If you are seeing a "password authentication failed" or similar error when connecting through Excel, it is recommended to connect through the Legacy Wizard.
Note: MS Excel for Mac does not support the custom reports. The alternatives would be to use an open sourced database tool designed for MacOS, such as DBeaver, and Navicat for PostgreSQL. You can setup your ODBC connection in one of these tools, and then write very simple SQL scripts like " select * from " to retrieve data from the views that TS team have developed. Support for these alternative tools falls outside scope.
