Did a three month reporting role there many moons ago.
They insisted on doing this using a replicated OLTP schema.
The Spanish consultancy guys decided to load the tables with spreadsheets
Needless to say it took many weeks for any of the data to join together.
We progressed report build with mock data whilst those clowns got their act together.
The Client Co contact was a real nightmare.
In the first week we were below his target and he started flapping.
In the 2nd week we had cleared the back log and then some.
In the 3rd most of our lunches were long as we had completed a months work
