home page report. This report can be specifically set for each User or User Group for all

application.

Other option is to let all users enter at a default Home Page Report. A standard template for the Home Report page can be used and more details can be found in the Home Page article. Alternatively any other style of report could be used for the Home

CXO

Software will automatically center all reports within the available space determined by the device on which the user is accessing the application. If the user zooms the display, the application will arrange the display of the objects within the report for optimal viewing by the user.

Reports & Analysis

CXO

Software allows a user with no or limited knowledge of the source system to take maximum advantage of

an OLAP analysis. Every report has a pre-defined logical analysis flow that guides the user from high level overviews to detailed analysis. Check the analytical capabilities per report in the CXO-Cockpit Templates article.

Navigation

The user can navigate through CXO

Software reports by browsing

through menu groups. Each report in the menu has a unique name explaining the contents of the report.

Each menu item

is represented by a report preview, which gives a user immediate understanding of how the report looks and which CXO-Cockpit Template has been used to create it. If the user

cannot identify in which menu group the report is stored,

open any menu and by typing the name, or part of the name of the report, all reports that match the wildcard search criteria will be shown, regardless of the folder they are in.
