What’s new

Welcome to Version 2019.3 Axiom Strategy Management!

Enhancements and changes in this release include:

  • Data table updates
    • The three MeasureData tables now store the date measure data was updated and the source or username of the user who made the update. This information is used when data actuals are imported into the system.
    • MeasureDataStaging table – A new data table stores imported actuals for measures that receive data updates from calculated or integrated processes (other Axiom Software solutions). Additionally, the date of the update and the source are also recorded in this table. Data updates are stored in this table until extracted daily (or ad hoc) and distributed to the corresponding measures by the Update Measure Data Actuals utility.
    • MeasureDataExceptions table – A new data table stores data exceptions that come into the system during measure data imports. Any unmatched data is moved from the MeasureDataStaging table to the MeasureDataExceptions table, where administrators can view it using the Resolve Exceptions utility.
  • New Update Measure Data Actuals utility – This new utility updates hierarchy measure data from actuals imported to the system. This utility runs nightly but administrators can run it on demand at any time.
  • New Resolve Exceptions utility – This new data utility helps Axiom Strategy Management administrators identify data exceptions that result when measure data imported to the system does not match up with data in the system.
  • Other UI enhancements:
    • Save button no longer displays in plan files for Initiatives in read-only stages: Committee Approval (Stage 4), Active Review (Stage 5) and Pending Reset (Stage 7).
    • Renamed “Update Monthly Measure Data” to “Update Period Measure Data” to account for measures with frequencies other than monthly.
    • Improved visibility of measures listed on the Perspective Measure and Objective Measure tabs on the Admin Measures page.
    • On the Resources tab and Opportunities tab in Initiative plan files, the comments fields now display field character limits to the right of each field. If you go over the limit, you receive a warning message when you save the file.
