Results, Pivot, Chart, Table, OLAP, and CubeQuery sections can be embedded in any Interactive Reporting document and viewed in EPM Workspace. Data is updated in EPM Workspace as it is updated in the original sections.
The limitations to Interactive Reporting document files embedded in a dashboard through an embedded browser or hyperlink control include:
Online help is available through a toolbar or a dialog box.
Number formatting options are not available.
The Reference sub dialog box of the Computed Item dialog box is not available.
Properties that define what users can do with embedded sections:
View-only—Can view static reports. (The reports are displayed as thumbnails in the dashboard section—as currently defined in the native-report section. Users cannot interact with the reports.)
Hyperlink—Can navigate to original sections by clicking thumbnails in the dashboard section.
Active—Embedded section objects in active mode enables users to interact with reports. Selecting a live report activates it in-place for drill down, pivoting, and other analysis functions.
Note: | When context menu changes made through the Object Model have been associated with embedded section objects of the same dashboard, the entire dashboard should be refreshed for changes to take effect. To refresh an entire dashboard, switch to another section, and then switch back to the same section. This was designed so that menu changes could be executed from the Startup script or from the user interface and saved with the document. It is not expected to be a frequent operation. |
