eets, pivot tables, 2 and 3D graphics and drill downs.
* Discovered major flaws in application, backend queries and tools that when cor
rected led to greater accuracy or presented data.
* Implemented substantial query library which greatly increase the speed and acc
uracy of the multitude of complex backend reports.
