Creating Selection Steps

You must have one of the following user type permissions:
  • BI Author Limited

  • BI Tenant Administrator

Home > Oracle Business Intelligence > Catalog
  1. Edit the analysis.
  2. Display the Analysis editor: Results tab.
  3. If the Selection Steps pane is not visible, then click the Show Selection Steps pane button on the toolbar to display it.
    The pane might also be collapsed at the bottom of the Results tab. Click the plus sign icon to expand it.
  4. For the column whose steps you want to define, click the Then, New Step link.
  5. From the menu, select the option for the step type to create and complete the resulting dialog.

Selection steps are automatically created when you use the right-click interactions (such as Add Related or Keep Only) to refine the selection of data for a particular hierarchical column or attribute column in a view.

After you add selection steps to the analysis, you can go to the Analysis editor: Results tab and add the Selection Step view to the analysis. If you add the Selection Steps view, at runtime the user can view the selection steps that are applied to the analysis. For more information about adding the selection steps view, see Results tab: Selection Steps editor.

Note: The BI Author Limited cannot create a selection steps view.
