There are six pillars that are considered the data owners for much of the enterprise data used in reporting at the University of Minnesota:
- Finance
- Office of Human Resources
- Physical Asset Management
- Research
- Student
- Office of Institutional Research
These central units provide a large amount (but not all) of the enterprise data available. The MyU Reporting Center categorizes reports for end-users by these six pillars. For example the Office of Human Resources produces an Employee Job History report that shows key data elements of a given individuals job history at the University. In addition Finance produces the Transaction Detail report that displays account financial activity for a given chartstring.
