Folder Organization and Component Filenames
Component Filenames
Tip
You cannot rename a component
file, but you can use Save As to save a copy
of the component file with a new name. If you want to use the file
with the new name, you must update the other dashboard components
that include the affected file. For example, if you save an indicator
file with a new name, you must update that filename in any dashboard
that uses that indicator.
Folder Organization
In SAS BI Dashboard 4.3 and later, the storage folders
for SAS BI Dashboard exist in the following places:
This storage implementation is necessary because SAS
BI Dashboard objects have both a metadata component and a content
component.
In SAS BI Dashboard
4.3 and later, you can store dashboard component files in SAS folders
by using the location of your choice. You can use your own naming
conventions and standards. You can organize components into projects
that are easier to identify and use.
Tip
Organize folders that contain
dashboard objects such that any folder does not contain more than
100 objects. The response time for navigating through the folders
remains below a second when individual folders contain fewer than
about 100 objects.
