From Enterprise View, you can view and operate on Essbase Servers, Essbase Administration Server, and their related objects. Most tasks performed in the console are performed in relation to an Essbase object that you select in Enterprise View, such as a database. This topic describes how to perform an action on an object you select in Enterprise View.
To perform an action on an object in Enterprise View or a custom view, click directly on the words next to the tree node. Clicking the node next to an object expands or collapses the object but does not actually select it.
After you select an object, you have several options for operating on it:
Right-click, and select a command from the shortcut menu.
The shortcut menu items change dynamically to display only the commands that are relevant to the selected object.
Select a command from the Actions menu on the menu bar.
These menu items change dynamically to display only the commands that are relevant to the selected object.
Click a button on a toolbar that represents the command you want to perform. Hover the mouse pointer over a button to view a descriptive tooltip.
Depending on what menu item you select, a dialog box or window is displayed in the workspace pane.
