Operational Reporting

SIS Report Access

The Operational Reporting (OR) team develops student information system (SIS) reports that are stored in and retrieved from the SIS Reports Power BI application (app). Individuals with access to the SIS reports in the SIS Reports Power BI app may review and download reports for which they have been provisioned.

The steps for obtaining new access or changing existing access are outlined below.
