Select report suite from a cell
Selecting a report suite from a cell makes it easy to refresh data blocks using different report suites. Instead of creating completely new reports with separate data blocks, you can refresh data blocks with a report suite selected from a cell.
Selecting a report suite from a cell is helpful when you have:
- Multiple report suites that are similar or identical to each other in structure.
- Complicated data block formats that include customized components and layouts.
To select a report suite from a cell, first build a data block and assign multiple report suites to a cell outside of your data block. Then, use the Report suite from cell panel to refresh your data blocks from different report suites.
