You can view books in EPM Workspace.
You can view books in HTML or PDF. In PDF, you can view the entire book or individual reports in the book. The print server must be available to display both HTML and PDF links. If the print server is not available, books are available only as HTML links. When you select a report name, the report is generated for all member combinations specified in the book. You can add reports to books and modify members.
You can preview user POVs before running books. When you view books, user POVs and tables of contents are displayed. User POVs specify members for dimensions not defined on report grids. You can change user POV members and then run books to display new-member data.
You use tables of contents to locate reports that you want to view and to set options.
Note: | The time required to generate and display books varies, depending on book size. You can cancel books at any time. |
For reports with multiple page members, you can change page members and refresh the reports to show the updated data. Reports are viewed in Acrobat Reader.
