Abstract

Today’s level of the information technology development allows gathering of large amount of data relevant for a company. The issue of way and method of data gathering has been solved, however, at the same time the need also arises for extraction of the most important ones, since the quantity of the input data itself is not enough. In the contemporary business activities, being pursued in the circumstances of high competition, changes, speed and risk, management of the company may be compared to driving a fast car. Therefore, the information tables - dashboards have been created for the purpose of data processing as an analogy to the car dashboard, which, by means of several indicators, provides for the driver an instant insight into various data related to driving and the engine running. Display of the data in the form of charts and diagrams undoubtedly helps in obtaining new knowledge however, an individual visual displaying is seldom sufficient thus they should be combined in different variants. The work presents concrete examples of the dashboards creation both locally and globally.
