Server Page
ProClarity Analytics Server, or PAS, is a full-featured analytics client. Eventually, the
functionality available in PAS will all be moved into PerformancePoint Server. Until this, this
report type will like to an existing view (or report) in PAS. This will be described in detail in
Chapter 6.

be stored in PerformancePoint Monitoring Server.
SQL Server Report This template doesn??™t create a report in SQL Server Reporting Services, but instead creates a
reference to an existing Reporting Services report. Reporting Services reports that access BI
data will be discussed in Chapter 10.
Strategy Map This template ties KPIs to the different objectives in a strategy map that was created in Visio
2007. Strategy maps will be discussed later in this chapter.
