Yeah, I just checked out a Microsoft presentation about Power View the other day, and it looks pretty sweet. The only downside that I can see is that Power View requires SQL Server Reporting Services to be configured in SharePoint Integrated mode.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155792.aspx What about Power Pivot? I'm not a huge BI guy, but Power Pivot looks really sweet. Has anyone done some extensive work with this and ConfigMgr data? I'd be interested in seeing some practical examples.

He was showing how he presents System Center tabular data (including ConfigMgr) via SharePoint 2013 Power View dashboards. It was really slick! It's a pretty intuitive process to create the dashboards and very intuitive for the end-user to filter and use "slicers" to query the data they are looking for, without the burden of us having to create new SSRS reports. You can also use Power View in Excel 2013. It does have its limits. It's not designed to show tabular data. I should have the slide deck of the presentation available soon if anyone is interested. -Stephen _____ From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [mssms] Feedback Request: Developing ConfigMgr 2012 Reports Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 08:48:06 -0500 Hey folks, I was just hoping to gather some general feedback about how people are developing and publishing ConfigMgr 2012 reports. Now that we no longer have classic ASP reports, how are you writing reports? Are you using SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), Report Builder, or Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS)? What tools have you found easy (or hard) to use, and what is your workflow for creating reports, and publishing them out to business end-users? Do you create Active Directory security groups to restrict business users to specific SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) folders? How do you organize your folders? Any additional feedback you can provide would be helpful, including screenshots. Cheers, Trevor Sullivan
