Overview
Oracle Argus Analytics includes dashboards, reports, and metrics that let you view relevant, interactive information—current as at the last date the data mart was refreshed. It also includes dashboards and reports to access the run-time data.
Dashboards are access points for information. Each dashboard is designed for a specific job responsibility.
When you access a dashboard, the information displayed changes based on your security privileges. For example, a user with BIConsumer application role may not be able to see the same data as the user with BIAuthor role.
A dashboard contains one or more related dashboard pages. A dashboard page contains a series of related reports (also called requests). A report can contain a tabular report, pivot table, or graph. You can drill down to detailed report by clicking the linked data. You can also filter the data that you see in reports using a set of parameters (called filters). Figure 2-1 displays the report hierarchy.
In addition to the dashboards and reports that are packaged with Oracle Argus Analytics, you can also create and manage reports or dashboards if you have appropriate permissions. Use Oracle Analytics Publisher to manage reports.
Oracle Analytics Server includes additional applications that are not directly used by Oracle Argus Analytics. These include Oracle Analytics Agents and Oracle Analytics Publisher. These applications extend the usefulness of the information provided by Oracle Argus Analytics.
Use Oracle Analytics Agents to detect specific analytic results and notify appropriate user or group about the result. Use Oracle Analytics Publisher to create formatted and printable reports.
