New BI reporting in €lli-Reports: more insight with modern dashboards

€lli-Reports

Data plays an increasingly important role in the successful running of an organization. Good reporting helps business owners and managers make faster decisions and better understand their operations.

Within €lli there were always extensive possibilities for reports. Yet at De Haan IT, we saw room to further improve this functionality. So we revamped the reporting environment and expanded it with a modern BI reporting solution.

The result is a powerful way to analyze and visualize data.

From traditional reporting to modern BI dashboards

In the past, users could retrieve reports within €lli by running a query over a specific time period. That worked quickly and efficiently, but the presentation of the data was primarily numerical.

The reports were functional, but less visually appealing and less inviting to deeper analysis.

Since €lli was developed precisely to help organizations run their businesses better, we wanted to further improve this step. So we revamped the reporting tool and linked it to a modern Business Intelligence (BI) environment.

BI reports linked to the €lli database

In early 2025, De Haan IT first transferred its own internal reporting to a BI reporting environment. The results of this were so positive that we decided to make this technology available to our clients as well.

Linking the BI tool directly to the €lli database creates a powerful reporting environment with interactive dashboards and clear visualizations.

This makes it possible not only to view data, but also to better analyze it.

For example, organizations gain insight into:

  • revenue developments

  • visitor flows

  • sales by location or department

  • trends over different periods

Visual dashboards make reports clearer and easier to interpret.

More data means richer insights

A key benefit of BI reports is that the quality of insights grows the more organizations use €ll.

The longer an organization is a customer of De Haan IT and the more services are used within €lli, such as online sales, onsite transactions and other modules, the more data is available for analysis.

This leads to ever richer reports and deeper insights into business operations.

The data themselves, of course, remain the same. The difference is in how this data is presented and analyzed.

The new reporting environment invites you to look deeper, discover patterns and make better decisions.

The next step: data analysis with AI

Meanwhile, within De Haan IT, we are already working on the next development: data analysis using AI.

By applying AI technology to the available data, patterns can be recognized faster and organizations can be even better supported in interpreting their business information.

The initial results of this development are promising.

We expect to be able to show our customers more about this by the end of 2026.

Data as a foundation for better business decisions

New BI reporting in €lli gives organizations a powerful tool to better leverage their data.

Modern dashboards, clear visualizations and extensive analysis capabilities create an environment where data is not only available, but actually helps make better business decisions.

The more processes within €lli are used, the more valuable the insights become.
