Connect approved BigQuery tables to reporting workflows with defined metrics and a path back to the source.
Review a reporting workflow and the source data behind it.
Define the reporting scope (tables, date ranges, and approved metrics), then review the evidence behind the numbers.
Trace results to the source tables and query logic. Check freshness and the date range before interpreting a change.
Use the BigQuery tables authorized for the connection. Confirm source permissions and Permute workspace access before publishing a report.
Build structured dashboards and data outputs around approved definitions. BigQuery remains your source system.
Illustrative reporting definition
Synthetic example: sum posted invoice amounts dated September 1 through 30, grouped by business unit. Exclude drafts and voided invoices. This measures billing, not cash collected.
Keep the source table, cutoff, currency, and query beside the result. Cross-source joins require an explicit data model; access to BigQuery does not grant access to every business system.
