Project Online and OData

Our organization is implementing a pilot environment of Project Online for one organization that is looking to move their in-house 2010 to the cloud, and right now I'm researching the Project Online for how we can use reporting capabilities.

It looks really only option that is "out-of-the-box" is OData.


Accordingly to the document - only Adminstrator, Portfolio Manager and Portfolio Viewer can access OData feed. Project Managers cannot access data.

This slightly limits use of reporting on PWA for single project - Project Manager will have to use reporting capabilities in Project Professional 2013. 

This is a huge. People need to be able to create and view report on their data from PWA.

  1. Also the fact that Excel Services won't refresh is an issue. The Online experience needs to be rich for BI.
