SAS Web Report Studio Menus

About the Availability of Menus and Menu Selections

All of the following conditions influence whether a menu or menu selection is available to use:
  • Your authorization. For example, you must be an advanced user to schedule or distribute reports. The options that you have can also depend on settings that your system administrator has selected.
  • Your location in the SAS Web Report Studio application. For example, some tasks are available only if you are viewing a report.
  • The type of report that you are viewing.
  • The currently selected object. For example, you cannot change a bar chart to a crosstabulation table.
  • Whether the section query has been defined. For example, if the section query has not been defined, then you cannot create a section filter.
  • The type of data that is being used. For example, you cannot use detail data if the report section is using multidimensional data.
  • Whether the report is saved. For example, you cannot distribute a report that has not been saved.

About the Report Menus

The report menus contain options that apply to the entire report or to the currently displayed report section, including the objects in the section. Actions include creating a new report, adding a new section, refreshing data, and synchronizing a section. The report menus are available on the main menu bar when a report is displayed.
