[3] Adding and Managing Data Tables

 

 

You must select the data table you want to use in a Panopticon workbook. The data table definition can be unique to a single workbook. You can also save the data table definition locally for other users or publish the data table template.

Adding and managing data tables can be done via one of four ways:
 

q  Add Data Table Wizard in a Worbook

On the Data Table pane, click Add Data Table . The Add Data Table Wizard displays.

 

This wizard allows you to fetch data from data sources and the data library.

See Working with Add Data Table Wizard for more information.

 

q  Edit Data Table Wizard in a Workbook

On the Data Table pane, select a data table in the drop-down list and then click either of these Edit Data Table icons:

·          for data table saved to the workbook

·          for data table saved to the data library

The Data Table Editor displays.
