OBI (Oracle Business Intelligence) is the analytical reporting tool that enables Cal Poly Humboldt employees to access and work with the data in PeopleSoft via what’s known as a data warehouse. Data warehouses are systems designed to store data from a wide range of sources and make this information available in an easy-to-use format to support decisionmaking.

Information currently stored in the Humboldt data warehouse includes:

• Finance: Daily financial transactions in detail and summary formats. Information includes budgeted amounts, encumbered amounts, and actual income/expenditures.
• Human Resources: Employee position-related and payroll-related activity.
• Student : Information on admissions and recruiting, student records, financial aid, and student financial services.
• DARS: The automated system that helps students and advisors track progress towards degree completion.
