For Smart View End Users

To install the Oracle BI EE extension:

  1. Install Oracle Smart View for Office as instructed by your Smart View administrator.

    Note:

    In some cases, your administrator may install Smart View automatically for you.

  2. After Smart View is installed, and before you start Microsoft Excel, Word, or PowerPoint, ensure that you are logged in to your computer with your own user name.

    Note:

    You must be logged in with your own user name, not an administrator's or anyone else's user name, in order to be able to install and use the Oracle BI EE extension correctly.

  3. Start Microsoft Excel, Word, or PowerPoint.

    Note:

    To install the Oracle BI EE extension, you can start Excel, Word, or PowerPoint; the Oracle BI EE extension installation is not launched from Outlook.

    See Installing Extensions for details.
  4. To verify that the extension is installed, from Excel, Word, or PowerPoint, select the Smart View ribbon, then Options, and then Extensions.
