Configuring Reports view

You configure the Reports view to select the business measures that will be displayed in the view and to select a report interval. You can also change other configuration settings.

You should have defined one or more Subject Areas and one or more KPIs as dimensions in the Business Measures editor. You must have access rights in WebSphere® Portal to perform this task in the configure mode.
To configure the Reports view, complete the following steps:
  1. In the Reports view toolbar, click Configure.
  2. From the Subject Area list, select a subject area.
  3. Optional. From the Dimension list, select a dimension.
    Note: You must select Assigned User as a dimension, if you plan to filter your report data by employees, using a wire from the Organizations view to the Reports view.
  4. From the Analysis Type list, select an analysis type.
    • If you select the Trend analysis type, define a value in the Weighing Factor field.
  5. Based on the selected analysis type, select one or more Reports View Measures or one or more Modeled Measures from the tree, and then click Next.
  6. Specify the report interval by performing one of the following actions:
    • To select the start and end dates, click the Calendar buttons next to the From and To fields.
    • To define the interval, click YTD or MTD.
  7. From the Frequency list, select the frequency of values representation.
  8. To hide the informational text, in the view mode, clear the Show informational text check box.
  9. To preview the generated report, click View Report.
  10. To save the configuration, click Finish, or click Back if you want to change any of the settings.
