According to some embodiments, a business intelligence language expansion and compilation platform may receive a business intelligence language expression, containing at least one macro sub-expression from a user. Information may then be accessed in a business and data models data store to perform expansion and compilation operations on the received business intelligence language expression. As a result of these operations, the system may provide a native query to a data source database. A business intelligence language result set manager may retrieve data from a data source database responsive to the native query and output a business intelligence language result set to the user in response to the business intelligence language expression. According to some embodiments, the business intelligence language is reentrant such that the received business intelligence language expression is evaluated in one context and uses a result of another business intelligence language expression evaluated in a possibly different context.
