MoversSuite Administration > Reports > EnterpriseBI User
EnterpriseBI User Setupallows you to create new BI Tool users, edit existing users, or delete users. The number of users allowed is dependent upon the number of users defined within your Licensing Setup. When a record is created within EnterpriseBI User setup, a record for that user is also added to EnterpriseBI User Information Setup.
No Security Profile Setup record updates are needed to enable a user to access and use the BI Tool. Alternatively, if you have personnel who will not have access to the BI Tool and you do not wish to count towards the number of BI Tool licenses in use, then you can define the Personnel Setup record without specifying any user information (within the User tab).
NOTE: If all EnterpriseBI licenses are in use and you are attempting to create a new user, a warning will appear stating that you are exceeding the number of licenses allowed under your contract. See BI Tool Licensing Setup to see that warning, more details, and recommendations.
To create a new user, from MoversSuite Administration > Reports > EnterpriseBI User, choose Click here to add a new EnterpriseBI User.

Use the Personnel dropdown to choose an employee. The dropdown includes the list of users defined within Personnel Setup.
The Use MoversSuite Credentials box is checked by default. This allows the user to use their existing MoversSuite User ID and password as their login credentials for the BI Tool.
If the employee will have different credentials for their login into the BI Tool, uncheck Use MoversSuite Credentials. Enter a new User ID and Password, which will be their login to the BI Tool only. Their existing MoversSuite User ID and Password will remain active for MoversSuite.
NOTE: For EWS Hosted and Subscription customer, all users must have access to the MoversSuite Azure environment. If the user is not a MoversSuite Software or Dynamics GP user, contact our Sales Team for a RDC license for these users.
