Designating Shared Members in Smart View

The Smart View grid allows you to rapidly designate members for sharing within a dimension.

Note:

In Smart View, the Shared data storage option isn't available for members of the Currency dimension or any attribute dimensions.

To designate a shared member in Oracle Smart View for Office:

  1. Verify that the base member exists.
  2. Highlight the base member in the Parent Member column in the grid.
  3. Change the parent name value for the base member.
  4. Highlight the base member in the Data Storage column.
  5. In the drop-down menu, select Shared.
  6. Click Submit Data (Windows) or Submit (Mac and Browser) to save the grid.

The submit operation will refresh the base member with its original Parent Member and Data Storage properties. The shared member will be added under the specified parent on the server. You must zoom in on the parent to see the newly added shared member.

Note:

The new shared member will not be automatically added to the Smart View grid. The list of members displayed in the grid remains unchanged.
