Previewing POV in Reports

Previewing the POV gives you the ability to control and edit it before importing and opening a report.

When you import a report from either Narrative Reporting or Reports in Oracle Smart View for Office 23.100+, you can preview and set the POV.

Before you begin, you need to enable the previewing of POV for reports in user preferences in the web application as follows:

• In Narrative Reporting, navigate to Tools, click User Preferences, and select the Preview POV check box in the Reporting tab.
• In Reports from an Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud business process, navigate to Tools, click User Preferences, and select the Preview POV check box in the Reports tab.

After saving the user preferences, restart Microsoft Excel if it is already open, and connect to the business process in Smart View.

To preview and select POV for a report:

1. In the Select POV dialog, view the default POV set for the report and click OK if you want to proceed importing the report without changing the POV.

   Note:

   If you click Cancel in the Select POV dialog box, the import process is cancelled and the report does not get imported in Smart View.
2. To edit the POV of the report, select the required value in each dimension drop-down list and click OK.
   You can also edit the POV after importing the report by following the procedure in Changing the POV in Reports.
