Tip from the Pros - BI Manager vs Intelligence User
We frequently encounter questions regarding discrepancies in report data among users, such as why one person sees different data than another or why a user sees only partial data or even just their own. These variations often arise when the individual running the report has been designated as a BI Manager. So, what exactly is a BI Manager? Simply put, a BI Manager is a specific role assigned to users, allowing them access to data specific to the employees who report directly to them, rather than granting visibility to the entire company’s data. This role is intended to tailor access and ensure that individuals can efficiently oversee and manage their team's performance without exposing them to potentially sensitive information across broader organizational levels. Understanding these roles and permissions helps in configuring reports effectively and ensures that users are viewing the data that is most relevant to their position and responsibilities.
Before opening a case, make sure you or your user are selecting Intelligence if you want to see all global data. If you want to limit the data to just your employees, choose BI Manager Intelligence.
