BI View Editor is a tool integrated in Odoo that allows users define and
execute their own reports without the need to code.

Purpose:

* The BI View Editor is used to create reports not already contained in the
standard Odoo, combining data from existing sources.

* It has been designed to be used by users with little or no knowledge of
the technical architecture of Odoo. Users visually link business objects
and select the fields to visualize.

* The BI View Editor offers users different types of representations,
including tree, graph, pivot views.

Usage
=====

To graphically design your analysis data-set:

- From the Dashboards menu, select "Custom BI Views"
- Browse trough the business objects in the Query tab
- Pick the interesting fields (Drag & Drop)
- For each selected field, right-click on the Options column and select whether it's a row, column or measure; if you want to remove the field from the list view, unflag the checkbox ´List´ in the Options column
- Save and click "Generate BI View"
- Click "Open BI View" to view the result
- If module Dashboard (board) is installed, the standard "Add to My Dashboard" functionality would be available
- Click "Create a menu" to create a new menu item directly linked to your new BI view (this feature is available in developer mode); when the BI view is reset back to draft this menu will be removed, and you will need to re-create the menu entry.

Known issues / Roadmap
======================

* Non-stored fields and many2many fields are not supported
* Provide graph view for table relations
* Extend the capabilities of the tree views (e.g. add sums)
* Provide a tutorial (eg. a working example of usage)
* Implement a more advanced UI, with possibilities to use LEFT JOIN as default instead of INNER JOIN
* Find better ways to extend the *_auto_init()* without override
* Possibly avoid the monkey patches
* Data the user has no access to (e.g. in a multi company situation) can be viewed by making a view
* Store the JSON data structure in ORM
* Would be nice if models available to select when creating a view are limited to the ones that have intersecting groups (for non technical users)
