Synchronizing Smart Lists in Reporting Applications

You can synchronize Smart Lists to map them to dimensions in reporting applications.

To synchronize Smart Lists in reporting applications:

1. Refresh the application database.
2. Refresh the reporting application mapping.
3. Click the Navigator icon .
4. Under Create and Manage, click Smart List.
5. Click Synchronize, then click OK.

   During synchronization, values from reporting applications in all existing mappings are appended after the last Smart List item in the appropriate Smart list. If a Smart List is mapped to two dimensions, all members from the first mapping are inserted first, and then members from the second mapping are inserted. If a member already exists in a Smart List, it is not added again.

6. If Smart List items are mapped to more than one dimension, create a new Smart List with a new name, and then manually transfer related data.

Note:

Smart List names cannot have spaces in them. If you are synchronizing Smart Lists in a reporting application, ensure that any new members do not have spaces in the name.
