Copying Pivot Grid Model

Pivot Grid administrators use the Copy Pivot Grid Model page (PTPG_ADMN_SAVEAS) to copy an existing model and give it a new model name and title. Optionally, they can select to copy user personalization using the Include Personalizations option.

Note:

You cannot copy the Pivot Grid model that was created using a component as the data source because only one Pivot Grid model can be associated with a component.

Navigation:

Reporting Tools, and then Pivot Grid, and then Pivot Grid Administration, and then Copy Model
