Visual Business Director (VBD) allows you to perform historical analysis and forecasting. VBD allows you to assess the success of your business strategy through Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and can provide the visualization based on different views of the business. The VBD Planner is driven by KPIs, so you have to define at least one KPI to be able to open it through a data source or a view.
