Posts: 1 		Obviously Tabulus was designed to operate well within a certain data paradigm, namely business intelligence.
What information resources would you recommend for new users of Tabulus and who are new to working in this type of data?

Also, what is typically the source of the data table information? Where does it come from and in what formats?

What would be really helpful for people new to this area of information is a video or document that starts from basic assumptions about the information a user of Tabulus would be dealing with, what it means, and how to use Tabulus to extract useful information from it. Start with someone coming to you who says... "What is 'Business Intelligence' and how can I use Tabulus to acquire it?"

I am sure to most in the world of finance, accouting, business management, etc. This may seem like a question answered in Accounting 101, but some of us who will be using this tool come from different fields of information and are now put in positions of making decisions about their operations and/or business directions, and do not have the same background as others who will use this tool.

So how do I get started?

Thank you,
-Bryan

Posts: 8 		Hello Bryan,

Yes it is true the initial plan for TABULUS was for financial data. Since TABULUS was released we receive new examples of uses for TABULUS beyond financials on a daily basis. The flexibility of TABULUS and the structured approach on how data is handled makes the possibilities endless.

To get you started I recommend watching the training videos under the "Videos" menu on our site. There are also a few training items via Amazon.com. Just search for TABULUS. Jonathan Pickup (world rebound Vectorworks trainer) has been creating TABULUS training items. Jonathan has committed to continuing his line of TABULUS training so more items are to come.

As you mention there are many different uses for TABULUS so if you have a request that is not within the training materials we have provided please feel free to contact us by phone 443-595-0066 or e-mail support@tabulus.com

We also have an extensive list of template files under the “Examples” menu. If you have any suggestions or requests please let us know.

Mike
