BI View Editor

The module BI View Editor is user-friendly tool (Query Builder) integrated in Odoo. It creates views for Odoo 8, allowing the user to specify graphically the sources and the attributes of the data-set to analyze, automating all the operations for creating all the necessary low level Odoo objects.

It is intended for:

• Graphically define your analysis data-set
• Add new computed information to your data set
• Specify the visualization attributes
• Create the basis for a new data exploration method in Odoo

Benefits would be:

• More freedom to consultants or end users to customize views
• No more external tools for data analysis
• Easy update of your BI reports
• No more external tools for data analysis

Usage

To graphically design your analysis data-set:

• From the Reporting menu, select "Custom BI Views"
• Browse trough the business objects in the Query tab
• Pick the interesting fields (Drag & Drop)
• Save and click "Generate BI View"
