There is very limited access to a wide variety of data through BI compared to MS Query or Crystal Reports. BI should have the same access to ALL data fields as you have through MS Query and CR.

We are moving our BI information to TC1 Analytics. There you will be able to use Power BI as well as enhanced data sets. They are also working on additional data sets.
We concur that the Business Intelligence Module should include all data fields. Even the Payroll Comments / Notes field!
Agree, particularly with Rae Marie's comment: "I'd love to see original estimate for jobs in any of the job related cubes, specifically in the job financials. I can back into the Original Contract Amount, but cannot back into Original Estimate. We'd like to see how our estimates are faring compared to where the job actually lands."
We need to be able to run a report through BI that shows new jobs by create date with contract value, original estimates and margins so we can more easily track our new sales by division and by period.
100% agree, we need all data from each module available to BI!!

Would also like to see the availability to see pre time that hasn't been paid
We just start using BI and it has great potential BUT we need more fields in ALL cubes to generate data by PM and Division, for example. Having AR Aging Categories would be so helpful so we could quickly identify old receivables.
I this same theme, in the creating of the "data cubes", the Payroll Data Cube is inadequate for the info that Payroll Managers normally need.
In the Locally Hosted version the Payroll Reporting is slim, and we were thinking of moving to Web Hosted, but the Payroll BI reporting does not seem to be any better.
There needs to be information reported by "Pay Period" count number, instead of by "Date Range".
