Modifying the Data in a Viewed Report

If you have the appropriate role, you can modify the data in a report that you are viewing. To change the data in a report, complete these steps:

Select either DataSelect Data or OptionsSelect Data to open the Select Data dialog box.
Add or remove data items from the Selected data items list.
Click OK.

Note: Modifications to the data do not change the underlying report unless you have permission to save over the original report.

Another way to change data in a report is to drag a data item from the Section Data panel and drop it onto tables and graphs.

The following display shows the Gender data item being dragged and then dropped on a list table.

Note: You cannot use drag and drop to hide data items. Use the Assign Data dialog box to hide data items.
