 A data warehouse is a database used for reporting. A data warehouse is a definition of a database to house replicated tables from your accounting product. The databases can either be Microsoft Access databases or Microsoft SQL Server databases. During the [[Get Data]] process, the data warehouses will be created and populated with the chosen tables. Queries, views and stored procedures can be added to the database to transform data in preparation for reporting or external use.
