IHS Markit is pleased to announce the v18.2 release of our Enterprise Data Management Warehouse (EDM Warehouse) software which is now generally available. 
The highlights of this release are:

Dashboards

The following new features and enhancements are available in EDM Warehouse Dashboards from this release:
  • User-Defined Dashboards: You can now create customized dashboards to meet your daily business needs. You can access the data that you need and view it either in grid or chart format.
