QuickSight Integration

QuickSight is a cloud-based business intelligence (BI) and data visualization tool integrated into MyTime. It allows users to analyze data, create interactive dashboards, and generate reports directly within the platform. Businesses often use it to track key metrics, generate reports, and make data-driven decisions.

Things to know:

• This feature requires an additional subscription and the activation of a hidden setting, which can only be enabled by the MyTime team. For assistance, contact your account manager or our support team at support@mytime.com.
• There are three types of subscription for QuickSight:
  
  • Franchisor Read-Only Access:

    • MyTime builds custom reports in AWS QuickSight

    • Franchisors (parent account owners) only have access with no additional cost
  • Franchisor and Location Owner Read-Only Access

    • MyTime builds custom reports in AWS QuickSight

    • An additional monthly cost per location

    • Both franchisors (parent account owners) and location owners (child account owners) have access to these reports

  • Franchisor Author Access
    • Franchisors (parent account owners) build and manage their own reports in AWS QuickSight

    • Additional monthly cost billed to parent company 

• By default, QuickSight is accessible only to account owners. However, you can grant access to location managers as well. This access is controlled by a hidden setting that can only be enabled by the MyTime team. To request activation, please contact our Support Team at support@mytime.com.
• When a new child account is created, QuickSight must also be enabled for that account. There is an option to automatically enable QuickSight for all new child accounts; however, this functionality is controlled by a hidden setting that can only be activated by the MyTime team. To request activation, please contact our Support Team at support@mytime.com.
  
• Reports and dashboards are maintained through structured datasets, which are refreshed regularly every 3 hours.

Once the subscription is added and the hidden setting is enabled, you can access and view the reports uploaded to the Dashboard (For Franchisor Read-Only Access & Franchisor & Location Owner Read-Only Access):
