Information is access using the electronic reporting system.
Data is extracted from numerous source systems via automated interfaces and warehoused within the Financial Solutions IT infrastructure. Modules are built based on business requirements to collate source data into reporting views. DSS links multiple data sources in some views to produce indicator reporting.
The system allows for both aggregated and drill down functionality empowering users in a hierarchical manner, to view large slices of relevant/ significant data with extract facilities to excel, work and PDF etc. The system also incorporates performance reporting inclusive of scorecard and dashboards.
The DSS system has had three significant upgrades since implementation in 1996. DSS Holos - DSS Novaview (Panorama) - DSS Necto.
The Queensland Health DSS Necto is a user friendly information system designed to allow a QH staff member with the appropriate security clearance to access reporting from any computer with QH intranet access. DSS Necto provides both summary and detailed data with the capacity to design regular reports as per user needs. Data can be converted to tabular or graphical display within the application as well as exported within in a number of formats (exl, cvs, pdf etc).
