Sorry, didn't quite know where this should go.
I'm reading Kimball Group's "Microsoft Data Warehouse Toolkit"
Has anyone got any experience in defining business processes? I'm struggling a little to look at my employer's recruitment busines and work out exactly what the real processes are.
Or maybe one of you has read something somewhere about this specific skill?

------------------------
Me: What do you want to know from your data warehouse?
Client: Err...Emm...Everything
Me: OK, that's great. That's all I need to know. I'll see you when it's done.

he he!
Funny...

Turn the coats...
Ask the client what data he needs to define the business processes?
If he can't, how can You?

If he can, it's a starting point.
And theoretically, if you store that data at the lowest grain, your dw can answer all questions.
