This section describes the functional areas of the Aggregated Views page.
In this section:
The main pane of the Aggregated Views page lists the aggregated views and their corresponding information in a column format.
Column titles that are underlined indicate that you can sort (ascending or descending) the column contents.
Page controls are available at the bottom of the aggregated view list to let you customize how many aggregated views appear at a time in the list. These controls also include options for moving between pages of listed aggregated views.
The following table describes the different columns and their contents.
| Column Heading | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Name used to identify the aggregated view. Click on the aggregated view's name to open the aggregated view and view additional information about the aggregated view. |
| Descrption | A description of the aggregated view. |
| Create Date | Date the aggregated view was created. |
| Used | Number of times the aggregated view has been used in a report. |
| Owner | Name of the user who created the aggregated view. |
Filters let you specify what is displayed in the list of aggregated views on the main pane.
To use a filter, click the check box next to the filter to activate it, enter in the information, and then click Filter. You can click Reset at any time to restore the page default view.
The following table describes the different filters.
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Name used to identify the aggregated view. Returns partial matches. For example, entering "utilization" in the Name filter will match all aggregated views with the word "utilization" in the name. Name filters are not case sensitive. |
| Date Created | Date range during which the aggregated view was created. When this filter is selected, additional fields appear letting you specify the date range. |
| Owner | The owner of the aggregated view. An owner filter must match the full user name, and is case sensitive. |
