Most ERPNext teams hit the same wall when leadership asks for a single, trustworthy dashboard: ERPNext's built-in Report Builder, Query Reports, and Dashboard Charts are excellent for operational lists, but they were never meant to be a full BI layer. Analysts end up exporting DocTypes to CSV, hand-stitching GL Entry, Sales Invoice, and Sales Order in a spreadsheet, and rebuilding the same model every month. The moment someone needs blended finance-and-sales metrics, historical trend, or per-branch access control in Power BI, native ERPNext runs out of road — and pointing Power BI straight at the MariaDB tab* tables is brittle, insecure, and breaks on the next schema change.
Native Power BI connectivity via whitelisted Frappe REST endpoints — no direct MariaDB `tab*` access, so it survives schema upgrades
Dual feed modes: paginated REST Import for scheduled datasets and a DirectQuery-style feed backed by `@frappe.whitelist()` server methods
Prebuilt finance semantic model — GL Entry, P&L and balance-sheet building blocks, AR/AP aging, cost-center and dimension breakdowns
Prebuilt sales semantic model — Sales Order, Sales Invoice, item, customer, and territory analysis with margin measures
Ready-made DAX measures, star-schema relationships, and a conformed date dimension shipped inside the `.pbix`
Row-level security mapping ERPNext roles, Company, and Territory to Power BI RLS roles for one safe multi-branch report
The ERPNext Power BI Connector closes that gap. It is a proper Frappe app (its own module, DocTypes, and hooks.py) that exposes governed, analytics-ready data to Power BI through whitelisted REST endpoints rather than raw database access. We ship two feed modes: a paginated REST pull for Import/scheduled-refresh datasets, and a DirectQuery-style feed backed by whitelisted server methods (@frappe.whitelist()) for near-live querying. On top of the feeds we deliver prebuilt semantic models for finance (General Ledger, P&L, balance-sheet building blocks, AR/AP aging) and sales (orders, invoices, item and customer analysis), with the DAX measures, star-schema relationships, and date dimension already wired in your .pbix.
Technically, the app maps ERPNext DocTypes to clean analytics tables, adds server scripts and doc_events hooks so incremental/change tracking stays accurate, and enforces Frappe's permission model on every request — the connector honors User Permissions and role profiles, so a Company- or Territory-scoped user only ever pulls the rows they are allowed to see. That same boundary drives Power BI row-level security (RLS): we map ERPNext roles and dimensions to RLS roles so one published report serves head office and regional managers safely. Scheduled refresh is handled with Frappe scheduler_events and token/API-key authentication, so datasets refresh on cron without a human exporting anything. Everything targets Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16.
Because this is build-to-order, we do not hand you a generic marketplace download and wish you luck. After a short scoping call we confirm exactly which DocTypes, custom fields, companies, and dimensions matter to you, then build and test your version against a copy of your data. Typical delivery is 2–4 weeks from confirmed scope. You receive installable source, install and configuration on your bench, UAT on staging with a rollback plan, documentation, a training session, and a post-go-live support window — plus the git repository so the app is fully yours.
Needs consolidated P&L, balance-sheet, and AR/AP aging in Power BI without waiting for monthly spreadsheet rebuilds, and wants the numbers to tie back to ERPNext GL exactly.
Wants a governed, documented data source instead of scraping DocTypes to CSV — with a ready star schema, DAX measures, and a date dimension so they can extend rather than rebuild.
Runs multi-territory or multi-company sales and needs one Power BI report where each regional manager sees only their own pipeline via row-level security.
Responsible for the bench and data security; wants BI access that respects Frappe permissions and role profiles rather than opening raw database credentials.

| Kriterium | ECOSIRE | Benutzerdefinierter Build | Konkurrent | Odoo Native |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Data access method | Governed whitelisted REST + DirectQuery feeds | Whatever you script; often raw SQL | Fixed REST export, limited config | |
| Semantic model | Prebuilt finance & sales star schema + DAX | Built from scratch by your analyst | Generic tables, no measures | |
| Permission enforcement | Honors Frappe User Permissions & role profiles | Only if you build it in | Often ignored — full table access | |
| Row-level security | ERPNext roles mapped to Power BI RLS | Manual, error-prone | Rarely supported | |
| Scheduled refresh | Frappe scheduler + token auth, no manual export | Custom cron you maintain | Basic, fixed cadence | |
| Custom fields / DocTypes | Mapped to your exact schema during build | Yours to wire up | Standard fields only | |
| Upgrade safety (v15/v16) | Standard Frappe app, no `tab*` coupling | Breaks on schema change | Depends on vendor cadence | |
| Ownership & support | Git handover + post-go-live support window | You own and maintain fully | Vendor-locked, subscription |
This is a build-to-order engagement, not an instant download. After a scoping call to confirm the DocTypes, companies, and dimensions you need, typical delivery is 2–4 weeks from confirmed scope. We build and test your version against a copy of your data, run UAT on staging, then install on production.
Power BI connects through whitelisted Frappe REST endpoints using API key/secret or token auth — never through direct MariaDB access. Every request is enforced against Frappe's permission model, so User Permissions, role profiles, and Company scoping all apply. This keeps BI access governed and auditable rather than handing out database credentials.
Both. We ship a paginated REST Import feed for scheduled-refresh datasets (wired through Frappe `scheduler_events`) and a DirectQuery-style feed backed by whitelisted server methods for near-live querying. We recommend the right mode per report during scoping based on data volume and freshness needs.
Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16. The connector is a standard Frappe app installed with `bench install-app`, so it upgrades cleanly alongside your site. If you're on an older version we can discuss a supported upgrade path during scoping.
Yes. Custom fields added via Customize Form and your own custom DocTypes are mapped into the semantic models as part of the build — that's a core reason this is build-to-order rather than a fixed marketplace app. We confirm exactly which fields matter during scoping.
Every engagement includes a post-go-live support window for fixes and questions. Because we hand over the git repository, your team can also maintain and extend the app. We offer optional ongoing support and version-upgrade retainers if you'd prefer we keep it current on new ERPNext releases.
We map ERPNext roles and dimensions like Company and Territory to Power BI RLS roles, so a single published report shows head office the full picture while each regional manager sees only their own rows. The same permission boundary is enforced server-side in ERPNext, so the data never leaves the site un-scoped.
