Data Bindings - Slicer

To get data into your dasharea, you need to select a Bizview dataview. Before you can select a dataview, you need to design one. To design a data view, select the System icon from the menu and then scroll to the bottom and select Data Views:

For more information, see Data View.

Once you create a Bizview dataview, you can select the desired dataview from the drop-down in Data Bindings in the right panel:

Note:

    • Only dataviews with defined dataview fields will be visible in this list.

    • If you have an existing dataview from an earlier version of Bizview, go to Data view Fields and save the dataview to make it visible in the Dashboard module.

    • All available dataview fields display in a list to the left of the right panel. You can scroll in the list if there are many dataview fields, and there is also a filter function where you can search by writing the name of the desired field. Drag and drop the desired dataview fields to a container to the right, as demonstrated below:

    Below is a list of Data Binding containers for Slicers:

    Container

    Description

    Filter

    The Filter container should contain a field from the dataview (not a measure marked with a Σ sign).

    Once you drag and drop the desired fields, the dasharea updates with the data you selected:

    You can trace the bound data to view the actual data returned to the dasharea by selecting the corresponding icon:

    For more information, see Trace.

    Edit the field options by clicking on the fields in the containers in the right panel, as demonstrated below:

    Additional options display if you click on the dataview field, depending on the type of the area (area type slicer in this example):

    Setting

    Description

    Aggregation Type

    Select desired aggregation type (Sum, Average, Count, Max, Min). By default, the aggregation type is None for non measure fields.

    Next to the Dataview drop-down there are two buttons:

    • Update the selected dataview.

    • Trace can be used as a tool for the Dashboard Designer and/or for troubleshooting purposes. For more information, see Trace.
