How Decision Support System Works

The Decision Support System components are all software. They are housed in a computer and can be facilitated by additional software (such as multimedia). Tools like Excel include some of the components and therefore can be used for DSS construction by end users.

The figure alse illustrates how the DSS works. The DSS users get their data from the data warehouse, databases, and other data sources. When a user has a problem, it is evaluated by the processes.
