Navigating Viewed Reports
About Navigation Features
A report might have
these navigation features:
-
A report might be divided into one or more sections. Each section can use a different query method and have a different layout.
-
A report might include links to another report or to a web page.
Use the Navigation Pane
The navigation pane
on the left contains both the Table of Contents and Section
Data panels. You can use the Table of Contents panel
to work with sections and to switch between sections. You can use
the Section Data panel to select data and
to specify whether objects are synchronized.

If you view a different section and then return to a section that contains group breaks,
SAS Web Report Studio displays the most recently viewed group break category.
View Different Report Sections
A report can be divided
into one or more sections. Each section can use a different query
method and have a different layout. To view a report section, complete
either of these tasks:
-
Use the navigational box in the right corner. Enter a number in the box to change sections.
-
Select View
Section and then select the
section that you want to open.
-
Use the drop-down box in the Table of Contents panel to select a section.
Follow Links to Other Reports or to a Web Page
Reports, stored processes,
tables, graphs, geographical maps, images, or pieces of text can contain
links. If linkable, text or the data cells in a table are underlined.
For graphs, you must know whether the markers are linked or not. You
also must know whether there is a link in a geographical map.
Note: The links in a stored process
cannot be created in SAS Web Report Studio. The links have to be added
when the stored process is created in another product, such as SAS
Enterprise Guide.
When you follow a link
to another report or to a web page, the way they display is different.
If the report contents open in the same browser window, there will be
a link to return to the source report. However, a web page opens in
a new browser window, so there will not be a button or link to return
to the source report.
