Report Consumers

Learn about being a report consumer.

As a consumer, you may not frequently develop solutions using supported tools, but you have cause to run reports and analyze data.

Where to start

Start by visiting to the Business Analytics Hub (BAH). This web portal allows report consumers quick access to UCSD's more widely used analytic solutions, along with links that take users directly to access request forms and technical support.

You can also reach out to your local report developer or data source subject matter expert. They often have the information you are looking for. They may even have a solutions to meet your needs already created.

Your local report developer or data source subject matter expert can:

• Direct you to the list of reports available on Blink or your team's custom site
• Direct you to the link for the report you are looking for
• Explain what the report means, what fields mean, what filters are being applied and how to use the report
• Provision access (DSA or local ITS Support)
