The Bursting List displays the default setting for the current scheduled batch. You can periodically view the default settings as you navigate through the batch wizard and export it as a CSV file to specify output and permissions exceptions for a scheduled batch, thus overriding the default settings defined for the scheduled batch. For example, you can specify a different subfolder for some reports, based on selected dimensions, or make some reports read-only.
To edit the Bursting Destination File for a current batch, the Planning Service Administrator or Planning Power User exports the file to a text editor or Excel, enters the members, if not already displayed, and edits any values in the table. Upon completion, the file must be imported into the repository (File , then Import , then File) where it can be applied to a scheduled batch. See the Bursting Destination File for a sample list (located in the “sample” folder).
To export the bursting list as a CVS file:
By default, the file is exported to MS Excel, if available, else you are prompted to select a text editor.
Specify the output options and permissions for individual members.
Note: | Members that are added to the file, but are not also selected in the batch wizard, are ignored during output. To make the reports “read only” to users based on a group or role, enter a group name or role name. |
