Tell us about the business problem you were trying to solve.
Automating the reporting needs for my colleagues in Bank Pekao S.A.
Pekao S.A. is the 2nd bank, in terms of capitalization, in Poland.
Many times I deal with non-technical financial/accounting professionals who are seeking help in terms of creating cyclical reports for them. It is my obligation to, based on specific needs, develop any kind of report for both internal (colleagues from the Pekao S.A. group) and external customers (i.e., the National Bank of Poland, PZU S.A. - Pekao S.A. is a member of the PZU.S.A group, etc.).
What SAS products did you use and how did you use them?
SAS Enterprise Guide, SAS Studio
What were the results or outcomes?
Cyclical financial reports delivered for financial/accounting professionals.
Why is this approach innovative?
Always automation of any kind is innovative since it helps financial analysts/accountants to make better decisions and SAS tools for data transformation and visualisation are extremely helpful.
I also teach students at Uniwersytet WSB Merito we Wrocławiu how to properly use those tools.
