Step 2: Data Source Information

Tile Wizard supports the following data types:

Field or Control Description

Application classes

Use the application class data type to specify a custom application class that implements the PTGP_APPCLASS_TILE:Tiles:Tile base class and one of its required SetTileContentAs methods to show charts, HTML, key performance indicators (KPIs), or images as tile content.

Free text

Use the free text data type to present free-form HTML or simple text in a tile.

Images

Use the image data type to create an image-only tile for an existing content reference.

Navigation collections

Use the navigation collections data type to select an existing navigation collection to be displayed as a “fluid navigation collection” in an activity guide or in the NavBar.

OBIEE (Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition)

Use the OBIEE data type to select an existing OBIEE report or dashboard from the OBIEE server as the data source for the tile.

PeopleSoft queries and SQL definitions

Use the PSQuery/SQL data type to select PeopleSoft queries, stored SQL statements, or a combination to specify the data displayed on the tile.

Note: If data masking for personally identifiable information or other sensitive data has been enabled on a record field that is part of the criteria for the PeopleSoft query, then these data values are masked when displayed via Tile Wizard tiles.

Pivot grids

Use the pivot grid data type to select existing pivot grid instances, which use interactive pivot tables and charts that display application data that you can filter and pivot across multiple dimensions.
