Source System

Introduction

CXO-Cockpit has native connectors to leading corporate financial systems. The out of the box integration with these products allows you to quickly build reports without writing code or queries.

Two types of source systems can be distinguished:

  • Adapter: Source systems that require an CXO-Cockpit application adapter
  • Direct (/wiki/spaces/CXO/pages/5505238): Source systems that can be queried directly with MDX

A CXO-Cockpit application must always connect to at least one source system, but it can connect to more than one source system.
