Decision Support Systems (DSS) is an informating- producing system aimed at a particular problem that a manager must solve and a decisions that a manager must make. The manager can be located anywhere in the organization on any level and in any functional area.
The MIS ( Management Information System) is intended to provide problem solving information to a group of managers in a general way, whereas the DSS is intended to support a single manager in a specific way. We regard the MIS as an information-producing system that support a group of managers who represent an organizational unit such as a management level of a functional area.
