Connecting BAO and BA Desktop

[AmyPeters1]

Is there any way to link the BAO data (like disposable income, age, etc.) to business analyst desktop?  Or is there an easier way than just linking the tables that you can export from BAO?

Actually, you can. You can set your BAO login credentials in Business Analyst Desktop and get access to all of the BAO data and reports through tools like the Append (Spatial Overlay) tool. You will have to request that your account be activated for access through Desktop. The instructions to do this are in the following link:
