Power BI is a tool used to view and report different sets of campus data. The Common Chart of Accounts (CCOA) Explorer Tool is a set of data within Power BI that combines the new CCOA data with legacy Chart of Accounts information to allow for viewing and understanding of the overall hierarchy of the new CCOA. For more information on Power BI, please see campus data services' Power BI webpage.
For support with this tool, see below for instructional videos and scheduled office hours. You can also watch a recording of the virtual Explorer Tool training hosted by the Office of Financial Training in November 2024.
