Ad Hoc Reporting

Chapter Chapter 25 in CFO Techniques, 2011, pp 223-228 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract As a head of finance and someone who is perceived to be the hard hat-wearing foreman of the data mine with access to the information ore, a CFO or a controller should always be ready for a spur-of-the-moment request to provide a peculiar set of data or an unusual analysis. Frequently, such inquiries come from owners/CEOs, whose business development plans or desire to look at the company’s activities in a new light bring about special ideas. Other departments in your company may have urges for obscure combinations of numbers as well. Plus, there are various external parties for whom your must spin facts with the most radiant confidence. And on many occasions, creative and responsible financial executives themselves cannot stop their minds from digging deeper in the pursuit of the business’s well-being.
