You can use the advanced Summary and Detail filter options to filter your data by aggregated values or by individual records. This enables you to review data from a high level or a more granular view. You can use these filter options to view summary or detailed information to make decisions and review different scenarios with your data, depending on how much information you want to see. You can also add additional fields or filters to expand your analysis.

The Summary option, which is the default, allows you to select records based on the aggregated value of a field.

As you create charts in WebFOCUS Designer, you can preview them to see how your data displays in the chart, or to check the styling before publishing it or sharing it with others. At any point in the development of your chart, click Preview on the Quick Access Toolbar, as shown in the following image.

This executes your request and presents the results in the preview window.

Once you've reviewed your chart, you can exit the Preview using the Esc key.

The new generation Business Intelligence (BI) Portal is an analytical content management system that provides a flexible and interactive environment for both authors and consumers of data analytics. It allows users to access and share content, customize their portal experience, collaborate, and build sophisticated structures for data storytelling.

The key benefits of the BI portal are:

On the WebFOCUS Home Page, you can use tags to categorize your content. This is particularly useful when reviewing lists of content with multiple tags. It also lets you choose which tags to apply to your repository item.

The Shared tag helps you filter just the content that is specific to you. The Personal tag makes it easy for you to filter just your personal My Content.

WebFOCUS provides built-in search capabilities that make it easy to find content in your folders using a variety of different criteria. Using a simple text bar found on the WebFOCUS Home Page, you can enter a search term to quickly display all content items that match that term. If you want to help narrow down your search results, you can also use the available search options to display all content items that match both that term and the criteria specified, making it easier to find exactly the piece of content that you need.

Your content is now ready to be used with InfoSearch. To perform a search, from the WebFOCUS Home Page, click Ask WebFOCUS to display the Ask WebFOCUS user interface, as shown in the following image.
