Wiise and Power BI work together to give businesses greater visibility into their financial and operational data. Wiise captures the transactions and processes that run the business, while Power BI turns that data into interactive dashboards and reports that help teams monitor performance, identify trends and make more informed decisions. Wiise supports Power BI dashboards and reports that can be accessed directly from the Wiise environment.
Wiise and Power BI: Turn ERP Data Into Insight
Your ERP holds an enormous amount of business data. Power BI helps you make sense of it.
Turn your Wiise data into interactive dashboards and reports that give your team clearer visibility across finance, sales, inventory, warehousing and operations.
Instead of relying on spreadsheets, disconnected reports and month-end analysis, decision-makers can explore performance visually, drill into the numbers and identify the areas that need attention.
See more than the numbers in your ERP
Your ERP tells you what happened.
But as your business grows, simply recording transactions isn't enough. Finance leaders, managers and operational teams need to understand what those numbers mean and where performance is heading.
Combining Wiise with Power BI gives you another layer of visibility over your ERP data, transforming operational and financial information into dashboards that are easier to explore and understand.
Power BI can be accessed from the Wiise landing page, and administrators or report creators can create and share reports for Wiise users.

Understand sales and profitability
Revenue alone doesn't tell you whether you're growing profitably.
Wiise Sales Dashboards in Power BI provide visibility into revenue, costs and margin, with reporting available around item and customer profitability.
Use Power BI to investigate questions such as:
- Which products are generating the strongest margins?
- How does revenue compare with cost of goods sold?
- Which customers contribute most to profitability?
- How is performance changing between periods?
- Where are landed costs affecting margins?
Bring warehouse performance into view
Connect ERP and warehouse data with visual reporting to better understand:
- Inventory Stock availability, low-stock situations and inventory movement.
- Orders Open orders, back orders and shipment delays.
- Workload Inbound and outbound activity, picks, putaways and assemblies.
- Performance Order completion and operational bottlenecks.
Start with the big picture. Then investigate why.
A dashboard may show that margin has fallen, inventory has increased or a warehouse KPI is moving in the wrong direction.
Power BI lets users interact with the reporting and drill into the information behind the headline number. Wiise's dashboards support interactive filtering and drill-down functionality across areas including financial and sales reporting
So instead of asking "Why did that number change?", and waiting for someone to build another spreadsheet, teams have a more visual starting point for investigating performance.
Wiise + Power BI + Microsoft 365
Wiise is built around Microsoft technology, and Power BI provides the analytics layer for turning ERP information into visual business intelligence.
Standard dashboards or reporting built around your business?
Wiise provides ready-to-use Power BI dashboards, while Power BI also supports custom reporting. Wiise's documentation states that administrators or report creators can build and share custom Power BI reports for users
Every organisation measures performance differently. You may want reporting around:
- margin by product, customer or location
- inventory movement
- sales performance
- project performance
- departmental profitability
- operational KPIs
- financial trends
- management reporting
The objective shouldn't be to create dozens of dashboards. It should be to surface the information people actually need to make decisions.
Make your ERP data more useful
Implementing an ERP gives your business a central source of operational and financial information.
The next step is making that information genuinely useful to the people running the business.
