Power BI is used to gain access to valuable e-commerce data and combine it with additional data from other business systems. It also helps in building dashboards to visualize all that information and access them in the Znode admin console.
Znode has built a connector to Power BI that gives access to the Znode database. Customers can use the tools provided by Power BI to build dashboards and once published, will automatically show in Znode.
Advanced Options: Shopper-specific reports can be extended to the Webstore -> My Accounts section.
Administrators can also give access to these reports via the web store as well.
