Improve data refresh times on custom reports

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Not having immediate access to data changes in custom reports is frustrating and causes delay in being able to get work done. Creating an On-Demand refresh for custom reports would help to alleviate the pain of having to wait hours to days for the custom reports to update. It would also eliminate time consuming workarounds for seeing updated data, such as downloading a different standard report or creating a new report from the monthly dataset that now has on-demand refresh to see updated data.

    Hello, 

    I believe that opportunity still exists to improve refresh times. For example, it can take a while for the refresh to occur. You can also only refresh it once per hour and I believe there may be a max amount of times per day(?). In certain cases, there may be a rushed need to have refreshed information and the platform doesn't always support those needs.

    Refreshes to the data should be as close to instantaneous as possible.

    Custom reports can already be refreshed by refreshed the monthly dataset report.
