+BI View Editor
+==============
+
+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 Reporting 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
+- 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
