Yardi Voyager Custom Reports: Is SQL Required for Reporting

 http://www.lupinepartners.com/custom_reports - David Wolfe of Lupine Partners addresses Yardi Voyager Custom Reports and if SQL is a requirement in custom reporting.

It is, to an intermediate level.  The better question is:  How hard is it to learn SQL?  The answer to that question is:  Not too hard.  The basic elements can be grasped in a day.  The most important thing to know is what the Yardi Voyager™ database schema is. All databases have tables, and within each table there are columns.  If you know SQL but you don’t know where the data is, then you are not going to be able to develop reports in Yardi.  Both the knowledge of SQL and the Yardi schema is attainable in a fairly short period of time.  It does help to go to a training class which will shorten your time frame with both efforts.
