	~~Use cases for MINT include:~~
	* Creating digital dashboards to convey key information to specific audiences
	* Tracking indicators and progress
	* Creating interactive reports
	* Scheduling reports and sending notifications -- for example, send a specific report as a PDF attachment by email every Monday at 08:00 to the operations manager
	* Performing ad-hoc data analyses by dragging and dropping fields from predefined data sources
