP Digital Boardroom is a dynamic and real-time presentation tool, enabling executives to find insights and address ad hoc questions.
When required to make highly informed business decisions, board members, executives and decision-makers are often faced with separate reporting solutions that present data in a static, isolated way.
SAP Digital Boardroom harmonizes the view of company operations across all lines of business in one easy-to-consume, highly visual touch screen setup for more effective, collaborative decision-making.
You can choose to create two types of Digital Boardroom presentations:
Agenda: Select an Agenda to orchestrate the executive meeting in a traditional way. Create agenda items, then add and combine pages from any story into your topics.
Dashboard: A modern, exploratory, corporate steering presentation. Create freeform topics to match your business organization, then add and combine pages from any story.
Use a dashboard to allow the presenter to decide where to go next, without a predefined path to follow.
Creating Digital Boardroom Dashboards:
From the Main Menu, select Create ->Digital Boardroom.
Enter a name in the Create Digital Boardroom Presentation dialog and choose OK.
You have two choices to choose from: Agenda and Dashboard. Choose Dashboard.
A blank dashboard is created with a default root topic. Enter a title for the root topic (in the below highlighted area). The root topic is the starting topic of your presentation. This topic can't be deleted.
Choose Designer and open the Build panel. Enter a title and description under presentation properties. Set the Mobile enabled option if you want this presentation to be available on the mobile app.
