About Sample Applications

Sample applications are provided with the Essbase Server software. The individual who installs Essbase Server is responsible for making the sample applications available to Essbase users. Sample applications are not installed with Administration Services.

If sample applications have been installed on an Essbase Server, they appear in Enterprise View in Administration Services Console. If you want to separate the sample applications from your applications in Enterprise View, move them to a custom view. If you delete sample applications from Enterprise View, they are also deleted from an Essbase Server, making them unavailable to other users.

The sample applications and databases are as follows:
