The designer interface
enables users to easily create reports or dashboards that can be saved
and viewed on either a mobile device or in a Web viewer that is provided
with SAS Visual Analytics. The designer interface is part of the SAS
Visual Analytics product that enables someone with either the Analysis
or Administration role to view, interact with, and create reports.
Simply open an existing report and interact with the information based
on your current needs. Report authors can easily point and click to
query central sources of data. You can drag-and-drop tables, graphs,
and gauges to create a well-designed report. All of this is accomplished
by using the designer interface, which runs in a Web browser. You
do not need to understand a programming language.
Report authors can easily
create basic queries and reports based on data sources that have been
provided by an administrator. They can also update reports that were
created from visual explorations. You can also create reports by importing
objects or visual explorations from other reports. Report authors
can also define interactions (either filtering or brushing) for report
objects and include SAS analytical results into a single report.
